Week 10 Casino Gulag

Special week calls for something special.  So we have two games in line for you. 

The first is a traditional Casino Gulag styley.  We've put the spotlight on the offensive stars for the past several weeks, but mine is an unheralded people's regime.  So we'll swing that searchlight onto the special teams side once again, and this time it's the punters turn.  We call it Shank-A-Punt.  PICK A PLAYER WHO KICKS THE PUNT THAT TRAVELS THE LEAST DISTANCE.  This is just the punt yardage contest, so the distance the kick travels before it's caught, goes out of bounds, or is downed.  Essentially you are looking for a shanked punt, which usually goes out of bounds.  Touchbacks will be considered kicked to 20 yard line and not to the endzone, so that's something to consider as well.
Crapshoot, I know, with little strategy involved.  It's just impossible to keep the money away from the Goliathes lately, so it's a what-a-heck game.  As usual, 3 bankerbytez per bet, one bet per, winner collects pot and matching funds, first come, first serve with TNF deadline. 



For the second game, we'll simply play a series of Over-Under on player projections for 2 bb each (so everyone can participate).  The lineups are Ben Roethlisberger (19.74 pts), Michael Vick (17.00 pts) and Mark Sanchez (16.12 pts).  Projections will probably change until game time, so whatever the final projection is will be the line.  You can pick just one, two or all three.  For each pick, state OVER or UNDER.  You pick wrong and it'll cost 2 bb; you get it right and you'll win 4 bb (so doubled odds). 
For the second game, the deadline for purchase is their respective game time (MNF for Sanchez, Sunday 1pm eastern for Big Ben and Vick).  There's no rush to pick yet, but make sure to get your orders in before game time.  

Comment below for both game's purchase orders.  For Shank-A-Punt, I'll subject myself to 3-pix-24-hour rule.
