SmashMouth Pioneer League R1 PLAYOFFS

SmashMouth NFL Playoffs are here!
All Round 1 SmashUps and scoring will be done via the app. If you are already registered, please use your existing log-in info (User ID & pw) to access the Fantasy Football app. If you are NOT registered, check your e-mail for your User ID and Password. 


If you find yourself in the Fantasy Basketball section, simply click the SmashMouth Fantasy Football logo in the upper right corner. On your Dashboard will be your Round 1 SmashMatch (it's currently labeled "IND #2" but will read "Pioneer League" soon). If you have a Bye a) screw you and b) you won't have anything for now although a placeholder is being created.

There are only 4 games, so the lineups are now 12 total players (we removed 1 RB and 1 LB) and you must have 3 per game. (The app won't let you screw this up! Thank you Lord!)

PLEASE NOTE: All picks will be backed up by the system. If any bugs occur during your SmashUp, please advise asap.

There's also a new pool to enter in
SmashMouth NBA 
1-ON-1 POOL 10 is free! Why not give it a shot?!?

Ah, the playoffs. The most wonderful time of the year. Kinda like the holidays, except we can ALL participate in the holidays! So at this time, we must first bid adieu to 2014's Fantastic Faux, our esteemed four Outlier non-qualifiers:

DeLANDIS BROOKS (2 - 14)
TONY D'AMATO (3 - 13)
QUENTIN WALKER (4 - 12)
MICHAEL WILLIAMS (5 - 11)

There's always next year. Except for D'AMATO. Good riddance.

W17 RAPID RECAP
ROB TALLIA (10 - 6) -- 137
LOU AURICCHIO (9 - 7) -- 198
ROB crawls backward into the playoffs. LOU cashes in with Unique Pick Demetrius McCray.

GLENN ARONOW (10 - 6) -- 176
LISA CALITRI (7 - 9) -- 196
High total season point scorer and net point differential winner GLENN loses luster with a loss to Spoiler Specialist LISA. No matter, GLENN and ROB deserve each other!


CHUCK ROSS (10 - 6) -- 177
CHARLIE ALDRICH (6 - 10) -- 174
CHUCK hangs on for a well-deserved playoff debut.


BILL ROARK (11 - 5) -- 196
JAMIE BURTON (6 - 10) -- 175
Like the good military man he is, BILL requires and seeks no help from others by taking matters -- and the ASC #1 seed -- into his own hands.


TONY d'BOTo (3 - 13) -- 140
BILL CRONE (7 - 9) -- 204
BILL pummels the ghost of ass clown ingrate TONY who disappeared on the league and dissed on the fee. Happy holidays, prick. You're that guy. Never be that guy.

ANTHONY ANNESE (9 - 7) -- 186
CRAIG ROSENBAUM (9 - 7) -- 159
OOF! ANT clubs CRAIG in the gut to KO him from the playoffs.

ROB BAILEY (10 - 6) -- 205
Respect to ROB who earns his second Divisional Title in 2 years and the illustrious 1st round bye. Jerk.

VINCE CALITRI (9 - 7) -- 221
BRUCE WILLIAMS (10 - 6) -- 177
Unfortunately, we won't get a hell-raising rematch as VINCE fell just short of avoiding Outlier relegation. But man, was this one fun!

RICHARD BROWNE (6 - 10) -- 140
TONY BEDINI (6 - 10) -- 213
TONY peaks a bit late for the playoffs, but The Outlier crown is well within reach.

CHRIS PALUMBO (11 - 5) -- 178
KEVIN CARTER (8 - 8) -- 160
Santa Claus looks an awful lot like Antonio Brown, eh CHRIS?

JEFF NIGRO (6 - 10) -- 160
MICHAEL WILLIAMS (5 - 11) -- 192
Giant killer JEFF gets sandwiched with losses by two time Outlier reject MICHAEL. Any given Sunday indeed.

JIM PEPE (8 - 8) -- 160
GARY LAZARUS (12 - 4) -- 157
This one was never in doubt from the moment it appeared on the schedule. Word.

JIM GARDNER (12 - 4) -- 198
JOE HENDERSON (10 - 6) -- 140
JIM takes the high road with a high brow thrashing of JOE, assuring #1 seed and home field throughout the playoffs. Well done, Doc.

MARIO HENRY (9 - 7) -- 215
QUENTIN WALKER (4 - 12) -- 133
MARIO completes a grand holiday weekend with The Weekly Smash/Maidzo and the NSC final playoff seed.


JOHN INCANTALUPO (7 - 9) -- 159
KEVIN KRUEGER (7 - 9) -- 176
All leads up to an instant Outlier R1 rematch!

