I match Ragman on 13 this week. Now, if only....

At present, I've no opinions at all. Back later.

I did a survey of the leading point-getters picks and the contests that are the most up-for grabs as far as gaining/losing points:

Washington/Chicago
Sandy Ego/TennisSea
NY Gints/PhillySteaks

lesser disagreed upon but still up-for-grabs is
Az Cards/Seattle

FWIW, it's too bad that of these the only quality matches or interesting contests are Wash/Chicago..and maybe the Giants/Philly match.

Excuse me? The Arizona/Seattle game is going to be a riveting roller coaster.

If you live in the desert.

Diego v Nashville has playoff implications. plus LT

Osso, I've more than enough opinions for both of us, if you'd like a few...

Most are worth very little, however...
