Buffalo Wild Wings Punishment Eliminator League. Week 8 Update.
Each week, Cooterdoodle will be breaking down all the pain and punishment that transpires in our very own BWW Punishment Eliminator League.
18 will enter, but 17 will leave with their tails between their legs as they are forced to face a season-ending punishment.
BWW Punishment Eliminator League
We’re moving on to Week 8, but wait! The punishment gods have spoken! Today we’ll have a full recap of:
- Celebrate Your Wins
- Week 7 Results: Stop the Count!
- Week 7’s Proof of Punishment (PP)
- On to Week 8: Easy as A-B-C
If you’re new here, be sure to read a full breakdown of our 18-team best ball elimination league and last week’s recap.
But the rules are fairly simple: SURVIVE or face the consequences (read: the Punishment Generator).
Celebrate Your Wins
This is a lesson for all leagues regardless of format, scoring, or payout structure. I need all of you to listen up closely: all wins are worth celebrating.
It’s not every week that you demolish your leaguemates. Actually, maybe it is. If you’re undefeated, remind them. And even if you've suffered a few defeats, each victory should also be remembered.
After all, we’re here for fun. Part of the draw of fantasy football leagues is the camaraderie that comes with all of the trash talking. I’m not saying that you have to be cruelly brutal, but why be shy? Remind your leaguemates of your accomplishments. If you don’t, who will?
If I win, I will dish it. But if I lose, I can also take it. And that’s the key: don’t be soft.
Tell everyone about your wins. But don’t hide in the corner when you’re losing either. Now go! Go and tell the people what you’ve done! You’re a winner! (probably?)
Oh, and for the record: this is completely unbiased. Let’s get into the results.
Week 7 Results
Sound the alarms. I want all hands on deck!
We’ve got some major news this week, as a third-party observer with absolutely no stake in the matter, I demand that we STOP THE COUNT!
Okay, let me catch my breath.
Here’s why I’m yelling…You guys are going to be so proud of me this week. Really! I know that the eliminations have been nipping at my heels for some weeks now, but this time I have something that I really want to show you.
Hopefully, you’ve been following along and rooting for Fantasy Life’s self-proclaimed Underdog. That’s me! And I have something to show you.
Look! The results from Week 7 are in!
Hey, Mom! Look who had the top score last week! It's me, and no one was even close…
Alright, enough bragging. We started with 18 teams, but we've since cut down to 11 teams remaining. And despite all odds, I’m still in it to win it.
But I have to admit that I am terrified of the volatility of best ball leagues. In some ways, I enjoy the rush because there’s a bolt of adrenaline that comes with finishing second to last one week and then promptly blowing up for the highest score the following week. But it can also hurt just as badly.
Anyway, have I ever mentioned that you should unabashedly celebrate your wins? If you don’t, who will?
But let’s talk about punishments. There are 11 teams moving on to Week 8, but someone didn’t make it out of Week 7. And it’s time that they paid the price…
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy
Alexa: play the Lemonade album by Beyoncé, because that’s what Chris has on his mind. Well, maybe not musical lemonade, but lemonade nonetheless.
And as we know, the dreaded eliminator is waiting in the (Buffalo Wild) wings to come for us all…
Proof of Punishment (PP)
It’s finally time for what you’ve all been waiting for. The big PP reveal.
The Punishment Generator results were rolled out prior to Week 7 and revealed that the loser would have to set up a lemonade stand. But not only did they have to make lemonade, sit around, and sell it, but they were also forbidden to leave the stand until they made $10.
Not too bad, huh? I hope for Chris’s sake that his neighbors were thirsty. So without further adieu, here’s Chris’ punishment!
We’re sorry to see Chris go. But we march on!
Nitty Gritty Breakdown:
- Teams remaining: 11
- Teams eliminated: Marcas, Freedman, Jonathan, Ian, Waz, Kendall, & Chris
- Punishment on Deck: Spelling Bee
With Chris's elimination, we’re on to a new beginning. And unfortunately, we're faced with another few days of sweating it out while we await the fresh agony of the upcoming Week 8 results.
On to Week 8
As for the survivors: another one down with 10 eliminations to go.
How punishments are decided:
- Generate a random punishment with our Punishment Generator
- Announce the punishment to the league prior to kickoff
- Boot the loser from the league once the games have concluded
- Collect Proof of Punishment (PP)
- Expose everything on FantasyLife.com
We won’t know who has to pay the price until all the Week 8 games conclude on Monday night, but we do know that someone is going to have to roll up their sleeves and squeeze some lemons because the Punishment Generator has spoken.
Drumroll, please…
That’s right, the team with the lowest score in Week 8 will have to sign up for a spelling bee. To be more specific, the losing team will have to sign up for the Fantasy Life Spelling Bee. It'll be our first one ever!
Stay tuned for an update next week after the losing team submits their Proof of Punishment (PP), and we kick them from the league.
If this sounds like a fun league format to you sickos, you don't have to feel left out. You can make your own punishment eliminator league!
Don't be shy, it's easy to create some fun (maybe not so fun for the loser) punishments. Whether it’s an end-of-season last-place punishment or a weekly side bet, we’ve got you covered. Just input your settings, generate, and let fate decide!
