@Ragman,

I don't do unemployment, and my internet bill has been a hefty expense of late.

I'll be back...

(good luck to you as well)

Bummer, Ragman and Rockhead.
There was a comedy show on, I think, radio. Might have been Bob and Ray. An ending line was, as I recall, "Write if you get work and hang by your thumbs."
Does anyone remember that?

@realjohnboy,

I remember the show, not the joke.

I have been trying to track down Tico, who skipped making a pick in the Houston-Jacksonville game.

Ooops. Meant to pick Houston.

@realjohnboy,

I do recall bob and Ray..and in fact use that line "Write if you get work" often.

Can someone please explain how a team scores two points? I notice Raiders are 5 points ahead and two of those came from summat called a "safety". Whazzat?

@lmur,

If a player on offense, carrying the ball, gets stopped in his own end-zone, the other team gets 2 points. Called a safety. The team giving that up then has to kick-off from the 20 yard line.

Good afternoon to all of you. The 8 early games are done. Just 5 to go this week.
Jespah, Ragman, Fbaezer and Cowdoc check in at 6-2. Everyone else is in the middle. Except Ehbeth, who is at 2-6. She would have been joined by Tico, but his missing (and wrong) pick came in too late.

Good evening to yall. Washington beat Dallas? Who would have thought that might happen? Miz Cowdoc did.
11 games over with and we have 4 leaders here, tied at 8-3. Jespah, Ragman, Fbaezer and Cowdoc. El Stud is at 7-4. The rest of us are settling in at 6-5 or 5-6.
Ehbeth and Tico get mention as being...um...not so good so far.

I'm going back to picking by hairiest mascot or something like that. it was more reliable than this dartboard approach.

@realjohnboy,

I'm not at 7-4 too? The misses I figure were Denver, San Francisco, Arizona, and Dallas.

Dang Dallas. Sad

Last week I took a chance on KC thinking they were ready to play inspired. They didn't. So this week against Denver, no contest. Right? Yeah right. Not!

Sounds good. If I'm in there (doubtful, I'll be glad to get 4 out of 13 this time), I'm the only one so far who picked the abysmal cleveland over the abysmal cincinnati. Even worse, I almost picked washington.

Hah.

You're right I did. Marked it wrong on my own score sheet.

Sigh.

Oh well. Middle of the pack is good. Lotsa good company there. Smile

@ossobuco,

Double Pooh. (Though it was much better for Chicago to win to help out our Cowboys but I did pick Philly) Sure isn't doing anything for my soothsayer reputation though.
