Brutal week. No one even made it past 50%. |
102. Author: clintCigar | Date: Sun, 9/25/2022, 11:06AM EST | |
Yes it was |
103. Author: cashmoneydave | Date: Mon, 9/26/2022, 1:05PM EST | |
yeah a lot of straight upsets not even considering points. Just when I thought I was prime to have a break out week. Only thing I’m breaking is my surface tablet Tom Brady style! |

Attention attention……2 Friday games!!!!!!!!!!!! |
106. Author: cashmoneydave | Date: Fri, 9/30/2022, 6:44PM EST | |
Delta the only Tulane taker. Looking like it might be a good call! |
107. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 10/2/2022, 10:05AM EST | |
Not too bad of a week. Better than 50%. |
108. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sun, 10/2/2022, 10:14AM EST | |
Braggart! |
109. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 10/2/2022, 10:23AM EST | |
Who, me? 🤪 |
110. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sun, 10/2/2022, 10:30AM EST | |
Yuppers. Though I did make it to double digits this week. Progress, baby! |
111. Author: delta1 | Date: Tue, 10/4/2022, 8:33PM EST | |
quick start was just false hope...fell back to mediocrity by noon Sat... looks like I can't pick winners straight up or against the spread... |
112. Author: stinger88 | Date: Thu, 10/6/2022, 8:39AM EST | |
More Friday games. |
113. Author: cashmoneydave | Date: Sat, 10/8/2022, 11:24AM EST | |
Think this could be a crazy week, seems like most games could go either way. Gonna be hard to break the 50%. |
114. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sat, 10/8/2022, 11:28AM EST | |
Hush! I'm batting 1000 so far on the weekend
I know. Weird metaphor for a football pick'em |
115. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 10/8/2022, 12:40PM EST | |
Looks like the honeymoon is over. Getting crushed this week. Hoping for some miracle come backs in the 2nd half of a bunch of games. |
116. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sat, 10/8/2022, 1:16PM EST | |
Speaking for the group, we're good with you having an off week or two |
117. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sat, 10/8/2022, 11:25PM EST | |
It all started off so well |

Week 7 picks will put us half way through the season. Still time to turn it around. Better look out I will be deploying a new strategy to try to get above 50% accuracy!!! |
120. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Wed, 10/12/2022, 10:49PM EST | |
I've got a foolproof plan. Make my usual picks, then flip them all opposite. Can't lose |
121. Author: clintCigar | Date: Sat, 10/15/2022, 9:34PM EST | |
GEAUX TIGERS!!! |
122. Author: cashmoneydave | Date: Tue, 10/18/2022, 9:00PM EST | |
OK 2nd half of the season. Don’t call it a come back!! |
123. Author: clintCigar | Date: Wed, 10/19/2022, 12:46PM EST | |
Still a lot of football left. Anybodys game still honestly. |
124. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 10/22/2022, 3:18PM EST | |
Oh, this week is starting off really, really poorly. |
125. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 10/23/2022, 11:32AM EST | |
Had a pretty good afternoon and salvaged the weekend. |
126. Author: delta1 | Date: Thu, 10/27/2022, 7:57PM EST | |
five more weeks of this torture left...got half of the cigars packed...gonna pick a good one each week until the end... |
127. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Fri, 10/28/2022, 6:47PM EST | |
If I can just gain a point or two each week, I can prolly catch David by the end of the season............2023 |
128. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 10/29/2022, 11:54PM EST | |
Brutal weekend. |
129. Author: csgamecock | Date: Sun, 11/6/2022, 12:48PM EST | |
Finally a good pick week! Screw clem's son!! and Pretendnessee!! |
130. Author: clintCigar | Date: Mon, 11/7/2022, 10:15AM EST | |
GEAUX TIGERZ!!! |
131. Author: stinger88 | Date: Fri, 11/25/2022, 5:42PM EST | |
Damn Gumby, how am I going to make up the 3 games if you pick all the ones I do. 🤪 |
132. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Fri, 11/25/2022, 6:45PM EST | |
That's a killer strategy |
133. Author: csgamecock | Date: Sat, 11/26/2022, 10:23AM EST | |
1-8 on Friday...... That was painful! |
134. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 11/26/2022, 10:30PM EST | |
So….what happens if there is a tie for first? |
135. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sat, 11/26/2022, 10:49PM EST | |
I assume the tiebreaker questions come into play somehow. |
136. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 11/26/2022, 11:35PM EST | |
I think when the dust settles, Gumby and I will be tied for first with mjrburn 1 or 2 games behind depending on if Washington States beats the spread. |
137. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sat, 11/26/2022, 11:55PM EST | |
SOB, I hope not. That really shouldn’t be part of anything. I haven’t answered those for many weeks. |
138. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 12:05AM EST | |
3rd to 6th place send to one and 7th thru 10th to the other? Depending if my calculations are correct. It gets funky when the add Fridays games to the overall and then also include them in the weekly total. It makes it look weird until the final tally is done. |
139. Author: Sunoverbeach | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 12:38AM EST | |
1st tier problems. AKDave and myself don't have to worry about such matters |
140. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 1:30AM EST | |
Lol |
141. Author: csgamecock | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 7:24AM EST | |
I'm working shift at the PD today so give me some time and we'll work the details out. I normally go by the placement that the standings on the front-page state but if you guys wanna do something to "Fix" the tie issue, I'm perfectly fine with that.
This is the winning format I've been going by the last few seasons when we have had at least 10 players.
1st. Keep ante and receives 6 Ante
2nd. Keeps Ante and receives 1 Ante
3rd. Keeps Ante.... |
142. Author: gumby_130 | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 8:29AM EST | |
Think you should do keep ante for one more spot because 3rd is tied also. 1st 3 1st 3 3rd keep 3rd keep
Thank you for the contest again buddy!! If was a fun one, for sure. |
143. Author: stinger88 | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 10:26AM EST | |
Gumby’s suggestion sounds good to me.
Overall….this was a blast again this year. Who would have thought that it would have come down to the last week and been this close. Doing this contest makes the season so much more exciting to watch. Thanks for putting this together!!!!

144. Author: clintCigar | Date: Sun, 11/27/2022, 11:33AM EST | |
