At least my directions must be understandable, lol.

[Canmore]

Note to players. Get your New Orleans versus Green Bay pick in by Thursday at least 5 minutes before kickoff, 8:30 EDT . You only have to pick the Thursday night game Thursday. You can make your picks for any game up to 5 minutes before scheduled kick-off.

[Northman]

Im in like flynn.

[threefolddead]

I'm in too! Thanks!

[MileHighCrew]

I'm in, thanks

[MasterShake]

Sweet. Just signed up. Thanks for setting that up!:salute:

[Lancane]

I'm on it...;)

[Ravage!!!]

This is going to be SOOO much easier on Tned!!

[girler]

:salute: Thanks Canmore! Do we get to see everyone else's picks too?

Thanks.

Lol, no the picks are all secret this year. :laugh:

[Canmore]

I'm In.

This is going to be SOOO much easier on Tned!!

Yes, this is way easier. No extra points for picking the Dever game score correctly but that is a small drawback for ease of use. I've been in a pick'em league using Yahoo Sports before and it's a no brainer. Everything is done for you.

yeah... its easier on everyone.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Do they show the results after each week, or at least say who the winner was and how many right/wrong?

[gnomeflinger]

Was last year's totals ever added up?

[Canmore]

Do they show the results after each week, or at least say who the winner was and how many right/wrong?

Yes to both. Under weekly performance it shows all the participants for each week and the running totals. It either puts an asterick by the winner or bolds the winner if I remember correctly. It's super easy to use.

Make sure you are the one signed into Yahoo.

Hope that helps.

As a added bonus and just for fun im going to award the winner a CD of their choice from a list that i have. Dont worry, it wont be just heavy metal as i have a lot of stuff to choose from. :)

Winner = weekly, or overall?

What are the chances that you have any Christian CD on that list?

[Northman]

Overall. Although i could do a weekly one im just not sure i have enough stuff that everyone would like. lol

[Northman]

What are the chances that you have any Christian CD on that list?


100%

However, it would be a rock/metal christian cd. :D

[gnomeflinger]

Overall. Although i could do a weekly one im just not sure i have enough stuff that everyone would like. lol

The winner of the first week gets a 7 year old boy from WA.

[FanInAZ]

Like Petra, White Heart, White Cross, Stryper, etc.?

[Northman]

Like Petra, White Heart, White Cross, Stryper, etc.?

Currently i have stuff from Styper, P.O.D, and Demon Hunter.

However, i am also considering that just in case i dont have something somebody wants i will get some sort of gift card or whatever. :D

[SR]

Got it. This should be less of a hassle than doing it on the boards.

[Tned]

100%

However, it would be a rock/metal christian cd. :D

How many Billy Joel CD's do you have?

"We didn't light the fire, it was always burning, since the worlds been turning..."

[Northman]

"We didn't light the fire, it was always burning, since the worlds been turning..."

I actually have his greatest hits 2 disc cd. However, it doesnt have the case and wasnt up for grabs. I dig those cds. :laugh:

[camdisco24]

I'm in it to win it!

I'd be happy with Styper

[pnbronco]

I would also like to add a prize to the overall winner.

It will either be a autographed picture by a Bronco player like Brian Dawkins or a team photo with at least 10 players on it, no idea which ones depending on how much time/energy I have this fall.

I had offered this to Tned earlier this year and then he was not sure it was going to happen.

Most of you have never heard of most of the Christian artists that I listen to: David Meece, 4Him, Avalon, Rich Mullins, Steve Taylor, Steven Curtis Chapman, Sweet Comfort Band, Sweet Comfort Band, Craig And Dean Phillips, Point Of Grace, etc.

[Lancane]

Tri-Polar? It's a pretty good album.

I like the Bird and the Worm, my favorite is Liar Liar.

I play some of this on my radio show.

Suggestion - what about you and North getting together, and rather than giving both prizes to the same person, give one to the overall winner, and one to the runner-up?

