I hate the most average prize, it's a participation trophy for being totally insignificant. Congratulation, you're a circular shaped flat piece of metal with two different sides. Unfortunately I'm capable of stealing it if I suck really bad going forward.

I'm not sure if this has been brought up, but I think it would be a good idea to go off site. Don't tell DJ we're doing one next year, tell him it's cancelled.

Time is a flat circle.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

I say the most average prize should be closest to 52.4%, as that is the break even percentage. Or something like that. Next season.

I think most would agree that it should 56.06 %, and that we should start that immediately. For this past week for sure.

I am going to add ( maybe * ) to the the prize pool with the....

"HUE JACKSON CLEVELAND CLOWNS MISERY LOVES COMPANY AWARD"

$ 25 Woot woot WOOT !

.....For whoever gets closest to the BELIEVELAND BROWNS regular season record, PROVIDED that this does * not duplicate the "YOU SUCK" last place award. If it does, then no additional prize, no, No, NO !

- If the Browns play in the Super Bowl this season, the prize will be doubled to $ 50.

- Cuz, hey, I am a generous guy.

Currently, the BROWNS record is 0.375 per NFL.com

It could be some sort of "delusional fan of the year award"

- whomever bets the same team the entire season and has the most losses against that team's record. Only spreads, no totals.

I mean the Browns have nowhere to go but up with their roster at this point :)

Rushed my picks in, thought it was Saturday night going on Sunday. Copied and pasted, went random.org on it. Will probably be the only time I go 6-0 borrowing GWAE's strategy. I was confused about the day just because of a break of routine.

From what I remember from X-Files, people who have been abducted by aliens experience unexplained time loss. Do your, uh, you know, feel like it has been probed ? Just a theory.

You can always use http://miplet.net/nfl/rand.php to get random picks. Just make sure it has the current lines and not last weeks.

Cool! Thanks, Miplet! I actually typed in all the games into random.org when I did it. This is much more efficient! Out of curiosity, have you used it to make picks in this game?

I'll let you know in just a second. I was just looking for PlayYourCardsRight and the answer is no for him. He's not yet used his Skip Week though.

PICKS (not default) added for IndyJeffrey.

Sorry about that, he said something in his PM in addition to his Picks that I responded to and I must have forgotten to copy the picks over first.

No. I had about 8 games I kind of liked, used a random integer set to choose 5 numbers of 8, then did a simple random number choosing 1-5.
The hard part, I copied the entire list, then deleted as I went, which gave me no shot at second thoughts, then when I did the random integer set, I really had to remember which teams were which. Guess I could have copied and used a random list, but I didn't.

Ending of Dolphins/Pats game was a stunner. Those plays with multiple laterals never work. . . . except, like, WTF just happened?

Mission, do you still feel as if the Patriots are not in decline?

I never said that, I just said Brady’s career isn’t over because of a few bad games. Case in point, he had an outstanding game today.

Brady has 23 TD to 8 INT on the season.

The Patriots lost today to a team they often lose to away, in fact, Brady has a losing record in Miami even before today’s game.

The Patriots are 9-4 and it would take a LOT for them to miss the playoffs. Depending on what the Chargers do, the Pats will be tied for the second-best record in the AFC.

Nope. Not really worried. I don’t expect them to win the Super Bowl this year, but if this is a, “Decline,” teams such as the Bills and Browns haven’t declined this well since the 90’s.

Let the record show that I have in escrow $25 from Johnny Q for his Hugh Jackson Cleveland Browns NFL prize.
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

Babs, what exactly is that prize? I think I missed that thread.

$ 25 for the percentage closest to the Cleve Browns, who are currently 5-7-1, 0.423 ( but if this duplicates any of the other pre-existing prizes, ie most average or you suck, it is not awarded. )

Right now, OdiousGambit is right on target with 0.4225

This game is hard. I'm one game closer to 3rd, but Bruce hulked out so I'm further down the rankings.

I just wanted to say Bruce hulked out... Thanks for indulging me.

Good picking last week Bruce!

4-2 is so much worse than 3-4. Now I need a 2-4 next week.
The race is not always to the swift, nor the battle to the strong; but that is the way to bet.

Thanks! Perhaps I should use my 'double-blind dart strategy' more often.

Yeah 2 people went x-0 this week - congrats to both!

I thought there might be 3 of us. I told Mission I was aiming for the 0-6 to overtake the bottom, since nothing else was happening for me.

So of course, Sunday I went 3-0.

But then last night happened. As usual, when I actually get to watch the Vikings (we never get their feed in Florida), they completely forget to show up.

And of course, it's all about me. So I'm 3-3 again for the week, and with a record 7 (7!) prizes available in the game, I'm mired in mediocreville.

I have decided something important... I will forego my plans to easily dominate all of you in the "Most Average" prize... Instead I will be winning the "You Suck" prize!

Carry On.
Playing it correctly means you've already won.

Me and Troopy shooting it out for the bottom feeder award. If I suck as much as I expect to the next two weeks I still have my bye week in the bag! No reason to risk it in case I accidentally pick some winners....

And did I forget that if the Browns go to actually play in the Superbowl for this season that the prize is doubled ? Yes, you heard read me correctly, DOUBLED !

It's good to be KING !

Not so fast, Dr. Gas. If I manage to go 0-18, I will have exactly 34%, which is just below troopscott. Who currently holds the cookies. Aye and scolist are also in the party, at least. So put em up, put em up. The suckiest of us all is yet to be known.

I’ll lay up to 2,750 to your 500 djatc. That’s +550 odds.

Seems damn hard, which makes me wonder what I'm missing. I am always cautious to trust you after you nugget failure. Hopefully there is some way you can do this and somehow I win my bet you don't win the contest.