  
SmashMatch Of The Week  
LEE FINKEL (9 - 7) -- 208
TOM MAIDEN (8 - 8) -- 176
The Chargers may be total losers, but LEE is most assuredly not! Yet!

JEFF NIGRO (6 - 9) @ MICHAEL WILLIAMS (4 - 11) 
JEFF, having beaten best Coaches in league, will typically falter here.

JIM PEPE (7 - 8) @ GARY LAZARUS (12 - 3)
Who invited this guy GARY anyway? Oh, never mind.

JIM GARDNER (11 - 4) @ JOE HENDERSON (10 - 5)

W16 RAPID RECAP
LISA CALITRI (6 - 9) -- 207
ROB TALLIA (10 - 5) -- 129
LISA takes to this spoiler business like it's a friggin spin class!

GLENN ARONOW (10 - 5) -- 171
DeLANDIS BROOKS (2 - 13) -- 135
Somehow, GLENN has still not clinched a playoff spot. Or maybe he has... the supercomputer is still, uh, computing.

MICHAEL WILLIAMS (4 - 11) -- 177
LOU AURICCHIO (8 - 7) -- 173
MICHAEL's love affair, bromance, man-crush, etc. with Tony Romo pays huge dividends again.

ROB BAILEY (9 - 6) -- 153
BILL ROARK (10 - 5) -- 166
Suddenly, ROB is inspired to seek changes to the scoring system. In W16. After a close loss in a pivotal game. Hmmm.

CHUCK ROSS (9 - 6) -- 141
MARIO HENRY (8 - 7) -- 173
Sure, CHUCK, lose the ONE game that would help yours truly out. Stanks.

CHARLIE ALDRICH (6 - 9) -- 154
BILL CRONE (6 - 9) -- 161
Navy pummels Army. Aaaa-gain.

CRAIG ROSENBAUM (9 - 6) -- 157
JAMIE BURTON (6 - 9) -- 168
Despite the L, CRAIG can at least claim he was not the first WebMDer to be ousted from the playoffs.

TOM MAIDEN (8 - 7) -- 140
TONY D'BOTO (3 - 12) -- 130
Whoa, TONY The Non-Paying Non-Playing DeadBeat is far better as a bot (and equally responsible on adult matters) than the real person. MAIDZO gets out of Botville barely breathing.

ANTHONY ANNESE (8 - 7) -- 184
JOE HENDERSON (10 - 5) -- 164
Despite the rousing W and satisfaction of denting an old rival, ANT is eliminated from the playoffs.

RICHARD BROWNE (6 - 9) -- 152
BRUCE WILLIAMS (10 - 5) -- 166
BRUCE rides Unique Pick Jeremy Hill to the NSC East division title.

LEE FINKEL (8 - 7) -- 139

VINCE stays alive as apple is taken by LEE, but now comes the divisional showdown.

TONY BEDINI (5 - 10) -- 214
JOHN INCANTALUPO (7 - 8) -- 107
TONY's doubled up on his PEDs. It's working. A nice Weekly Smash/Maidzo slaughtering of The Outlier himself.

KEVIN CARTER (8 - 7) -- 134
GARY LAZARUS (12 - 3) -- 150
GARY's Smashcation is a smashing success all around.

QUENTIN WALKER (4 - 11) -- 192
JIM PEPE (7 - 8) -- 160
I'd like to thank TY Hilton, Le'Veon Bell, Jamaal Charles, Demaryius Thomas, Luke Kuechly and Jimmy Graham for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!

KEVIN KRUEGER (6 - 9) -- 142
JIM GARDNER (11 - 4) -- 187
Playoffs? We're talking about playoffs? KEVIN is staring at a possible 2nd to last seed in The Outlier tourney with this 5th straight loss. 

SmashMatch Of The Week  
CHRIS PALUMBO (10 - 5) -- 190
JEFF NIGRO (6 - 9) -- 192
Not only is he on a remarkable 5 game winning streak where he's taken down coaches with a collective 47-28 record, but he's.. wait, no, that alone is remarkable enough.

ROB BAILEY (9 - 5) @ BILL ROARK (9 - 5)

QUENTIN WALKER (3 - 11) @ JIM PEPE (7 - 7)
That certain someone shall do his part with a colossal butt whipping vs delinQUENTIN. Oh no I di'int! 

KEVIN KRUEGER (6 - 8) @ JIM GARDNER (10 - 4)
Snake-bitten KEVIN looks to save face and slimmer than wahfer playoff hopes. 

SmashMatch Of The Week  
CHRIS PALUMBO (10 - 4) @ JEFF NIGRO (5 - 9)
It's basically a pointless game, but how can we NOT shine a little light on the hottest player in SmashMouth Pioneer League Land?!? JEFF goes for 5 straight vs opponents with a combined 35-21 record.

