Congrats to the Miz! She just sewed up a playoff spot in our fantasy league with a 10-4 record and one week to play in our regular season. Ahmad Bradshaw and Derrick Mason locked up the win for her tonight.

@ossobuco,
Thanks.....Osso
At the last minute I was asked to draft for our league or they would be one team short this year. I had no idea what I was doing but, things worked out. I let it influnce some of my picks here....not a good idea!

@ossobuco,
My avatar is my 7 1/2 yr old male Maltipoo Jeb. Unlike his sister Sheba, he will sit and pose when I have the camera out. His sister runs and hides or turns her head. But they are both sweet dogs. Well, mostly anyway. lol

WEEK #14
I was a bit surprised when I ran the numbers and discovered that, as a group, we got 69% of our picks right. That was despite our getting beaten severely about the ears due to losses by Cleveland, Green Bay and the Jets. All in all one of our better weeks.
CoastalRat, down there in Charleston SC, finished 14-2, missing only with his picks of the Jets and Packers. Well done! It also is 40 degrees there, heading to 60 on Thursday.
McGentrix, Spendius and JohnBoy had a solid week at 13-3. BillW, Alex, LiontamerX, Ragman and Region came in at 12-4 followed by Fbaezer, Panzade, Lmur, Cowdoc, Mysteryman and EhBeth at 11-5. Miz Cowdoc, AndyClubber, Jespah, Tico and Osso stumbled in at 10-6. Rhys, George and JPB were at while Edgar broke even at 8-8.
ESPN has not given any explanation but the experts there had no picks in the Vikings-Giants games. The best guy was 12-3 while the worst was 7-8. Cointoss/Cointoss was 10-6.

Standings-
The battle at the top remains a virtual tie between Spendius and LiontamerX. A couple of other players still have a chance but need to make a move in the final 3 weeks.
1) Spendius (137-71 .659) takes sole possession of #1 again by one game
2) LiontamerX (136-72 .654) slips from a tie for 1st

3) Ragman (132-76 .635) remains in 3rd
4) EhBeth (131-77 .630) drops from a tie for 3rd
5) Panzade (129-79 .620) quietly moves up from 6th
5) JPB, down from 3rd, took some chances that did not work out well
7) Region (.606) climbs from 8th
7) Osso sticks in 7th
9) McGentrix (.594) moves up from 10th
10) AndyClubber (.591) gives up a notch from 9th
11) Johnboy (.582) advances from 13th
12) Miz Cowdoc (.577) stays where she was
12) CoastalRat gets a nice pop from 16th
14) Cowdoc (.572) is down from 13th
15) Edgar (.570) gets punished, slumping from 10th
16) Rhys (.558) slips from 15th
16) Tico stays where he was
18) George (.552) does the same
19) Lmur (.543) does likewise
19) Fbaezer (.543) does, too
22) Jespah (.514) follows that same script, remaining in 22nd
23) Alex (.500) (!!!!!!) hits the breakeven mark but is still in the cellar.
--) BillW (25-7 .781) should have started playing earlier.

(4) The best ESPN expert (.632)
(22) The worst ESPN expert (.536)

@realjohnboy,
From top to bottom you all are at 1 sigma off 500, (a coin toss or a card pickin chickin woulda done as well).

I picked Dallas and Philly was favored by 6 .so I won anyway

*By the way, after Week 17 we are done here. But then we do the Super Bowl thing on a new thread. We take a week or so off and then we pick all the way through the rest of the playoff games in one fell swoop, or is it one swell foop.
AndyClubber tells me that the NFL will soon start their "swing" game thing where they can move a game from earlier on on Sunday to the prime Sunday night TV slot.
**I can't see how the roof in the Metrodome can be patched by next Monday night. I see the Vikings' game as being somewhere else again.

@realjohnboy,
What do you mean a "virtual tie". I'm pulling away. Like last year. Never come too early my grand-daddy told me.

Good luck Lion. May the best man win.

CoinToss/CoinToss takes offense at being compared to a card pickin' chicken or a dead octopus who picks soccer games.

"Picked", not "picks."

Correcting an omission.
