@realjohnboy,
Quote:
1) Johnboy (135-57 .703) manages to extend his lead by 1 game
2) Wandeljw (127-65 .661) inches up from 3rd
2) George matches that
2) Ragman stays where he was
5) Tico (126-66 .656) jumps from 8th after a good outing
6) Fbaezer (117-62 .654) dips one notch


I think Fbaezer should be joint 16th in the standings. 6th just looks incongruous.

If it is okay to miss a week is it okay to miss a few games? Imagine what the standings would look like if we all missed a week or a few games. The number of correct picks in the season is not manipulatable whereas the % is. Suppose Tico and Fbaezer ended up joint top on .656 and Tico has 9 more correct picks. Or that Fbaezer was .657.

@spendius,
"The score never interested me, only the game." Mae West quote

I'll bet you are the only person here that cares a fig about that. I've know lots of folks from the UK and I know they teach good sportsmanship. Were you out the day when they taught that in school? Drunk

@spendius,
Just think, if you hadn't changed that week 12 pick from Packers to Lions,
you'd be ahead of fbaezer and tied with Ticomaya. I tried to warn you, but
would you listen? Nooooooooooooo.

That's flat-out bullshit.

The winners can laugh and the losers can suit themselves.

Taking part in the Olympic Games has had to be won and I knew somebody who didn't quite make it there. What he did to try beggared belief. It was very, very serious.

You should be on the Yabber-Yabber thread with that sort of thing Rag. They are really sweet on there.

@George,
I know. I know George.

I'm toying with picking the Vikes this week. What do you think?

The first prize has gone. Nobody would catch me if I was where rjb is. Not having Tico beat me is second prize and he's on the Lions and the Seahawks. Have the Rams any chance?

New England
NY Jets
Houston
Baltimore
Carolina
Jacksonville
Tennessee
Miami
Detroit
San Francisco
Denver (covers eyes)
Green Bay

My typing fingers are wanting to word play like LionTamerX does, with the city or team names. I may not be able to stop myself next week.
Or maybe I'll do a ehBeth with the food. Or opt to name restaurants.. that'll piss people off..