TONY D'AMATO (3 - 10) -- 0* (FORFEIT)
Our first dead beat raises his infantile head.

CRAIG ROSENBAUM (8 - 5) -- 230
JIM GARDNER (9 - 4) -- 200
Massive road win for ROSENBAUM.

JOE HENDERSON (9 - 4) -- 244
DeLANDIS BROOKS (2 - 11) -- 179
Ain't no swoon happenin' here.

JOHN INCANTALUPO (7 - 6) -- 159
BRUCE WILLIAMS (9 - 4) -- 230
The lovable, affable, eminently huggable BRUCE gets back on track.

VINCE CALITRI (6 - 7) -- 209
JEFF NIGRO (4 - 9) -- 243
The Phoenix-like JEFF takes another impressive W while VIN finds his beach but loses his mojo.

KEVIN KRUEGER (6 - 7) -- 199
RICHARD BROWNE (6 - 7) -- 232
Reigning champ KEVIN must win out for even a slim shot at SuperSmash repetition glory.

GARY LAZARUS (10 - 3) -- 185
CHRIS PALUMBO (10 - 3) -- 210
Something tells us these chaps will meet again. CHRIS takes Unique Pick with Alex Smith, go figure.

QUENTIN WALKER (3 - 10) -- 225
KEVIN CARTER (8 - 5) -- 237
Checks are in the mail. Hopefully.

MARIO HENRY (7 - 6) -- 145
JIM PEPE (7 - 6) -- 245
And BAM! Weekly Smash/Maidzo goes to JIM with a +100, non- ARodg fueled blasting.

SmashMatch Of The Week 
LEE FINKEL (7 - 6) -- 206
CHUCK ROSS (8 - 5) -- 229
Just not a good week for former SuperSmash champions on the whole.

GLENN has sights on all ROBs losing.

CHARLIE will be hard-pressed in this away game to do the SmashUp death crawl he pulled on Anthony W13.

LISA CALITRI (4 - 8) @ ANTHONY ANNESE (6 - 6)
Two old foes go toe to toe with LISA in the unfamiliar early spoiler role.

Two division heavies trade blows in this slugfest.

QUENTIN WALKER (3 - 9) @ KEVIN CARTER (7 - 5) 
Q can save a little face with an upset road W. Very little.

MARIO HENRY (7 - 5) @ JIM PEPE (6 - 6)
Loser is looking rather Outlierly. 

SmashMatch Of The Week 
LEE FINKEL (7 - 5) @ CHUCK ROSS (7 - 5)

Enter our 1-ON-1 POOL #5 now for free! 


ENTER NOW!

SmashMouth NFL Coaches... rest easy as there is no Thursday game this week. Who loves ya?

Here's the W13 RAPID RECAP:
CHUCK ROSS (7 - 5) -- 202
GLENN ARONOW (8 - 4) -- 196
The CHUCKster is for real.

LOU AURICCHIO (7 - 5) -- 192
ROB TALLIA (8 - 4) -- 204
ROB slinks his way to another W.

LISA CALITRI (4 - 8) -- 175
KEVIN CARTER (7 - 5) -- 206
KEVIN riding high in early NSC wild card scramble.

BILL ROARK (8 - 4) -- 168
GARY LAZARUS (10 - 2) -- 178
Leave it to the legal eagle to find every possible caveat with a rule wrinkle, misunderstand it upside down and backwards and still pull off the nail-biting win.

ANTHONY ANNESE (6 - 6) -- 245
CHARLIE ALDRICH (5 - 7) -- 156
Ever delinquent CHARLIE stirs the ire of ANT with a 12:40pm Sunday first pick... and pays dearly. ANT just gets paid, $60 in fact with The Weekly Smash/Maidzo waylaying.

JIM PEPE (6 - 6) -- 243
JAMIE BURTON (4 - 8) -- 172
Order is restored to this and perhaps other universes.

TOM MAIDEN (6 - 6) -- 146
BILL CRONE (4 - 8) -- 227
TOM nearly delivers his namesake Maidzo to BILL.

BRUCE WILLIAMS (8 - 4) -- 190
LEE FINKEL (7 - 5) -- 232
Love was in the air.

TONY BEDINI (3 - 9) -- 188
TONY D'AMATO (3 - 9) -- 195
TONY B. loses his 4th straight by an unprecedented combined total of 33 points.

ROB BAILEY (7 - 5) -- 227
CRAIG ROSENBAUM (7 - 5) -- 212
ROB is unclear on the SmashMouth NBA prize pools, but that doesn't deter his winning NFL way.

