The same thread for picks and results would have been fine, which is why I respectfully requested that nobody besides myself post in the official thread, but what can you do?

Oh wait, I can ban people....j/k

Stop the contest now. Declare the winner. A perfect solution, I would think !

Especially now that there are scab referee and real referee phases to this season.

Declare a Phase 1 winner now ! I don't want those crybabies who picked Greenbay to be complaining at years end.

I believe the current leader would even forgo any prize, other than the recognition that should go with a great accomplishment.

Rumor has it, had there been real referees, he would have gone 15-0.

Let's recognize his accomplishment now before crybabies besmirch his reputation as a great handicapper !

Buzz,

You are trying to win this contest like Seattle did...ha ha ha

Will not work.

That bad call did work to end the strike (and for us to win the Seattle bet).

I'm not going to Split the existing official thread because everything except the current Standings is irrelevant, at this point, anyway. I am going to be posting the Lines, momentarily, and when I do, I will Lock the thread.

I only watched the last 30 seconds of the game, so I missed the bad call. What happened earlier ?

Not a whole lot...Green Bay vs. Seattle play by play

Thanks Now i see. I thought it had something to do with the refs.

Looks like if Green Bay had not gone for 2 point conversion and made the extra point.

Then they could have run some time off the clock while taking a safety, then kicked deep and Seattle would have had to

score a touchdown with less time and more yards also.

But what had the referees to do with the Green Bay coach's bonehead decision ??