I admit that I don't know any of them, I like Skillet and they're Christian Metal, and Brian Head Welch is a big Christian as well, but for the most part I don't listen to musicians or bands that would be considered Christian friendly in itself...:lol:

Most of the music I listened to would be according to hardcore Christians as the enemies' music.

What every works for North. I can even try to have something by the half way in the season. It's just that I'm on the road a lot in the Fall and getting ready to drive to WI in the am.

Got a great team picture at the last preseason game, so I'll see what I can swing. You guys just figure it out and let me know what you want, North and Can. Dawkins has always been nice to me so I can have probably have one of him by half way.....like I said whatever works....

[Northman]

I have no problem with it. Im game for anything. :)

I use to share a jam space with Sara and Tegan, we played our first gis toether too in the livingroom of a friends house. Their career turned out much better though!

[girler]

Thanks.

Lol, no the picks are all secret this year. :laugh:

Mother fudge eater!!! That ruins my entire plan for winning this year!!! :throwrock:




The winner of the first week gets a 7 year old boy from WA.

The loser gets a 16 year old from Colorado. :D Woops I guess that's me. :Cry: (Dammit Canmore!!! This is all your fault :throwrock: )

I'm far from Christian, but I listen to a handful of Christian metal bands simply because they make good music: August Burns Red, Devildriver, As I Lay Dying, The Devil Wears Prada, MYCHILDREN MYBRIDE, etc.

[SR]

Play "Dusk Dismantled" by Trivium and we can be BFF.

[FanInAZ]

:lol: I find it humorous that most of you who have less then positive views of Christianity know more about Christian metal then I do. :lol:

For me, my tastes are more towards meaningful lyrics then style of music. I can listen to rap, country, contemporary, rock, metal, etc. as long as the lyrics are good. I’ll even go as far as to acknowledge that there are a few none Christian songs that meet this standard. However, most of the popular ones you might hear on the radio don’t. I would also have to acknowledge that many of the Christian groups, especially when you’re talking about the harder rock & metal bands, don’t either. This is what made groups like Styper, White Cross and dc Talk unique. They could blend meaningful lyrics to what many would consider to be more extreme style of music, especially when you compare them to more traditional church music. As far as many of these other Christian bands that I’ve heard the youth play, all I hear is the scratching of electric guitars and the screaming of some incoherent gibberish.

[FanInAZ]

This is quite true. I have not heard of any of these.

:D Might have something to do with the fact that half of them haven't produced anything new this millennium. :D

Rich Mullins was killed in a car accident I believe in '97. I also believe that Sweet Comfort band broke up before the end of the '80s.

[Lancane]

I wouldn't call Skillet "metal".

I guess that's true...more like Christian Alternative Rock, but when you go to most music stores either local or even online they have it listed under metal.

What made Stryper memorable was that they came out during the early years of 'Hair Metal' when heavy metal itself in all forms was on the rise as a popular genre and they had a song that was sort of shocked people with 'To Hell With The Devil', and though some bands had curse words in their albums they certainly didn't get air wave time and that song did...so it earned them some fans outside the norm.

With the non-Christian crowed, you bet...the fact that they said 'hell' on the radio and it was allowed impressed us! Hahahaha...

Everytime I saw there striped bumblebee look I thought about the band W.A.S.P because they wore something similar in some early videos, back when Headbanger's Ball first started on MTV - damn I feel ancient! :lol:

:D You just forced me to check your age, CHILD! :D

You want to talk about feeling old!? A few years ago, I was a volunteer at an Arabic church. Sometimes we would you radio transmitter/receiver units in order that someone could translate the service into English so the Pastor wouldn't have to keep stopping to translate for himself. One Sunday, a large group of students from a Bible collage came to visit. We had plenty of receiver units, but not enough headphones. I realized that the IPods & MP3 players the all of the kids had used the same type of headphones. So I went around asking to barrow them. I saw a couple of brothers hanging out in the parking lot and so I asked them, "do either of you have a Walkman with you?" They both gave me a strange look and the old of the two ask, ""what's a Walkman?" :tsk:

