Unbelievable!! On the day I FINALLY pick a mess o' games, everybody else picks the same ones. As it stands, emget is the likely winner(nice goin'!). And then there is a possible 10 way tie for second! If Miami beats the stinkin' 'skins, it will be 8 ways going onto Monday Night. I would PREFER to win by a clear margin!

If you picked all the favored teams going in to the Sunday night game you had 12 of 14 correct.

Way to go bro Ed!

I think this is the closest week - Ever! Ubeliveable!
I was hoping for maybe a second with two wrong but it looks like I might not even get in the top 3...

Amazing!

With only the MNF game left to be played, about 1/4 of the guys in the pool could STILL finish in the "money" ... man, talk about parity!

(or are a lot of you guys using the same bookie ? ... LOL

Just one week on top and it will make it all worthwhile! Is that too much to ask for?


I'm not above begging...

Unhappily though, it was from experiences such as those of X and B (who also finished just out of the money, but near the top) in the pool this week, that the old expression "close, but no cigar" was derived.

Of course, in a pool with more than 3 dozen players, SOMEone has to finish further down than the top 5 ... and yours truly added himself to that number once again ...
