Fantasy Barbecue League
What a great idea! My buddy, fellow blogger and fellow writer for the Well Fed Network, Brian Pearcy has just published the rules for a Fantasy Barbecue League. I’m in.
Here’s the rules right off his blog...
“I’m envisioning an Excel spreadsheet to keep the tally from contest to contest and limiting the league to a “Best of Seven” contests will make it more attainable. Unfortunately, I think I’ll also have to limit number of participating teams to a maximum of ten.
Scoring for a win in any of the traditional Kansas City Barbecue Society’s categories:
- First place = 5 points
- Second place = 4 points
- Third = 3 points
- Fourth = 2 points
- Fifth = 1 point
Scoring for an overall champion or reserve grand champion victory:
Grand Champion = 2 bonus points
Reserve Grand Champion = 1 bonus point
Points will be recorded according to the order of finish posted at the KCBS web site.
To “enter” your team for a particular contest, BBQ team managers will need to submit their picks for a particular contest 24 hours prior to the event. The BBQ Forum’s traditional “roll call” discussion can assist in allowing managers to know who’s participating at a particular event.”
If you’d like to participate in the league, or have suggestions that will help Brian maintain the league, please send him an e-mail or post a comment on his blog by clicking on the comments link here.
