Weak #1:
We fared pretty badly as a group. Bad. We finished with a 56.5% winning record (190-146). Last season we came in at 61% or so.
Here are the standings after our 1st attempt at this:
(1) Region (12-4)
(1) Johnboy (12-4)
(3) George (11-5)
(3) Fbaezer (11-5)
(3) Best ESPN guy (11-5)
(5) Cowdoc (10-6)
(5) Ragman (10-6)
(5) McGentrix (10-6)
(5) Wandeljw (10-6)
(5) Spendius (10-6)
(5) Osso (10-6)

(11) Mysteryman (9-7)
(11) JPB (9-7)
(11) Rhys (9-7)
(14) Edgar (8-8)
(14) Ms Cowdoc (8-8)
(14) Worst ESPN guy (8-8)
(14) CoinToss/CoinToss (8-8)

(16) AndyClubber (7-9)
(16) CoastalRat (7-9)
(16) Liontamerx (7-9)
(16) Jespah (7-9)
(16) Tico (7-9)
(21) Edgar (6-10)

Using the 1st tiebreaker (player closest to the winning team's score), Region gets to paste a gold star to his forehead for winning Week #1 over Johnboy.
A bit of clarification on the tiebreaker that I used. Oakland beat Denver 23-20. Region predicted that Oakland would lose (21-31) while Johnboy said Oakland would fall (20-30). We both had Denver, but that doesn't matter. Region with a guess of 21 was closer to the winning team's score.

Do we really have 2 players named Edgar?

I include a deliberate mistake periodically to see if anyone is watching.
(14) EhBeth (8-8). Not Edgar.
Thanks for the correction. I suspect there will be many others needed.

Edgar plays so good, it must seem like there are two of us sometimes.

could be worse

if I really tried

God, I hope so.

I am one of the few people who know you by your other name: Danger Ed.

I have no strategy, except to pick em as I see them at the moment.

Look Ma, no pitchin':

NY Giants (21-17)

I'm not convinced there should be a tie-breaker. A tie is okay. It gives two the thrill of winning. The Irish St Leger last Saturday was a dead heat and the connections of both horses were as over the moon as if they had won outright.

I notice that Coin Toss was 8-8 as is to be expected. And that Tico flunked again.