[Northman]

Never been a huge fan of theirs but have played their stuff and actually gave their new album high marks on my blog. :D

[Northman]

:lol: I find it humorous that most of you who have less then positive views of Christianity know more about Christian metal then I do. :lol:

Well, thats just it for me. I am a pretty open minded individual. Its not the christian message i have a problem with, its some of the individuals behind it that i feel have used it as a shield or dont practice it. But i can listen to bands that sing about god to bands that sing about satan. In the end its just their interpretation on life or in some cases just for shock value. As much grief as death metal gets for its gory and over the top lyrics its really nothing more than listening to a horror movie rather than watching it.


For me, my tastes are more towards meaningful lyrics then style of music. I can listen to rap, country, contemporary, rock, metal, etc. as long as the lyrics are good. I’ll even go as far as to acknowledge that there are a few none Christian songs that meet this standard. However, most of the popular ones you might hear on the radio don’t.

As far as many of these other Christian bands that I’ve heard the youth play, all I hear is the scratching of electric guitars and the screaming of some incoherent gibberish.

Im pretty much the same way although when it comes to a lot of christian or anti christian music i listen mainly for the music. Styper are fantastic musicians but i think they just barely missed the bus on how to convey their message without being too far over the top. Demon Hunter and P.O.D do a much better job of making the music more based on the listener's interpretation as opposed to their own views. Meaning, the songs could easily apply to every day people and also christian people.

But i do love some intelligent lyrics as well as my fondness for progressive music in general. I cant do country regardless of lyrics or music. Just cant get into it. I do like some Rap, Celtic, New Age, Classical, etc though.

You guys are awesome!

[Lancane]

My kids do that to me all the time. A couple months ago I said "telephone" and got a total blank stare and then "what's a TELEPHONE???" :rolleyes:

My three year old son did that the other day, we went to an antique market...my teenage daughter wanted a classic telephone, like those from the 40's, anyways she found one, but she forgot to test it. He kept telling her to plug it in and charge it, he got very adamant that all it needed was to be charged!

Northman and PnBronco have offered up prizes to the overall winner and MasterShake has agreed to do a weekly winner and overall winner sig.

[Canmore]

Of course there are always bragging rights.

[Tned]

Thanks. I'm in :elefant: ... Any kind of prizes or anything this year? Or just for fun?

If Canmore can get me the winner, and whether they want cash via Paypal or an Amazon gift certificate, each week, then I'll give the same prizes as last year, but promise they won't be 8 months late. If all I have to do is login to Amazon or Paypal and click send, I am 'probably' reliable enough to pull that off.

Well, having my lying, cheating, computer hacking 16 year old in my house has to be good for something. I'll see if he'll be any good at hacking into Canmore's account and see if I can still find his picks and copy him... Then I'll at least tie with him!!! :balloons:

Not a problem. I love the Pick'em League. Been involved in one for ages. Used to run one that I did totally by hand. This is a lot easier.

I will miss seeing all of the entries, plus reading people's posts - guess I got spoiled by the way we had it on BF, but I know it was major work. Thanks for setting it up on Yahoo - which is better than not having one.

[BroncoBJ]

If Canmore can get me the winner, and whether they want cash via Paypal or an Amazon gift certificate, each week, then I'll give the same prizes as last year, but promise they won't be 8 months late. If all I have to do is login to Amazon or Paypal and click send, I am 'probably' reliable enough to pull that off.

Thanks :salute: Not like it matters to me since I'm never first :lol: Havn't won this since I was back on the other boards. Been a while.

But yea, if I win, I'd probably just settle for lunch with Mr. Tned. :salute:

But yea, Its a lot of work for me just to be in this pick em plus my million other fantasy stuff. So it must be even harder to run it and try to keep up with it all. I know I couldn't do it.

Since we both live in Arkansas, I could spring for something off the McDonalds dollar menu.

[I Eat Staples]

I have not picked one game wrong yet this season.

