First Annual GNG Prediction/ Guess division one final standings Contest.

Next 2 weeks are chaulk full of great games. look at Tuesday.

ALVIRNE 9-5 AT PINKY 9-5.

WEST 8-6 AT MEMORIAL 7-6.

MERRIMACK 11-3 AT NORTH11-3.
GAME OF THE NIGHT. Has anyone mentioned that Jackson King is out the year {wrist}. Well if not you read it here first. What else is new. Sports forum has more scoops then DAIRY QUEEN.

SOUTH 8-7 AT TRINITY 12-2.

TIMBY 0-14 AT LONDONDERRY 2-12. Very important game for the contest. I jumped hard on that bandwagon and got them 15th.

Teams are going to be sliding up and down those standings these next 2 weeks.

I will be at the game of the year. BG girls at WINNIE part 2. I missed the North game ,had to work late . Don't mind the drive, this should be a dandy.

Didn't want to throw salt on Merrimack's wounds. That's the 4th major injury for their team this season. Amazing that Goodridge's team is 14-3. (11-3 in the regular season)

I don't get it Bert. One of this site's functions is to deciminate information. Not trying to pour salt in wounds. A few years back when BG football had a ton of injuries{ literal and figurative} to the football team {my son included}, I was on here posting about it.

Onto THE CONTEST.

Usually I am this site's FIGUREITOUTOLOGIST {GNG word}. I can by this time of year have a rough idea of who is finishing where, and give probable matchups.

Can't do it.

It's like we are in the thick jungle in South America. We have our machetes out, and are wacking and cutting, but getting nowhere. The one absolute thing I know is Timby is finishing 19th. EVERYTHING else is up for grabs.

new top 5 as of tonight.

trinity
north
salem
spaulding
merrimack.

STILL PLENTY OF SHUFFLING OF THE DECK BEFORE THIS CARD GAME IS OVER.

West beating memorial hurt me

good for them if only they could play in cities games every Tuesday and Firday

Londonderry 57 - Memorial 55.

Huge win for those of us that have the Lancers making the tourny

Nine entries including me have them finishing at 15.

T&F must be running through the streets of Londonderry setting furniture on fire.

(please note - this is tongue in cheek - I do not want to give the impression that T&F is an arsonist but I do suspect he owns a Blue Foam Finger)

12 of us sports slueths {me included} picked Pinkerton to finish 9th or lower. OUCH.

How hard could it be?

Very Hard.

If it ended today we would have a tie between FOXY LADY and T@F with 9 points each. Anyone ,but T@F please Lord. FOXY LADY if you win remember I'm Married. You get to look at the eye candy, but that's it. Maybe I'll let you take a picture for whatever social media site your on. No reason your friends and family shouldn't share in your big day.

Next in line is myself and loyalty33 with 8 points.. We all know by next week when I am writing this I will be the winner , but it's good for you people to feel like you have a chance.
Loyalty33 told me the only reason he entered was the time we went out for lunch,and ended up in Montreal. That was a great lunch. No we are not going to Montreal, don't even think about it.

NHSPORTS11,SEACOASTDAD,JUSTIN, AND RW make up the next group at 7. A win here, a win there and you guys are dining with the man, the myth, the legend.

FREELUNCH, AND BERT are next with 6 points each. Kind of pulling for Bert. Would love to see who he is. I believe he lives in Merrimack, and I also believe he knows me, and I know him.

NHHOOPSFAN,GBEAR,BIGMAN, AND TARRIER next with 5 points each. You guys are the KRAMER of this CONTEST. Remember he saw the pretty girl, then 5 minutes later he slaps down his money "I'M OUT".

Seriously, everyone is still in it. The bottom of this pig pile is what's going win this thing. Keene at Londonderry becomes a game that I might go to. This whole season has been nuts, no reason to think the last week will be any different.

GNG, T & F and a FOXY LADY meeting for lunch.

I could reach into my literary keyboard...........


.......But I won't.

I will be heading to the 99 for lunch today. Scope the place out, make sure it's acceptable to my standards. I then will go to The Flats to make sure the lunch menu is acceptable to the people involved in this contest.

The things I do for this contest to ensure the winner has a great time.

The fact that you are buying when I win this contest makes any place you choose acceptable.

GNG I want to go to The Flat they have better Martini's. I hope T&F and I do not tie so I can listen to all the basketball knowledge you have.

That my good lady would take longer then lunch

Still up for grabs.

