A2K NFL Pick 'Um for Season V (Roman Numeral for 5)

Carolina is running through KC at will...

(Dolphins are kickin' bolt ass!!!)

Anybody got a paper sack? (Texans fan)

Yeah Ed, they kinda belched that one...


KC 00 ~ Carolina 34

(and it wasn't that close)

Just before the wheels came off, I asked the TV screen, "What will they do to give it away this time?"

I was happy about Miami and Atlanta winning though I didn't pick them..

So the early games are over. 8 of them. I used to call them the 1 pm games. I got an objection to that, suggesting that using ET was eastern elitism. So now they are the early games..
We got hurt bad in the Green Bay-Atlanta game. Only Ehbeth got that one right. Rockhead and Alex had Miami beating San Diego.
Beyond that, it is looking pretty close. Stay tuned.

Me either and my Great Bend defense in Fantasy Football took a horrendous beating. The late games aren't shaping up any better either. Tampa Bay has Denver pretty well shut down and Arizona is tromping Buffalo. I presume we all picked Dallas and that's working out fine.

Wow! After 12 games we have a 5 way tie at the top. At 9-3 are McGentrix, Rockhead, Fbaezer, Ehbeth and Miz Cowdoc. The rest of us can only watch.

I think McG was copyin' off'n me...

(where is the protest form?)

....but with 2 games to go still...can't the ones who are 8-4 rally?

Just a note, Rockhead. You and McGentrix each got to 9-3 in your own ways. You differed on four games.

RJB, I'm just teasing the gent, nobody plays like me...

Well, I guess yes. If Pittsburgh and Minnesota win...

Dallas did their dangdest to lose today but couldn't quite get it done. Denver pulled their chestnuts out of the fire but I picked Tampa Bay - oy. Mediocre Arizona stomped undefeated Buffalo and New England got it done which helped here and sealed my death warrant in Fantasy Football.

So as we go into the last two games this week, I'm fighting to hold onto my astonishing .500 record.

hmmm? well..I'm a little confused. If I'm 8-4 now and I picked Jax Jags and NO Saints does that mean I can't win?

I think 2 of the guys with 9-3 did pick Jax.
All of us tied with 9-3 picked N.O.

I got Jax...

thanks..that helped shed light.

It's true.

Here is the clarification of where we are with just the Minneapolis @ New Orleans left.
We have a 3 way tie at 10-3: McGentrix, Fbaezer and Ehbeth. All three have the Saints. If they are right, they will tie at 11-3. McGentrix has the final score being 17-9 (26); Fbaezer- 31-17 (48) and Ehbeth 24-21 (45). If total points are 47 or more the week belongs to Fbaezer. Ehbeth takes the prize if the total score is between 38 and 46. 36 or less clinches it for McGentrix. Exactly 37 gets us into a second tiebreaker.
At 9-4 are Edgar, Rockhead, El Stud, Wandeljw, George and Miz Cowdoc. Any one picking NO can't gain. But El Stud and George have MN. So if MN wins there would be a 5 way tie. El Stud has the final score as 26-24 (50) and George sees it as, hmm, 26-24 (50). That would be an amusing outcome if MN wins and by total points being 50 or more.
Back tomorrow with the full results.
