I forgot to make a pick for Thursday night, and now somebody is TIED for second place with me. rage.gif

 

Oh well, at least I didn't lose a WHOLE WEEK's worth of picks. I'm in for Sunday. And I picked mostly favorites, although I went with the Skins over Dallas.

You would have taken the Pats anyway. tongue.gif You didn't lose any ground on me because I picked the loser.

Okay guys and gals, I see that some of you have quit with your picks dazed025.gif

This is football damn it!  Football teaches you to never quit no matter how far down you are.  Perserverence!  Pride!  Belief! 

DON'T BE QUITTERS.  SHOW SOME PRIDE! 1287.gif

I noticed that too. confused13.gif

 

Why are people bowing out? As the season progresses, it gets more fun. I know we're not trash talking much yet, but down the stretch, i'm sure that will pick up.

 

Some people are just totally out of it right now. They've missed too many weeks. We should have come up with some kind of prize next year.

Sorry Necro I totally forgot about this!

 

I know first hand how hand it is to run one of these things I will get my picks in from now on. doh.gif

Good job trink39.gif I'm starting to sweat a little. laugh.gif

Hey Brian, do me a favor and forget to pick one week. tongue.gif

Yeah, two games that I seriously considered changing this week were the Denver game (I should have changed it) and the Dallas game (I'm glad I didnt). Sometimes I find that over-analyzing something is a bad thing and that I should go with my first inclination on the pick.

 

Kind of a "predicatable" week but then we had the tie game, which was unusual to say the least. I was watching that OT (Philly/Cincy) on ESPN's web site, and it was a crazy back and forth struggle.

 

Then last night, watching my Steelers and due to a safety, the score was 10-8 late in the fourth quarter, with Pittsburgh driving, and in scoring position. They needed a field goal to win, but the announcers were saying that there has never been a 11-10 final score in an NFL game in the history of the NFL. Thats pretty messed up. So, the Steelers kick a field goal and go up 11-10. With a few seconds left they have to kick the ball to the Chargers. With 4 seconds remaining, the Chargers try a pass play and begin lateraling the ball like crazy. Polamalu intercepts a lateral /backwards toss and runs it in to the end zone for an unorthodox 17-10 win. No extra point as time had expired.

 

So much for history.

There was a penalty on the play and I believe the final was 11-10.

I can smell first place (sniff, sniff).

Holy crap, you gained four games on me this week, and Brian is now seven games ahead of me.

 

Not a good week for me; now tied for third.

Thanks! I know - I got in after the starting gate. Because of that I never really targeted a top slot. I'm very happy with where I am. And who knows what will happen over the next few weeks. trink39.gif

Looks like we lost a few people.

I can't believe the change in the standings the last few weeks.

You either pick really good or you suck. There really isn't an

in-between.