[girler]

I have not picked one game wrong yet this season.

Hey! Me neither! I think they should give out prizes now. :salute:

[Denver Native (Carol)]

I just checked - out of 39 entries - 25 picked GB

[Canmore]

I didn't. :laugh:

Oh well, I'm only one back.

[girler]

I didn't. :laugh:

Oh well, I'm only one back.

This is probably the only time this season I'll be able to say "I'm ahead of Canmore, nanner nanner nanner!!!!" :rockon:

[Canmore]

[Denver Native (Carol)]

How is everyone doing so far? Right now, I am missing 3 - one of which is Jacksonville over Tennessee - I originally picked Jacksonville, and then changed it to Tennessee :eek:

[MileHighCrew]

buffalo and jacksonville got me so far i have Atlanta too, so 3 games for me so far

[girler]

I knew I should have quit while I was ahead... I missed every single morning game. :laugh:

Oh wait, I didn't pick anything other than the first game. :tsk: I suck!

[MOtorboat]

I got worked in the first week. I got in on Friday, so obviously I missed the first game...but then I went on to lose every early game, except Houston. Then I got all the afternoon and night games right...

I was the other way, I got killed in the afternoon and evening.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

I just checked, and 3 have 12 points - foochacho, Tned, and UnderArmour. How do you tell which one of those 3 won? I can't imagine they all picked the same stuff on the tiebreakers.

Under weekly performance the weekly winner is shown in green this year. If you look up in the upper right of weekly performance it shows week winner=green box.

[Canmore]

There was a three way tie week 1 between foochacho, Tned and UnderArmour all with 12 correct picks. The winner based on the tie-breaker is

foochacho

Congratulations! :elefant:

6 players were tied for 4th with 11 correct.

The overall top three are foochacho, Tned and UnderArmour.

I'll whip that boy in to shape in no time.

[Northman]

Foo cheated, no one can be that lucky. :)

[girler]

I'll whip that boy in to shape in no time.

We are finally getting CLOSE to getting him into a residential facility. He's a singularly difficult case-- part disability and part stubborn ass-ness, but because of the disability no one knows how much causes "the problem," so everyone is fighting over who pays for what. And I'm all WHO FREAKING CARES, JUST HELP HIM FIGURE OUT HOW LIFE WORKS, HELP MY YOUNGER KIDS HAVE A BETTER LIFE, AND GET HIM OUT OF HERE!!!

oh, um, I mean, ya. Whip him into shape, SR! :whip:

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Just a reminder - don't forget to get in your week 2 picks

[slim]

If you can average 10 per week, you will be in it at the end.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Reminder for those who have not - time running out on getting picks in

[Northman]

Thanks in advance!

I love me some good music.

[pnbronco]

I would also like to add a prize to the overall winner.

It will either be a autographed picture by a Bronco player like Brian Dawkins or a team photo with at least 10 players on it, no idea which ones depending on how much time/energy I have this fall.

I had offered this to Tned earlier this year and then he was not sure it was going to happen.

Picture is ready to go. Canmore pm me if you want me to mail it to you or I can ship it to the winner when the time is right.

It is a team photo and I got Matt Prater, Von Miller, Zane Beadles, David Bruton, Daniel Fells, Virgil Green, Spencer Larsen, Joe Mays, Rahim Moore, Brady Quinn, Mitch Unrein and Austin Sylvester to all autograph it. Good luck guys.......:D

[Northman]

Still have some more to go through and add to the lists yet but this is what i have done so far that will be available. Ive separated them by categories for you guys to make it somewhat easier. Hopefully whoever wins will be able to find something they may enjoy or like. I will update and post the final lists when im done.

Picture is ready to go. Canmore pm me if you want me to mail it to you or I can ship it to the winner when the time is right.

It is a team photo and I got Matt Prater, Von Miller, Zane Beadles, David Bruton, Daniel Fells, Virgil Green, Spencer Larsen, Joe Mays, Rahim Moore, Brady Quinn, Mitch Unrein and Austin Sylvester to all autograph it. Good luck guys.......:D

Awesome.

