I blew it, forgot all about this, and sent them from my car while I was driving thinking i made the deadline. I had no idea the deadline was 10 est. Thought it was 1est when the games start. Is this bizarro world? What a stupid rule.

How did you think mission was posting everyone’s picks at 10:05am ET every week?

I didn't pay any attention ever. I dont really have time to mess around here like I used to, so just pop in and pop out.

There goes $225, but it was gone anyway. Maybe I'll still play if Im eligible for anything. The trophy is unattended, if it were made yet.

I really should know better by now than to pick any O/U. Bleah. Probably going 0-3 on those, for a perfect bad record this season.

But, SKOL, bay-bee! Go Vikes!
If the House lost every hand, they wouldn't deal the game.

I wonder how many times in NFL history a team has covered the spread without scoring a point.

Skins get shutout but the +9.5 cashes

In our bets game we crushed it so you picked a bad week to do horrible. Based on the bets game I would think more people had a good week than bad.

I am pleased to announce that based on our great first 7 weeks in my free roll we are going to lock up a win. If the patriots hold on as I expect them to do we will be up over $900. I am going to pull $400 from it and fund a playoff free roll picks game and pay for dinner for anyone attending the spring fling from this game.

We will still have $500 to play with and a chance to grow our playoff free roll even larger.

I know you were here for the last Spring Fling so
you should have figured it out by now that you can't buy your way in with the cool kids. At least not for 500 bucks. Hell, you were already pretty close anyways.

I know you were here for the last Spring Fling so
you should have figured it out by now that you can't buy your way in with the cool kids. At least not for 500 bucks. Hell, you were already pretty close anyways.

Close. I think it was 25 out of 29.

The four who did not:
JohnnyQ 2-4
Bruce1 1-4
prozema 1-5
IndyJeffrey 1-5



I had noticed this -only four with losing records this week. And I don't think that stale lines made one iota of difference this week. So why are we having so much collective success? Are we just lucky? Or are we good-looking too?

stale lines have only played a role in 2 and both times more people had the wrong side of them.

I like helping my opponents. The Cardinals are now looking like a ‘real’ team. Shouldn’t be 10 point dogs. They are my confidence pick this weekend. I see them covering at plus 10 60% of the time.

I also like the Eagles getting 1.5 I thought they would be favorites by 1.5.

Also took Browns plus 12.5. Preseason I thought this would be a 3-4 point game.

speaking of coin toss. I am in Vegas and just was down in the casino. I decided to walk by a craps table and get my picks from their game. I did it online last week so figured why not do it live.

They rolled 6, 6, 7, 5, 11

So my confidence pick will be the 11. Now to go see what I am picking.

You threw out a bunch of distractions so maybe people wouldn’t notice the handful of very significant stale lines. ;-)

Can anyone do a quick who is missing please? I think Ed's program knows instantly. I'll double check for regular Picks and will have to go hunting for Defaults later as I am busy at the moment.

Thank you! I would go ahead and freeze Romes' record at this point. If he ever wants to go for perfection bonus, he can still submit his Picks. I'd make his official record whatever it was before the first 0-5, if possible.

I thought there were more missing, I'll look for Default Picks now. That's not too hard. Thank you!

It was announced late that Matt Ryan wouldn't play. However, I still think the Falcons and 3.5 are a decent pick, so I decided to avoid that game altogether.

ahhh, I missed that. I am definitely rooting for atlanta then. They have been so bad this year that maybe a qb change will make the difference.

Ryan is out!? I just figured the Seahawks were going to beat their @$$3$, LOL, I legitimately didn't know.

EDIT: Ha! I didn't pick it. I'm usually at the top of the list, but opened the PM I sent to OneNickel to copy my own picks.

Seahawks may be the most lopsided/consensus pick ever. With announcement about Matt Ryan, the line changed from -3.5 (although most books didn't post a line until they learned Ryan's status) to -8.5 going through the key numbers 4, 6,and 7. That's a significant amount of probability.

I picked Seahawks as my confidence also, but I see that 5 contestants also picked the Under for that game. I didn't think of that. :(

Edit: Seahawks ahead 24-0 at half. So it doesn't look like the extra 5 points will make a difference.

So many better men, a few of them friends, are dead. And a thousand thousand slimy things live on, and so do I.
