And so ends week #5 with the Steelers and Cowdoc clawing their way to victory.
Cowdoc (9-5 for the week) wins based on the tiebreaker. He had 51 total points predicted and the total was 46. Very well done.
Region, Ray and Gus also finished at 9-5.
At 8-6 were Child of Light and Liontamerx.
Johnboy, El-diablo and Panzade ended at 7-7.
And then it gets a little bleak:
Dragon, Jpinmilw and George limped in at 6-8 anf Fbaezer stumbled in at 5-9. Better luck next week. (Bbaptiste will, I hope, come back).
Through Week #5, the cumulative Wins-Losses seems to show that the rich get richer:
Cowdoc and Panzade are at 18; Region quietly accumulates points, now up to 16; Gus (12) and Child of Light (10) are heading in the right direction; stalled are Bbaptiste (7), Liontamerx (6), Dragon (4), George (4), Johnboy (4) and El-diablo (2).
Still underwater are Jpinmilaukee (-2), Ray (-4) and Fbaezer (-10).
As a group, we didn't do too well; plus 14 vs last week's plus 61. Still, the best expert on ESPN finished at 9-5 and the worst at 5-9.

The database wouldn't let me post, and then put my picks in three times. Go figure!
Jacksonville-Huge confidence game last week, they will win alot now.
Tampa-Cadillac on 22's
Cleveland-I'm not sure why, Balt seems to be falling apart
ATL-Vick back, Brooks still there
MINNESOTA-I'd play well after a sex party, wouldn't you?
DALLAS-Dallas is at home
CAROLINA-I feel obligated
TENNESSEE-McNair, remember him? He's back
KC-Home game
NEW ENGLAND-Champs still
Buff-Holcomb will prove to good enough this week
OAK-Whoa, this is a tough one to call
SEA-They are one of the best in the NFC, Hasselbeck is playing great
Indy(56)-C'mon, no Martz, no home game, Colts roll.
This is a pretty tricky week, I've picked lots of road teams, wish me luck everyone.