Holy crap North, that's a lot of CDs. :shocked:

[Northman]

Holy crap North, that's a lot of CDs. :shocked:


And those arent even the ones i plan on keeping. :lol:

[Denver Native (Carol)]

So - who won week 2. I just logged onto yahoo, but I can't tell.

[Northman]

Yea, im looking at it now and myself and a few others had 14 correct picks this week. However, FaninAz is listed as #1 but i dont know if that means he was closer with his scores in the Sunday and Monday games or just listed him first. Im not sure how you determine the tiebreaker there.

[Northman]

OMG, i just noticed the "Midgets of the Corn" hahahaha, is that MO?

[Denver Native (Carol)]

Last week, Canmore said there would be a small green block by the winner's name. All I can think is that it takes a while to calculate the tie breakers, since there was not an outright winner.

[Thnikkaman]

Still have some more to go through and add to the lists yet but this is what i have done so far that will be available. Ive separated them by categories for you guys to make it somewhat easier. Hopefully whoever wins will be able to find something they may enjoy or like. I will update and post the final lists when im done.

Ok, yea that would be Fan then.

[Northman]

Awesome, now I have no desire to win.


:beer:

[weazel]

lol, I forgot to make my 2nd week picks... thats why I never join these things

[Canmore]

There was a 10 way tie for first place in week 2 with 14 correct games. Tned, Hardwired, Con_Valian, threefolded, OldManBronco, FaninAZ, Horsepower 56, Northman, Midgets of the Corn and Skinny. The winner due to the tie-breaker is

FaninAZ. Congratulations! :elefant:

12 people tied for 11th with 13 correct.

The overall top 3 are Tned, Hardwired and Con_Valian.

[Canmore]

For the first time this season there is an outright winner. With 13 correct the winner of week 3 is

Pick'n a Winner! :elefant: Congratulations!

Tied for second where bags3 and Midgets of the Corn.

Overall standings show Con_Valian in 1st with 34 and tied for second with 33 are the following: Pick'n a Winner, Midgets of the Corn, Northman, Bullgator, Denver Native (Carol) and Trych's Picks.

[Canmore]

Will the user of Pick'n a Winner please tell me your Broncos Forums user name so that we can get you your prizes. :salute:

[Northman]

Very nice, im up to 4th now. Woot!

[gnomeflinger]

I'm not the greatest at Pick 'em's, but I give it my best every week.

[Canmore]

I'm not the greatest at Pick 'em's, but I give it my best every week.

My week one had to be the worst I've ever done with a sixteen game schedule. Agh. Oh well, there is a long way to go.

[gnomeflinger]

My week one had to be the worst I've ever done with a sixteen game schedule. Agh. Oh well, there is a long way to go.

Last week there were some upsets that shouldn't have happened. I would have gone up a few places in the standings.

[Ravage!!!]

My week one had to be the worst I've ever done with a sixteen game schedule. Agh. Oh well, there is a long way to go.

yeah.. starting off 8-8 really hurt me. Terrible choices on my part in week 1.

[girler]

My week one had to be the worst I've ever done with a sixteen game schedule. Agh. Oh well, there is a long way to go.

Me too. I've never forgot to pick most of the games before. :laugh: I'm such a dork! :doh:

[Canmore]

With my score week one I wish I could say I forgot. :laugh:

[Medford Bronco]

I see Rodgers killing our defense. If Hasselbeck can do as well as he did and he
is at the end of his career, what is a top 1-3 QB in the NFL going to do.

I think it will be scary :target: :flame:

[Northman]

Awesome, moved up into 2nd place with a chance for 1st.

[Thnikkaman]

Awesome, moved up into 2nd place with a chance for 1st.

I'm in a weighted league that I have paid to be in that I will win this week if Indy gets their first win tonight. I would have won if AZ could have held on yesterday.

[Bullgator]

Very nice, im up to 4th now. Woot!

your up to 2 now bizzle... im right behind you at 3 with the same record.