Central over North certainly helped some people.{not me}

Going to be an interesting week to see how this thing shakes out. Very interesting.

Remember we started this with 6 games left. It seems like months ago. Imagine if we did this at the start of the season.

Fourteen tried and true contestants. Who will be victorious?

Will it be THE BEAR who considers himself GOLDEN? Possible.

How about the man who love TUESDAYS and FRIDAYS? could be.

Don't count out our version of Bob Lobel and Eddie Andelman, TARRIER and JUSTIN. You never know.

RW VOGELY {sounds like a lawyer's name doesn't it?}. His picks don't completely suck.

The LADY who thinks she is a FOX. She might be clever, but is she clever enough to win?

I know BERT is 54 and thinks he is the 1, but will he want to bring ERNIE with him to lunch?

It's a long way to drive from the SEACOAST for this DAD. Chance of having to make the drive 7 %

BIGMAN's sheet looks as good as any. If a division 2 guru wins this. I'll be ticked. On second thought, he seems like a good dude.

Not LOYALTY 33. I had lunch with him last week. The next tab he picks up will be his first.

Then there is FREE LUNCH. We all know why he is in the contest. Watch out what you wish for.

NH SPORTS 11 and NH HOOPS FAN. I LOVED both your sheets 6 games ago. Still a chance, but I liked your sheets better 6 games ago

Then there is me GNG, always save the best for last.

I look at my sheet and wonder how the heck I will win. Cheat maybe . I'm sure by the time the dusts settles my sheet will somehow be number 1.

That's what winners do. They win


GOOD LUCK EVERYBODY

I'm not sure who's going to win this pool....fortunately it won't be me. I believe I have 6 correct and if Exeter held on in regulation I would have had 10 correct. No sour grapes here....just pointing out once again how closely things were bunched this year. I've already filled out my brackets....the bottom half of the bracket is not the place to be (Salem, North, Spaulding, Merrimack). I think that's a better 4some than Trinity, Central, Pinkerton, Alvirne especially if Floras is able to go for Merrimack.

The road victories for more points as opposed to less points for a home victory is a sham. Spaulding should've received the #4 seed over Central. They had the same record as Central and beat them head to head. Those 5/4 points system for road/home victories is out of whack.

I'M gonna wait until NHIAA comes out with final standings. Never know what they are going to do. My head hurts bad enough this morning, never mind trying to figure this out.

Good call. Last season in D1 girls for 2 days Dover was #4 and Memorial #5 until Dover discovered a "clerical error" with regards to home/away victories. 36 hours before the prelims started it changed to #4 Memorial and #5 Dover.

Well my crystal ball was a bit foggy, but I did have Trinity, North, Salem, and Central in my top 5 and in the right order. Merrimack, my number 2, killed my sheet. I also took a beating with West, and PA got healthy and pulled together to finish much stronger than I thought they would.

Floras not playing in the Central game killed along with their lose to Winny killed me

I was close with each teams record but not at all right with their place

the only thing I was off on was Merrimack finishing top 4 and Central I had them slipping, everything else I was only a place or so off along with Memorial I had them tenth

It was fun

We have a tie between Foxy Lady and NH Sports11 with 7 points each.

There are no ties in the GNG contest. You want ties go to a mens store, or a soccer game. This is basketball.

But first let's talk about the losers. What a pathetic bunch of bannana's we have.

Seacoast dad- 2 points. The only person not to pick Trinity 1st comes in last. Go figure. I don't mean that literally.

Bert-3 points. Thats' like getting a 300 on the old SAT'S. Jeez they give you 200 points for writing your name.

Justin, RW, Tarrier,and gbear- 4 points. This group dissapointed me the most, They go to all the games. This is my ASNEM group {mensa backwards}

T@F, BIGMAN-5 points. BiGman no problem. You beat out the other d2 guy by 3 points. T@F . I hope you take a long hard look in the mirror this am. I was thinking of sending a PM to the moderators of this board and have you banished for your lack of hoop knowledge. You my friend had better start paying attention.

Loyalty 33, Free lunch, NH hoops fan, and GNG- 6 points. Exeter beats Dover and a couple of us in this group [me included} are sitting at 10 points and laughing at you pathetic losers. Instead, we are now citizens of LOSERVILLE. Population 12, soon to be 13.

Foxy lady and NH sports11- 7 points each. Nothing to brag about. You got 12 wrong. It's like your King and Queen of a village of idiots.



This was a blast. Next year we do it from the start of the season.
