What's the point of playing in a sheep draft if you're not going to get any sheep after all?
 
12 hours is way too long. :lol:
 
Heh I sent my pick hours ago.

Edit: Or you just want me to stop reading about bitcoin stuff, which is not a bad advice.
Oh, I thought we are waiting on you.

:lol: what a fecking round!
 
Not sure what I found most funny this round, maybe we should change the poll @green_smiley

Brainfart of the Round candidates:

  • @P-Nut0712. If you want certainty that you will get tied up in a craphole there's no better strategy than picking two rival rightbacks (Cafú and Arce)
  • @Edgar Allan Pillow and @Skizzo thinking it made sense to try pair up the all-time semifinal appearance record holder Tito Gonçalves with pretty random players. Chances were he would fail, they would get a random chap and the third attempt from a decimated squad would deliver a sheep
  • @P-Nut0712 picking "Gilmar the goalkeeper" in a 90s Libertadores game in which he was listed 4th or 5th in the lineup
Step aside EAP, I reckon we have a new brainfart king.

Well everyone not sheep who played with him are picked in 1st round. There was no chance of success either way! I picked that team because it had Nestor Goncalves, Juan Joya, Pedro Rocha and Alberto Spencer. Thought I'd have options...but then seems so many other also picked same team.

That side doesn't have actual sheep. That's the beauty of it. The only sheep quality we can go for is being a nobody to everyone. Christ, even the sub that came on and probably closest to a sheep is a World Cup winner (unused squaddie)!

I'll take the Brainfart King mantle for my showing in that round.

Already picked player in the first round, then managed to jump into a match with a few others already in there.
 
Already picked player in the first round

You know that's actually a smart strategy.

Whenever you are considering a GOAT/mug combo, it's smart to pick the GOAT and a ineligible player. If you land the GOAT you can pick a different mug. If you don't get the GOAT, you can move to a different game and not get stuck with the mug.

Hmmm....

In my defence I was rushing to get to United and was struggling trying to research on my phone so just gave up eventually and plumped for the right back I wanted and any random player off the other side that I recognised. Just ended up being someone playing the exact same position :lol:
 
Pick sent in.
 
Happy to get Ortiz at least. A player I’ve always wanted to pick in these.

My luck hasn’t been all that tho. Already a sheep in and can’t get a first choice in at all :(

I had forgotten about that side of things :lol:

That Botafogo side were no mugs though.

@Edgar Allan Pillow doesn't get Alberto Spencer, he gets the classic centreforward who top scored in Peñarol's 1960 league win but got injured soon after Spencer's arrival, never to return as a regular starter. Still a mint sub for him, so much so he was starting for Uruguay (and scored) in the 1962 World Cup. Ángel Ruben Cabrera, beeeeeh!

ang+rub+cabrera+MI.jpg


@Skizzo picked in a game with only two players I would dare associate with sheep status. Out of those, he gets Tabaré González, a CB (stopper) that regularly came on as a sub deployed as a destroyer ahead of the defence, breaking up play to shut games down. For you to get an idea of what a thick feck he was, two stories:
  • While in Germany, during a tour of Europe, Tito bought a top quality pocket radio. Tabaré looked at it, started flipping it, pressing buttons, pulling the antena and redirecting it, turning the dial... and soon concluded: "they conned you, it only has German stations".
  • He holds the Guiness record for distance covered pulling a car with the skin of his neck. He attempted that post retirement as part of his training as a magician. Proper mentalist indeed.