[Canmore]

There was a two way tie for the week 4 winner between Canmore and FaninAZ both with 14 games correct. The winner by tie breaker and our first repeat winner is

FaninAZ. Congratulations again! :elefant:

There was a 6 way tie for third place with 13 correct games.

The overall leader board shows Con_Valian in 1st with 46 and Bullgator and Northman tied for 2nd with 45.

Pick'n a Winner. I still need your Broncos Forums username so that we can get you your prizes from week 3.

[Canmore]

Thought I had it this week. Oh well, at least I've moved up from a tie for 47th place after week 1 to a tie for 7th place at the end of week 4. :lol:

[I Eat Staples]

I suck at picking games.

[Bullgator]

Hey, don't look now but the Florida fan who apparently doesn't know shit about pro ball is no. 1... what a world :D

[gnomeflinger]

Sweet! I think I won this week.

[Canmore]

Hey, don't look now but the Florida fan who apparently doesn't know shit about pro ball is no. 1... what a world :D

Slow start, but I'm coming!

[Canmore]

Sweet! I think I won this week.

Waiting for Yahoo to update. There were four with nine correct scores. Good luck. :beer:

[Jaws]

Sweet! I think I won this week.

Looks like you've pipped me twice this week by a whisker!

Congrats :beer:

[Canmore]

Week 5 once again goes to the tie-breaker. There was a 3-way tie, all with 10 correct games between slim, Gnomey's picks and Sharkie. The winner of the tie-breaker is

Gnomey's picks. Congratulations to Gnomeflinger. :elefant:

There was a 11 way tie for 4th.

Overall standings show Northman and Bullgator tied for 1st with 55 correct and slim, Canmore, FaninAz and Con_Valian tied for 3rd with 53.

[Lancane]

I got my ass kicked this week with my picks and dropped ten spots! :tsk:

[Canmore]

I got my ass kicked this week with my picks and dropped ten spots! :tsk:

:laugh::laugh::laugh: I got my rear handed to me week 1. Hopefully the other 16 weeks will be kinder to me. :D

[Canmore]

Sweet! I think I won this week.

Guess you nailed that!!!

[gnomeflinger]

Guess you nailed that!!!

The last time I won a Pick 'Em week was 2 years ago. I never expect to win, so when I do, it's a fun surprise.

[Northman]

The Minny and KC game hurt me. I kept going back and forth on picking those.

[Jaws]

The last time I won a Pick 'Em week was 2 years ago. I never expect to win, so when I do, it's a fun surprise.

And this is the best I've ever done.
2nd is the best I've done before.
I have had many sucky years of Pickem lol.

[girler]

Yay gnomie! I, once again failed by omission. I picked a couple weird ones on purpose, like KC- but then I didn't think there was a chance in hell I would even tie, so I didn't pick any tie breakers!!! :doh:

[LordTrychon]

:dance: :salute: :elefant:

[Northman]

Im still #1 overall. :p

[LordTrychon]

Im still #1 overall. :p

Really wished I'd gone with my gut on the SF game... I knew that was waiting to happen...

But if I decided on that risk, I probably end up taking 2-3 more risks too, and outsmart myself.

I'll take 12/13.

You've got a point on me, bud.... just wait.

Yea, i felt the same way in the Atlanta game. But you did a nice job on your picks. :beer:

[Canmore]

No tiebreaker this week. With 12 correct games the winner is

Trych's Picks. Congratulations to LordTrychon. :elefant:

Tied for second were Ziggy, Nick, Packerswin, Pick'n a Winner and Traveler with 11 correct games.

Overall standings show Northman and Bullgator tied for the lead with 64 correct games. Tied for third with 63 correct are Trych's Picks, Ziggy, slim, Con_Valian and Canmore.

[HammeredOut]

Yea, i felt the same way in the Atlanta game. But you did a nice job on your picks. :beer:

12 out of 13.. Thats vegas material. Professionals who make a living handicapping would have made off large on your bets. People hammer me, because I only make 10 bets a week, and call my 95% winning percentage a fluke because seemingly its impossible.

