Playoffs? Playoffs!?!? PLAYOFFS!!!!!?
--------------------------------------
PLEASE NOTE:
A Dealbreaker Pick may be taken from you by someone else also using a Dealbreaker. This is called "nuclear option"
driver picking. Yes, this is unfair and everyone may use up their Dealbreakers going after the same driver, in the same week.

--------------------------------------
Everybody pick a driver each week. Nobody picks the same driver, picking is first come first served. The thread will be posted weekly. By rule, I get to pick Jeff Burton each week if I am so compelled. The newly enshrined Cribbage Hall Of Famer and Racelog co-host Keeping Score gets to pick Juan Pablo Montoya every week. Tally up the points of the driver yous pick each week and reset the field after the Richmond race. This will be a 26 week play-in to the Chase For The Cup.
This means there will only be 43 spots available in this contest. SO SIGN UP EARLY AND OFTEN(you mults yous).


Then, starting with the first Chase race at Chicagoland Speedway in Joliet, the Top 12 posters shall be assigned to the driver corresponding in the SPRINT CUP standings. They keep this driver for the duration of the Chase. The chosen 12 will also get to pick a driver out of the Chase to make things more interesting. And rack up the points for the championship.

Confused? Good. Reward? Yes. A prize of undetermined greatness will be given out after the season.

1. If you pick someone and one of the players ahead of you in the standings want that driver, you have to pick another driver. This will go on for the rest of the season, just like NASCAR. If you don't pick another driver by the drop of the green flag you will be assigned the best available driver based on qualifying. A poster can only have their pick bumped ONCE per week. Your second pick will be protected from getting bumped a second time. Unless someone uses a Dealbreaker award on you.

*Dealbreaker award
This rule has been added to let someone who picks a race winner to be given a Dealbreaker award. It would let the poster either pick bump anyone(except the leader) ahead of them in the standings or take somebodys second pick. It can be saved and used at anytime during the regular season, even right before the drop of the green flag. The Dealbreaker award is a regular season gimmick and none will be given during the playoff season. The awards can transfer to the playoffs, but all deals must be complete by the last regular season race Week 26 at Richmond.

Any players who get their pick bumped or somebody goes and uses the Dealbreaker on them, they will be PM'ed in a timely manner as possible. Dealbreaker awards are able to be bought, sold, or bartered. Players don't have to use them every week or ever use them at all and sell them to players that would really need it late in the regular season. The Dealbreaker may be dealt for straight cash homie, or you can trade some of your points, or work out something to job a player ahead of you in the standings.

Shenanigans are endorsed and encouraged by the Rules Cabal. All trades, deals, and any other kind of brilliant schemes must be presented in the weekly thread and approved by the Rules Cabal for them to be used that week. The value of the Dealbreaker award has yet to been set. I'll leave that up to those involved in the dealings. And let anyone say a single cross word about the Rules Cabal decisions and watch what happens.

2. Driver picking priority will be based off of the weekly standings. Enforcement of rule #1 is ironclad and absolute, unless I feel otherwise or my belly is filled with party liquor. Whichever occurs first.
3. Up to 43 people will be eligible for the contest during the first 26 races of the season. Once the Chase To The Cup starts, only the top 12 will advance to the playoffs.
4. You can sign up and never make a pick, you'll be assigned the best available driver based on qualifying that week.
5. Failure to abide by these rules will be dealt with the most harsh and unfair of judgements by the NASCAR Pick 'em rules cabal, err, committee.

Overall Standings

Smiley face for Peoria Matt, Kevin Harvick grabs the checkers. Yet PM still drops one spot in the standings, 29 points back of new leader Terry’s Peeps. Gloop falls from 3rd to 7th only score 53 points this week. Props go out to UMN for having the only Non-Chase driver inside the Top 10. Next race is Saturday night in Charlotte for the Bank Of ‘Murica 500. I am not on call and the GF is out of town, it’s gonna be a thing!

Hey can anyone tell me why Jr is driving that Hendrik.com paint job? Is Nascar struggling that bad that the most popular driver didn't have his normal sponsors for all races?

I think it is quite the opposite. While the big bag of money from a corporation is cool, having Nascar's most popular driver having your website on the hood is cooler. Please let me say the following in the nicest way possible, have you been to www.Hendrickcars.com? They have a massive selection of classic and muscle cars for sale. It's like a collection of matchbox cars come to life. I advise you to go check them out. A sponsor for the Sprint Cup car for one race is somehweres in the ballpark of 400K per race. 100K for the Nationwide Series if you ain't that big a shooter. Now after clicking around Hendrickcars.com a bit, that comes out to about 20 cars or 40 of the kinda regular ones. Rick Hendrick will make his money back. There is no guarantee that Amp Energy or Mountain Dew or whoever who will sell 400K worth of product to make their money back on the sponsor of Dale Jr.'s car.

You have Thanksgiving to Valentines Day to be Nascar free. The seconds half of the NFL season builds a bridge to Daytona. :D
