Summer Sheep 2014 official thread

By my count, I scored 143 points. Ouch.

 

Three No. 1 answers and three No. 2 answers that were one point off the No. 1 answer couldn't save me from having a horrendous week as TWO 1-point answers and ONE 2-point answers brought my score down to a 134. Thinking after a solid spring season I'm going to open the summer season in the cellar.
Edit: On the bright side, it looks like this is going to be my drop week as I can't imagine doing worse than this...

 

With -19 points for the week, I'm guessing I'll be somewhere in the middle of the top 10.

 

I lost 15 points on the Lions and another for switching from poutine to bacon but at least I'm ahead of dreunc1542 after Week 1.

 

Took a 156 for the opener. Stunned the Lions were not championed more for the losers they are.

 

I figured the Arizona Cardinals with 23 losing seasons in the last 30 years was a safe pick there, looks like I figured wrong.
Switching from We Will Rock You to YMCA (on the basis of the two baseball games I went to this year) and switching from Mark Twain to Mark Zuckerberg while completely blanking on Cuban were stupid mistakes as well.

 

That makes two of us, Huggy. Can't believe there was such a groundswell for Thin Mints ... when we've had polls on here before, peanut butter cookies and Samoas usually beat them.

Oh well ... Diego and I will eat all the Peanut Butter Patties.

 

But remember, the best answer isn't always the sheep answer. I figured Thin Mints would be what popped into people's heads first, although they're not the best tasting.

 

7 No. 1s and a 1-pointer. Screw you Canada with your poutine and your Maple Leafs.

 

Two 1-pointers in the same week?!? Oh, the shame. The pain.

 

My worst question was the one I submitted. Oh well, good week for me though.

 

I lost 24 points for answering Philadelphia Eagles and Mark Twain. Had Cuban as my answer but switched it late. I was blindsided by the Browns, knowing how good they were a half-century ago.

After getting all but two points on the first seven questions, I lost 26 total for a 177. (20 points ahead of Killick however).

Can't wait to see the standings.
