Season II Preparations
To start the new season, The Bookie needs to know who is keeping their end-of-year horse and who is seeking to trade-up ponies. At the end of the regular season, the Analysts had these steeds:
The Bookie – Colts
Big Tuna – Broncos
Kal Krome – Seahawks
The Strategist – Rams
Little Tuna – Patriots
Minds Blank – Packers
Wise Orangutan – Chargers
The starters rarely play in the fourth game of preseason, so here are the key dates to start the new season:
After Preseason Week 2 (August 24) – Announce if you are releasing your current team.
After Preseason Week 3 (September 1) – Select a new team.
After Preseason Week 4 (September 8) – Send the Bookie your share of the Purse for the year
For Analysts who relinquish teams, new teams will be selected in reverse order of last year’s season standings:
1) Little Tuna (3 Trifectas, 32 Correct Picks) – coin flip if necessary
1) The Bookie (3 Trifectas, 32 Correct Picks) – coin flip if necessary
3) The Strategist (4 Trifectas)
4) Wise Orangutan (5 Trifectas)
5) Kal Krome (6 Trifectas, 34 Correct Picks)
6) Big Tuna (6 Trifectas, 35 Correct Picks)
7) Minds Blank (6 Trifectas, 38 Correct Picks)
New Analyst(s) pick before returning Analysts.
