Thanks Fred!

I can see why everyone picked New Orleans, and I'm personally glad that they did. Now I can just enjoy a MNF game, without having to stress over the ramifications of losing :).

Sorry and your welcome!!! There really isn't much seperation in our group. Just 10 points from #1 to #26. That's crazy!!! Will people pick more and more risky as time winds down to get ahead or stick with the majority? I have taken some chances and a few worked and a few bit me in the @$$.
 
Not that I have a great chance of winning, but I am getting an error message that says I am not part of the group (when I click on "cornballs").
 
You might have to re-log in. I have 3 Yahoo accounts for different things... so I have to re-log in all the time. That message is VERY familiar to me. :)

I hope that didn't come across wrong, Mike. I really didn't mean it that way.

N'oh it didn't. I just feel like an idiot for not thinking about that first. If you hadn't told me I would have been scratching my head all day trying to figure it out. To bad I don't have a chance of winning. Oh well.
 
You're only 10 off the top, Mike. It might be a STRETCH, but I do think it can be done. Some people might "forget" to do their pics and others might get a really bad stretch.

Don't give up yet, man!!! :)

I ain't giving up, I just don't have hope. :dancer:
 
Just a heads up folks! Next Thursday is the start of Thursday night football on the NFL network, so I believe that this would change the deadline for all of the picks to Thursday evening. It might be wise to pick next weekends games along with this weekends, that way nobody forgets, because you have up until 5min before kickoff to change, and it's best to have something down as a back up.

Just a little advice, because I have a feeling the Thursday night football might throw a some people off, and missing a week will most likely cause a person to fall out of the runnings.

Good luck this week my friends!!!
 
Good call, Michael! I do mine like 3 weeks in advance, but that might have thrown off a few people...

Thanks! I also make my picks a couple of weeks in advance, for no other reason than just as a backup. Of course I go back and make adjustments, as I see fit, but it's a good idea to at least have something in place to prevent a completely missed week.
 
Anybody willing to take a side bet? I'll bet my 2008 1.0 Lavender Bloodred that my Browns don't loose this week. The snake you put up must be equivalent in value.
