Recommended Posts

Great to meet you too buddy.  Just as nice of a guy in real life!




Was a blast to see everyone and make new friends. Was great meeting Lou for the first time.. too bad he had to leave cause he was playing well. Left during Elite 8 to hang out with my wife and kids. Made a really cool weekend outta this get together. My family can't wait for the next one with my kids asking if we can come back during the summer to stay a week! Some really great local spots to hit up also!

Congrats Lou!  There was nobody more deserving of that trophy than you.  We have played a lot of games together, and I gotta say when we played our game in this tourney and you demolished me I knew you were the guy to beat.  There was something different about the way you were playing; and by different I mean freakin awesome!


 


I was very happy to take my 4th place trophy - a 400 lb tv I got to carry into mort and lou's basement.


 


Another fantastic tourney by two of the best guys in tecmo!

Ty jason. Sorry we shoulda cut the bubble.guy.in but you did.win some.bounty money. Ty for buying half of tacos (I couldn't let you buy them all...#tecmogodsseeall) and remember once we get the videos of all the games there's a prize for.best played game of the tournanment.

obviously your not from buffalo if your asking why I had a Steve Tasker division.  There is no way a special teams player like him had a chance of making the game and yet he was a key player in Buffalo during those years.  The theme of the groups was the lesser know Bills after the big name and of course Tasker seemed to fit that group.  To be honest based on popularity I honestly feel in the Buffalo area his name is probably next in people's hearts after the big names of Levy, Thomas, Kelly and Smith.

I had a blast at this tourney!  It was great talking with the Buffalo crowd as well as the people who traveled (and the 6+ hour ride up with Greg).  I really enjoyed the meetup the night before and shooting the breeze with all the guys and playing some good competition. I could definitely tell Lou was on fire from the meetup the night before.  


 


I thought Lou spilling the beer before the loser's bracket championship was a bad omen for him.  But he was a man on a mission.  Congrats to Lou, Matt, and Mort for finishing top 3.


 


Being in a "super group" provided for some excellent competition, but likely prepared me to make the elite 8.  My game against Chris was pretty wacky to get there.  Oh and Laztlain, I'll get you next time!  Though I'm still undefeated against you in non-tourney play.  For whatever reason, you seem to stay in it in every tourney game.  I think Erik knows exactly what I mean by that after this past Saturday!

ty the tecmo gods work in mysterious ways. I remember thinking after I accidentally spilled my beer that is.was sign from.the.gods to quit drinking and.im.glad I spilled.it. as for..laztlain goes...cleary the tecmo gods prefer mighty taco. Jason p..buys half of tacos for everyone (we used the 50/50 $ for the other half and two pitchers of beer for everyone). And it paid dividends. Laztlain was 1st to win a 50/50 prize...then he broke a tie game vs joey v. With a fumble recovery on defense as time expires (chi over cin 17 to 10). That did get joey v. The "ickey woods hardluck tecmoer $20 prize". Every year the first player.to GIVE UP a td on a defensive fumble recovery gets twenty bucks. Then laztlains browns trail arncoenms packers in 4th...laz puts slaughter in at t.e. and calls proset pass 3. And gets this incredible pass that was "seamlessly interwoven between the paisley tapestry" of gb defense. The pass goes over the head of man defenser and.in front of.the drone and slaughter runs in as both of the defenders fell over. As slaughter ran into the endzone to tie with 30 secs. Left.He won on a f.g. in ot. Im probably leaving out the other games laz was involved with. Anyways #mightytaco Edited by red98sethuthut

I made my solemn offering of tacos to the Tecmo gods in a ceremony the night before.  3 hours of chanting..... "Oh great gods of tecmo, let the JJ's not land for the opposition but landeth for the Laztlain.  Oh great gods of tecmo, let the fumbles be returndeth for scores only for those of the Laztlain.  Hear me, and I will remain loyal!!"


 


IT WORKED!

At least Joey got $20 for that fumble returned against him.  The game against Erik included his game-winning FG being blocked in OT.  And I'm still in disbelief that I kicked that onside kick before the half in our elimination game.  I think you are so talkative and jovial when you play against someone that they are lulled into a false sense of security... and that's when you strike!

What a great time. Thanks Mort and Louis for an awesome tourney. Great to meet a lot of fellow tecmoers who welcomed the "new guy" with open arms. Friday night was a lot of fun too kicking back and playing some pre-tourney games. Capped it all off with drinks (including 2 free shots) and a smokehouse burger at Smokey Bones. Congrats Louis on the big win!

Here is my Tourney recap...
We had some guys who couldn't make the tourney for legitimate reasons and but couple of locals stiffed us got about 30 players.  We were a little worried that the locals wouldn't show. So there was scrambling around to adjust groups. pre-paying really helped us out. A couple of guys made it late and were allowed to play in bracket portion of the tourney.

*** Mort made "random macthup cards"...it was option to use in tourney (although i still prefer calling the match myself). It's basically for new guys so people dont call lopsided matches and those sick of calling match ups. And if a guy picked a random matchup the loser of the coin toss still had his option of what controller he wanted. Then the loser of coin picks what side he wants BEFORE he sees the card...Player 1 gets the top team Player 2 gets bottom team on card. Each specific random matchup alternated which team was on top or bottom of card. So there was 10 MINN/WASH cards in the deck...5 had MINN as Player1 5 had MINN as Player 2. Vice-verse for Wash. ***
Format- 4 man Round-Robin Pool plays (with 2 Supergroups..those in supergroups got either 1 or 2 seed in bracket play for there bravery). 7 of 8 projected guys in super-groups has made to elite8 in both years of tourney. It was single-elimination until the elite8 which was double elimination.

Tourney Goat: The sidelines
Winner Of Mort's $50 Bounty: BigMV

Winner of most rushing yards with Thurman thomas: Jeffrey lewis/ Eugene "Flu" K. $10 each (they asked if was possible to play a bills vs bills double or nothing in game afterwards lol)

In Loser's bracket Mort's Lions held of Joey V Game bucs 27-14. In the semi-finals BigmV bengals lead 10-7 over chi at half...red drove down on first drive at second half...had a fg blocked but scooped it up and tight-roped the sideline for a td.

Qb browns to slaughter combo was deadly with cc's and burning routes and led the offenseand goes on to win 28-21.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Red98 wins his first championship (What Louis will show up in Upcoming tournaments is question i have for myself).. ? Bigmv (2-1 vs mort) really had a great tournament too and should be a force in midwest on his home grounds to deal with. Mort had good day but i wonder what woulda have happened if i would played him the championship game.(s )(oh wait that happened in cuban bowl 4 and 6 when he won) lol. Laztlain (who bribes the tecmo gods by buying half of the "mighty taco" for everyone...has quitely finished in top 4 in the 3 tournaments hes played in (Buffalo I Runner-Up, Youngstown I Runner-Up (the longest yard) Buffalo II 4th) .

--------------------------------------------------------------------

TY to everyone who came out, helped set up, helped with the live streams, helped us packing the equipment after tournament ...till next year!!!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

OK here it is. Looks like so much fun, the rest of you will have to come next year!
