@realjohnboy,
Please don't tell Tico about this - I'm sure he'll be absolutely insufferable.

No doubt he will be strutting around the trailer park there in some god forsaken place in Arizona. High fives to the other old geezers as the tumbleweeds blow by.
But he is down 26 (edit 33!) points to me in Fantasy football this week. He can't make up that deficit.

@realjohnboy,
I now consider it to be official - the NFL this year in completely and totally unpredictable.

I think, but am not sure, that Ms Cowdoc is at 7-5 for the week, which would be better than any of the rest of us. I have one player amongst us at (snicker) 2-10.

@spendius,
There is red ink all over my scorecard, Spendi. This could be yet another horrible week for us.

I've got five if I counted correctly - that'll teach me to be happy I was about to get seven before the last minute ties.

NYJ CB revis announced (via twitter) that he'll be playing tonight against the vikes, so he can attempt to shut-down randy "benedict" moss.

the other sub-plot revolves around favre -- did he or didn't he send racy messages and lewd photos to NYJ employee Jenn Sterger in 2008.
(coinka-dink that the story surfaced late last week?)

should be a good 'un...

It is of no consequence how good or bad our picks are. The winning of the title of Pick-Um Champion, which I am the holder of until knocked off, is the name of the game.

A racehorse might win a classic race on soft going in a time a selling plater beat the previous week on firm going by 10 seconds. In fact I have seen a selling plater do a better time than the big race winner on the same day and had the former been in the big race it would have been 1000-1 and would get beaten by a distance.

Ms Cowdoc will win Week #5. She is at 8-5 and has Minnesota tonight. Region, George and Liontamerx are at 7-6 but also have the Vikings.

@realjohnboy,
I think LTX has picked the "Jetsies" so it's still up for grabs.

Thanks to the Eagles for improving my win ratio by a massive 50%.

@lmur,
Thanks for the correction. LTX does indeed have the Jets. A Jets win would result in our needing to go to the tiebreaker. Ms C has the Vikings winning 24-17 while LTX say Jets 31-13.
