I'm finally back online and our side bet is shaping up nicely. Looks like Max Power with the lead and the rest of us nipping on his heels. It's crazy what a couple of extra wins will do for your standings on a weekly basis in a pool like this. Good luck, I'm already a game up so far this week.

Fucking 8-2 through the first 10 games and I'm leading for the week..... only to go 0-3 on the 4 PM games.

What's killing me is the guy in first place is my Uncle and he not only had the lead, but he's increasing it on everyone. He's tied for first again this week with only one game left. FML the shame.

I was wondering who that was. Before the 4pm games I was in 13th place but dropped 2 picks behind 1st. I might have to start studying matchups instead of going with my gut. It seems like it's a race for 2nd place right now.

I looked at his weekly scores and I'm floored how anyone could be that right that often. I feel like I follow the sport as close as anyone alive, and I can't produce that kind of average. Is it a case of I'm too married to the players individually, or is he just that good?

And here is a little tidbit about him, he's a lifelong Jets fan and used to play pick-up basketball games against some of the old Jets greats like Boozer and Snell. He's also a mountain of a man and makes me feel short and I'm 6'4".

Finally put together two solid weeks. Moved from the mid-60s to about 30th place. Not going to win anything, but not embarrassing myself anymore. And if Chandler Catanazaro would have made two game winning kicks (NE week 1 and this past week) I might be top 20.
I also moved into first place this week in the Hampur pick em pool, which is nothing to be proud of with only 6 people in it, but until this week, FF2 was in front. Don't wanna let the Pats fan win.

Worst part is I'm still alive in my other pool and would have been in this one also.

Anyone have the balls to go Browns tomorrow? Nope, we are going to win. I expect us to go 5-4 the rest of the way and half of this board will rejoice when we knock the Bills out of the playoffs in week 17, but miss out on Garrett, Fournette, Cook, Smith-Schuster and Cam Robinson. Could be a couple of pretty good ILBs in the mid teens. On another note, I am glad that I finally recognized the Jaguars for what they are and went with Tennessee last night. How long before Marrone is their coach, I can see them making a move today.

Hey Ruby ....get your picks in on time. I think this is two weeks in a row for you missing the Thursday game. I doubt any of us will place in the money but the Hampur side bet still stands and is close.

Only eight picks difference in the Hampur pool with half a season still left. Now I just need that undefeated or one loss week to close the gap. I'm not feeling it this week.
