I'm a little afraid that if the Packers get past the Falcons, the Bears will steamroll 'em (and that if they don't, the Pates will), but my picks are tinged with wishful thinking.

@realjohnboy,
prolly not.

with the dolphins out of things, and no brent favruh or dallas to root against, there is no joy in mudville for me.

when do pitchers and catchers report?

@Rockhead,
Yeah. Doesn't your baseball glove smell great. Every Spring when I pull it down from the shelf, it brings back memories of being 10 years old. Little League. And sometimes feigning sickness to miss school to listen to the Milwaukee Braves on the Mutual Radio Network's game of the day.
My mom was as fanatical about baseball as I was. Sometimes, even if the thermometer under my tongue read 98.6 she would let me stay home if Burdette or Spahn was pitching in a critical game.

@realjohnboy,
I remind yall again that my original posting of the schedule had an error. Please make sure that the picks you make are from the schedule below.
Thank you.

Here We Go-
I am asking you to pick all the way through to the end in one sitting. That is, you need to pick all of the remaining 7 games before 4:30 ET on Saturday, January 15th. You also need to guess the final score in the Super Bowl.
Divisional Playoffs:
Game 1; Jan 15th, 4:30 pm- Baltimore @ Pittsburgh
Game 2; Jan 15th, 8:00 pm- Green Bay @ Atlanta
Game 3; Jan 16th, 1:00 pm- Seattle @ Chicago
Game 4; Jan 16th, 4:30 pm- NY Jets @ New England

Conference Championships:
Game 5; Jan 23rd, 3:00 pm- Winner of Game 1 vs Winner of Game 4
Game 6; Jan 23rd, 6:30 pm- Winner of Game 2 vs Winner of Game 3

Super Bowl Championship:
Game 7; Feb 6th, 6:30 pm- Winner of Game 5 vs Winner of Game 6 (+ score)

Q&A: Can I change a pick? Yes. You can change any pick up until kickoff of the 1st game on Saturday, Jan 15th at 4:30. But then you can not change any guess. Please feel free to post early and then come back to change based on further research, injuries, weather or whatever.
I didn't play during the Wild Card games this past weekend. Can I still play?
Absolutely. Last weekend was termed a warm up because the NFL has a complicated system of determining the match ups for next week. We had 30 players here. I can handle more.
Do I need to know anything about football? You're asking me-I don't know one end of a football from the other.
What do I win? BIG PRIZES. Actually you don't win squat. There are really 2 games going on here. One is to correctly pick the winner of the Super Bowl. If more than one player gets that right, I use the score in the Super Bowl game as the tie breaker. Please remember to post the final score. A 2nd game here is the awarding of points for each correct pick in the 7 games. You do get one of those little stick on stars you can wear on your forehead to the office, churchsynagoguemosque, or school.
More about that game as I continue to make up rules.
Thanks for playing. I look forward to having you join us.

I
