    Congrats on the win @RuckIt . NE won’t lose twice in a row and won’t lose to Matt Patricia

    Definitely not a sure thing with this Pats defense.

    The only thing better than a Patriots loss, is a Patriots loss that puts me back in the running for more beer.

    See you all next week.

    Ok, so we have 2 options here;

    1 - The 13 people eliminated this week join a new league and keep going until the Top 6 are decided. The difficultly is that there's no safeguards in place to prevent someone from picking a team they've already selected.

    2 - The 13 people eliminated this week split 21 boxes from those eliminated prior to Week 3, and the competition ends. Each of us would get 1 box, and a random selection of 8 would get a second box. Anyone interested in going for Round 2 could re-join a new competition.

    I'm happy to do either, but we need to make a decision TODAY. If you were eliminated today, Please vote - simple majority by 8am Tuesday morning wins.

    Ugh.. tough choice but seems like a tracking nightmare.. plus a bird in the hand is worth 2(or 8) in the Bush..

    So I’ll say option 2: split the boxes

    I'm going to vote for option 2, split all the boxes. After the chaos that has happened in weeks 1 and 3, I'm happy with taking my box (or two) and running.

    Option 2. The idea of a rejoin is appealing also if you are tracking interest in folks interested in a Round 2 of this frustrating competition.

    Seems Option 2 is the choice so ill roll with it.

    Really just because no one should have the headache of keeping track of picks.

    Option 2 works for me.

    My vote doesn't count but put me down as in for round two. Need some redemption after that week one debacle :poop:.

    would have voted Opt 1, but looks like Opt 2 is the heavy favorite so I'm fine with that.

    Option 2 it is. Thanks for running this. It would probably be easier for you if any of us has a tiny bit of skill.
    I will be in for round 2.

    Option 2 so that we can get a 2nd round to all redeem our embarrassing performances....

    Splitting the boxes is fine.
    Although I'd be interested in participating in another pool. Let me know if that happens please.
