Sorry for the delay in getting these out -- I've been trying to get a week's worth of work done in two days (it ain't happnin).

I'll post the overall standings next.

!
Congrats to Edgar and to all. What a great week we all had.

Ragman continues to lead the pack and picks up at least one game on the rest of the field. LTX has been slowly climbing and jumps from an overall 6th place last week to a tie for 3rd with ci (who also had a big jump), ehbeth, and rjb after 11 weeks. Cowdoc has a 3 game lead over that pack for 2nd place and Ragman with 107 correct lucky guesses has a 2 game lead over Cowdoc. With this week's excellent picks, Edgar also jumped up a couple spots in the overall standings. I've added last week's standings in red

1 Ragman 107 - 53 (0.669) 1
2 CowDoc 105 - 55 (0.656) 2

Here are ci's picks for week 12 submitted by pm before he left

I think there ought to be a rule against CI vacationing in China and still getting so many picks right. Congrats to all of those folks who had a good week in #11.

Week 12
I'm a little drunk now, so I'm pretty sure this will be my best week yet

Detroit
Dallas
Indianapolis
Seattle
NY Giants
Jacksonville
New Orlina ... (Saints)
Tampa Bay
Cleveland
Tennessee
Kansas City
Arizona
San Diego
Denver
New England

Pittsburgh (52)

and I'm baaack to finish picking

(35 + 24)/2.....59/2.....

1 game and 1 score left to mutter to myself about

I'm sure to crash and burn this week . . .

Eb, only the Shadow knows...

11/20/1994 MIA 13 PIT 16

which means my number is 29

~~~

10/01/2006 SD 13 BAL 16
09/21/2003 BAL 24 SD 10
12/10/2000 SD 3 BAL 24

I should say Baltimore (following this week's version of a strategy), but given this season's home and away pattern for these teams ... San Diego.





(this is a game. is it supposed to be fun? )