I bet on 4 games maybe 5 games. Usually 2 or 3 Point spreads, 2 game props on monday night, and 2 over/under total score.

North you are hitting on 12 out of 13 games. If you added in some props, over/under, and point spread, you would be going 18 for 19 in betting for the week.

[Canmore]

Lot of toss up matches this week. Should make for some interesting picks. Good luck to everyone.

This week could be a doozy, sadly I only had four wins a couple weeks back that kicked my ass in the rankings.

Yes. That's one way of putting it. I wouldn't be surprised to see some reshuffling in the overall standings and awfully interesting scoring for the week.

[FanInAZ]

I dropped 6 spots in the standing, but only dropped 1 back from 1st place. I’ve now got 10 weeks to make up 3 games.

[Northman]

12 out of 13.. Thats vegas material. Professionals who make a living handicapping would have made off large on your bets. People hammer me, because I only make 10 bets a week, and call my 95% winning percentage a fluke because seemingly its impossible.

I bet on 4 games maybe 5 games. Usually 2 or 3 Point spreads, 2 game props on monday night, and 2 over/under total score.

North you are hitting on 12 out of 13 games. If you added in some props, over/under, and point spread, you would be going 18 for 19 in betting for the week.

Yea, but thats the problem for me. In the past ive done bets (not big money) on using point spreads for NFL and College games but its far trickier doing that than just simply picking the winners. College is a tad easier because the usually dominant teams generally cover but its still riskier than just saying this team will win or not.

Been doing Pick'ems for about 15 years and usually do well but picking against the spread and the other choices is difficult. Never tried it, maybe it's something I should look into. ;)

You know what its not that hard... its a different animal...

Picking ALL the spread games is hard as hell but generally you pick a few games you think are locks for money... I usually do well with about 5-6 games.

I know people that are great spread pickers but for some reason they suck at picking straight winners... go figure.

Good Luck today guys.

[Ziggy]

This is a tough week for pickem. I saw 6 games that that I think could be decided by a turnover. I'm definitely not confident going into this weeks picks.

Pretty much the way I see it and I feel the same way you do. It's a tough week to pick.

[Lancane]

This sucks, I am 9-3 for the week, 10-3 if Baltimore wins tomorrow night...could be worse, but I don't see how I am going to catch up without a 13-0 week maybe two under my belt. That 4-9 week kicked my butt worse then I thought...ughhh!

:tsk:

[Northman]

I had a tough one this week.

[Canmore]

I had a tough one this week.

You too? :lol:

[Jaws]

My worst week since week 1.
I had a feeling I needed to be a little "crazier" with this week's picks when making them, but decided to play it safe after all.

[FlyByU]

I got 9 so far and if the ravens win I'll come away with 10.

[Lancane]

I got 9 so far and if the ravens win I'll come away with 10.

Same here, I just don't know if it will be enough to move up, I had a couple mediocre weeks at the very beginning and one truly horrific week of picks.

[FanInAZ]

The good news, I think I got 1 of the tie breakers clinched (Most points: New Orleans) and its possible that I could get a second tie breaker tonight (Jacksonville would need to score less than the 7 points that Indianapolis scored last night). The bad news, I'm 2 points out of 1st with only 1 game to go. I have a hunch that I wasn't the only one to pick Baltimore tonight. Nevertheless, a Baltimore win makes me 9-4 and keeps me hanging around for the season championship.

[Foochacho]

Oakland went 0 FaninAZ Jags would need 0.

[Jaws]

Anyone pick Jax?

[Northman]

Nope, i didnt. lol

[I Eat Staples]

The Ravens really aren't good for anything are they?

When I pick against them (againt the Jets) they win easily.

[Thnikkaman]

Woooo worst of people that actually made picks.

