2009 Yahoo - Pro Football Pickem - Contest - Prizes

[Blue Apple Herps]

I picked NE thinking that the Saints were due for an upset anyday now. I may be rethinking that. NE is a very good team, but they looked like a NCAA Division II practice squad against NO. I think NO has a shot at running the table - especially with the rest of their schedule.

Belicheck... I've never seen him so "humbled" either. Great words at the end. Gave good credit where it was due. Kudos to him.

I thought he was still pretty snarky with his "kudos". It's tough to win when you don't have the other teams plays ahead of time. Me thinks that may be catching up to the Pats. What a poor sport too. Pulling your starting players with time left in the game? Where's your sense of doing everything you can to win? Colts did it 6 years ago to Tampa Bay with only 4 minutes left and needing 21. Not impressed.

I think NO has a shot at running the table - especially with the rest of their schedule.

They do look good, but can't say that they have really matched up against a balanced team yet. Have they? Go Vikes.

NE I think is a very good and a very balanced team. But you're right, their schedule hasn't been the hardest. But still, getting to 11-0, even with an easier schedule, is no small feat in the NFL.

The Vikes also look good. That would be a tough match up, I'd probably give whoever had homefield the advantage.

 

[Emanon]

so do tell... what are the standings? I cannot check at work.

 

[ZoologyGirl]

We both have 10 picks right, at the moment. Depending on who wins tomorrow's game, one of us will be crying and the other will still only have 11 wins

Are you crying yet? lol. I think I'm pretty much just in this for the fun of it now. 15 points behind first, 10 points behind 4th. And I'm averaging crap a week.

 

[The_Thunderer]

I was fairly sure someone would do this before I had a chance... but here it is. I'd have gotten it done earlier, but things got out of hand around here. LOL.

After week 12, here we go!!!

Well some of you may feel good about this but I can't even tell you how f****g pissed off and disappointed I am at myself right now. I worked late and listing my picks for this week completely slipped my mind. Way to screw up a really good thing :headbang::headbang::headbang:

That sucks, Danny.

I doubt many of the people on here will feel good about this. I know I would certainly feel better about beating someone who has given their best. Not because they forgot to do their picks.

I joined your club. Doesn't suck as bad for me as I'm in the middle of the pack, but I'm not happy about it.

I agree! I wouldn't feel right winning that way. Perhaps you could send some of us the picks you would've made, minus this game (Buf vs NYJ), and we could unofficially count this week for you. It could be a personal thing, where some people who would've otherwise passed you could allow you to count the unofficial stats. It would be unfair to make it law for everyone, seeing the rules stipulate that missing a week is missing that weeks picks. But I would be willing to allow you and Brent to have the edge over me, should I be the one you would pass including the unofficial picks (excluding the NYJ vs BUF for obvious reasons).

Just a thought, because I don't want to have won due to someone missing a week, and I would be more than willing to allow this from my end, even if others don't want to accept the same for them.

I appreciate the thought but rules are rules. I wouldn't feel comfortable getting special treatment. I would have passed on the snake anyway, I'm only in it for the bragging rights. Lol. I will however be keeping track, unoffically of course.

Jets win :dancer:

You're a Browns fan... Sorry to break it to you so bluntly, but it's in the manuscript that as a Browns fan, you have officially been stripped of any bragging rights, of any sort, for any reason. Even on Christmas if you get that new Ferrari, no bragging, because the Browns are just that bad! :nyah:!!!

Does the word 'Boo' mean anything to you?

Wow... I'm REALLY sorry to hear this. You've been one of the ones that I've had to worry about overtaking me on the rankings... Please do keep the unofficial count... I'd like to know if I could have held you off!

I used to post warnings about getting the picks in... but I haven't been on CS.com as much lately, so that slipped my mind too.

Keep 'em coming though, Danny!

 

[CaptBogart]

That sucks! Luckily I pick mine on Sunday and update until game time, because I got my Yahoo email reminder to pick my teams this morning...

They've started playing on Thursday nights now, Beth. So ALL picks need to be in before Thursday night's game(s).