DeLANDIS BROOKS (2 - 10) -- 167
JOHN INCANTALUPO (7 - 5) -- 178
DeLANDIS has that inestimable ability to make otherwise clueless opponents feel like they know what they're doing.

RICHARD BROWNE (5 - 7) --  179
VINCE CALITRI (6 - 6) -- 215
VINCE ready to run for the playoffs.

JEFF NIGRO (3 - 9) -- 201
CHRIS PALUMBO (9 - 3) -- 164
Sudden world beater JEFF perhaps thinks we had a 10-game exhibition season to start?

MARIO HENRY (7 - 5) -- 226
MICHAEL WILLIAMS (2 - 9) -- 143
MARIO takes down the Unique Pick with Shareece Wright shutting out Steve Smith.

JIM GARDNER (9 - 3) -- 217
QUENTIN WALKER (3 - 9) -- 156
Woe is Q. 

SmashMatch Of The Week
KEVIN KRUEGER (6 - 6) -- 177
JOE HENDERSON (8 - 4) -- 215
Swoonless JOE just might need to be taken seriously.

ENTER NOW!


Now, back to the beloved game that the Kansas City Chiefs play from time to time -- NFL football and our beloved SmashMouth NFL! 

NOTE: The 3 Thanksgiving Day games are some of the best W13 matchups, so W13 SmashBoard will follow shortly and feature NINE (9) Marquee Matchups total, all 3 Thursday and 6 Sunday games -- no MNF this week, I am allergic to the Jets and you should be too. 

Sooo, you MUST pick from at least 1 Thursday game and as always can only have TWO (2) PLAYERS MAXIMUM from any one Marquee Matchup. 

Here's your W12 RAPID RECAP...

W12 RAPID RECAP
LOU AURICCHIO (7 - 4) -- 196
ROB BAILEY (6 - 5) -- 206
ROB is a clutch performer. This game had major playoff implications. Ergo, ROB wins.

CHRIS PALUMBO (9 - 2) -- 203
LISA CALITRI (4 - 7) -- 168
If the Falcons & Saints can lead a division with 4-7 records then why can't LISA? Except for the fact her 3 division opponents are 3 games over .500 or better, she's right in there!

BILL ROARK (8 - 3) -- 221
BILL CRONE (3 - 8) -- 197
A high speed, high altitude mid-air collision has one BILL soar and another sore.

CHUCK ROSS (6 - 5) -- 217
QUENTIN WALKER (3 - 8) -- 237
A mighty performance by mini-might Justin Forsett may have Q sparking CHUCK's anticipated developer demise.

CHARLIE ALDRICH (5 - 6) -- 229
JIM PEPE (5 - 6) -- 173
CHARLIE out-picked PEPE from pillar to post. Unique Pick saddle blowup Zach Mettenberg adds a pillar of salt to the wound.

TOM MAIDEN (6 - 5) -- 246
RICHARD BROWNE (5 - 6) -- 176
That was no turkey TOM was basting in a game not decided until RICH's first pick.

TONY D'AMATO (2 - 9) -- 187
LEE FINKEL (6 - 5) -- 198
A rather unLEE-like W is a W nonetheless.

CRAIG ROSENBAUM (7 - 4) -- 243
DeLANDIS BROOKS (2 - 9) -- 157
CRAIG's +86 delivers The Maidzo/Weekly Smash and 60 smacks.

JOHN INCANTALUPO (6 - 5) -- 197
ANTHONY ANNESE (5 - 6) -- 180
Just like Stella, the Outlier's got his groove back.

BRUCE WILLIAMS (8 - 3) -- 146
JOE HENDERSON (7 - 4) -- 206
JOE spanks dat ass.

VINCE CALITRI (5 - 6) -- 190
TONY BEDINI (3 - 8) -- 178
Despite all efforts to forfeit the game by not submitting a lineup, VINCE can't even get properly disqualified. And suddenly the playoffs may loom.

KEVIN CARTER (6 - 5) -- 175
MICHAEL WILLIAMS (2 - 9) -- 155
Despite the unexpected best QB pick of the week in Romo (43 - 13 v Antrel Rolle), MICHAEL still can't get out of his own way.

GARY LAZARUS (9 - 2) -- 192
JEFF NIGRO (2 - 9) -- 251
Classic road trap game for The Coach Formerly Known As SmashMouth NFL's Best Recordholder.

JIM GARDNER (8 - 3) -- 241
KEVIN KRUEGER (6 - 5) -- 227
JIM holds on despite having no answer for Justin Forsett.

SmashMatch Of The Week
ROB TALLIA (7 - 4) -- 191
GLENN ARONOW (8 - 3) -- 236
GLENN is no longer fucking around.
