The Fantasy Fantasy A2K NFL Pick-Um Thread for 2011-2012

What will it cost to get the Seahawks outfit to Pittsburg?

But I shall persevere and overcome .... and still kick your ass!

Well Tico--the ball's in the back of the net for 1-0.

For those readers who don't know Tico actually plays football our way. And he's a stalwart of the defence. Alas, I can no longer play myself, it being the limits of my stamina to get to the pub and back, but when I did I was in what opposing teams need to be defended from.

Hence we are psychologically opposite. But all in the friendly spirit of sporting gentlemen of course.

In American football I would be a wide receiver and Tico would be among the grunts.

11 players in so far. I have emails out to Rhys and to Andy, who performs tonight in Scottsdale, AZ, before hitting CA this weekend. Half way through their tour.

Painful weekend. I was drubbed at the office pool by 2 chickies. I'll have my picks in on Friday.

Great, Panzade. We look forward to your wisdom.

I played so bad I didn't even make the list.

Did you make picks in Week 1, Pan? I might have missed them. Please let me know. Thanks.

Damn. I am really sorry. I never saw that. You went 10-6 which wasn't too bad and leaves you in a 6 way tie for 5th with everyone below that dropping one notch.

Geez - If I drop any more notches I will disappear.

No worries mate. This thing is a bundle of yarn to run. You do it well.

CoinToss/CoinToss is eager to participate and to aggravate Spendius - who claims that CT/CT will always end up at about 50-50. Something about statistics. My problem is that I am not as good at flipping coins as I used to be. Actually, they flip decently but I am not very good at catching them anymore. The coins disappear to be found only when I run over them with the vacuum cleaner.
So, as a new feature here at no additional cost, you - yes you - can be CoinToss/CoinToss for the week! How cool is that?
Rules (yes, there are rules. I love rules):
1) You must be the 1st to declare that you will be making CT/CT's picks.
2) You must describe in detail the coin you are using.
3) You must post CT/CT's picks with any narrative - which is expected - being gender neutral. That is tougher then it seems, I assure you.

Where tonight in Scottsdale, may I ask?

His website says:
Wednesday. September 14th
Chasers Nightclub
8005 East Roosevelt St
Scottsville AZ 85257

If that is in your area, I think you would enjoy the show. It is not outrageously loud. I have never been to any live Bella Morte show, but Andy is a good singer (trained in, believe it, opera). The music, somewhat goth, is a bit dark. He has an incredible stage presence, I hear.
It is too late for me to get you in for free, but if you go mention that you are in our football pick-um game and he will likely give you some free merch.
Tell him that you are both 7-9 in Week #1 and that you have Pitt in Week #2.
