    If this is confusing, let me know and I'll try to clarify...

    I've been meaning to post a BIF on here of my own. This is my first year participating in the NFL 33 fun, and I've been really impressed with the generosity displayed by all. This side-BIF will be open to all 31 current BIF participants.

    I'm a lifelong Bengals fan...they suck but perhaps this can drum up some interest in their remaining games. They don't have their quarterback, nor WR1, nor most of their LBs due to injury. RBs have taken turns getting injured. I think two TEs gone so far as well. Head coach has a foot out of the door. The dumpster fire is in full effect.

    Remaining games:
    @ LA Chargers
    vs. LA Raiders
    @ Cleveland
    @ Pittsburgh

    BIF:
    Pick the points scored by the Bengals each game. I'll be using the difference between your predicted scores for each game and the actual points the Bengals scored each game (not the cumulative for all four). It doesn't matter if you're over or under.

    Tie Breakers:
    #1: How many of the final four games do the Bengals win?
    #2: How many total points will the historically poor defense give up over the four games (Price Is Right rules here)
    #3: How much will Vontaze Burfict get fined over the last 4 games? (I'll be relying on published information here, but I'm assuming we won't actually need 3 tie breakers)
    I'll make up a fourth tie breaker if we need one...

    If you win, your box will include at least a DBH b2 and a Life Is Like...
    Plus whatever else comes out of the cellar. My only sincere request - please don't trade (or sell) them. Drink with friends. Or dome them solo. But enjoy them either way.

    I think (if it's OK with everybody) send your guesses by BM. That way nobody feels like they're picking numbers too close to anyone else. I'll try to figure out how to post everybody's numbers after I get them. Deadline will be 4:05 PM EST this Sunday (kickoff time with the Chargers). Best of luck to everybody!

    The Troegs sounds really good, and I've enjoyed the few things I've been able to try from Industrial Arts.

    Just an update - I've gotten entries for only about half the guys in the BIF. There's another 3 hours or so before the deadline - I'd love to see everybody enter. Don't want to see anybody miss out on a chance for some big stouts!

    I hate that they hit after we switched teams. And as much as I dislike the Dolphins, I’m glad that they got a last second TD to win. It hits @swenny916’s new LIF, too, right?

    Realized I haven't done a LIF this season so here goes! In case you haven't noticed, the Lions still suck. Especially the offense. How many points will they score, total, in the final 3 games?

    They have the Bills on the road, Vikings at home, and the Packers on the Frozen Tundra.

    Open only to those who haven't hit 33 this season. If there is a tie I will use The Price Is Right rule to determine the winner. Guesses open until 1PM EDT this Sunday. Good luck!
