Fantasy BBQ League

What a great idea! My buddy, 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 KCBS 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.