[MileHighCrew]

I have been horrible but I'll keep going with it

[Canmore]

This week Con_Valian, I Eat Staples and Pick'n a Winner all tied with 10 correct games. The winner via the tie-breaker is

Con_Valian. Congratulations! :elefant:

9 players were tied for 4th with 9 correct games.

There has been a reshuffling at the top of the overall leader board. Con_Valian leads with 73 correct games. Bullgator is 2nd with 72 and Northman 3rd with 71.

[Denver Native (Carol)]

This week, I think I got more WRONG than RIGHT :D

[Jaws]

CONgratulVALIANs :beer:

Weekly winner AND top of the league!

[Bullgator]

Man had a hard couple of weeks =(

[Canmore]

Man had a hard couple of weeks =(

You are only one back, I'd rather be in your spot than mine. :lol:

[FlyByU]

[Canmore]

We have another outright winner. With 11 correct games the winner of week 8 is

Northman. Congratulations! :elefant: (I think he wants to hang on to his CDs.)

5 people tied for second with 10 correct games.

In the overall standings Northman leads the way with 82 correct games, Con_Valian is second with 81 and Bullgator third with 80.

[T.K.O.]

I have'nt picked at all this year....can i just pick the Broncos to win this week and retire with 100% accuracy for the season?:confused::D:beer:

Actually, the pickem site declared him the winner before the Monday night game had even been played.

The funny thing is im would like to award someone some Cd's. But i cant help it im doing so well in the league this year. :lol:

Still a ways to go yet though.

[gnomeflinger]

I'm just happy to have won once. I still haven't gotten my Amazon prize, though.

I could end up with the crap kicked out of me this week, because I have some major upset picks, I have the Jets over the Bills, Seahawks over the Cowboys, Dolphins over the Chiefs and the Chargers over Green Bay, I nearly picked the Colts to upset the Falcons which if it happens I'll kick myself for changing the pick.

Could be gruesome if I am wrong.

You know Miami and Indy are going to win one, somewhere, along the way. But not sure the Bills over the Jets really should be considered an upset

[Lancane]

You mean the Jets over the Bills, everyone and their grandma is picking Buffalo outside the New York/Jersey area. Miami, can pull it off I believe, the one I might regret the most is picking Seattle to beat Dallas, but then again who expected St. Louis to be New Orleans.

[Lancane]

Holy Sheet, I may actually pull this off Rav!

Miami is up over Kansas City, New York (J) is up on Buffalo, I changed my Indianapolis pick in time, the birds are stomping them. Seattle has kept Dallas under 20 so far, if they could just score a couple scores they'd be back in it.

:shocked:

:shocked:

I also had Miami over KC and NYJ over Buffalo. Jets should have been favored, the Bills are not for real and the Jets are a very good team. I did pick Dallas and GB though. :cool:

I was 7 for 7 on the early games, and 2 for 5 on the late games. Bad finish but at least one of the games I got wrong was a Bronco upset.

Got my ass handed to me in afternoon games though, so far I am 7-5, but I picked Pittsburgh over Baltimore and Philadelphia over Chicago.

ooops... me too

[Lancane]

ooops... me too

And so Pittsburgh loses near the end! :tsk:

7-6 for Sunday, I hope like hell that Philadelphia wins at this point.

[I Eat Staples]

I also picked Pitt, I have a bone to pick with Ike Taylor now. I have 9 so far and I picked Philly tonight.

[FanInAZ]

:shocked: What an upside down week :shocked: None of the top players for the year are @ the top of the standings for this week :shocked:

[FlyByU]

Well if the Bears beat the Eagles I'll have 10 this week

[rcsodak]

And so Pittsburgh loses near the end! :tsk:

7-6 for Sunday, I hope like hell that Philadelphia wins at this point.
Same here. I'm also on sirius' pigskin pickem, and dont know why i have 10 more right there than i do here. Brainfarts is certainly at the top of my excuse list, tho.

Woo Hoo! I won a week!! This was quite unexpected to me!

[Foochacho]

Changed my rams-cardinals pick at the last minute. I need to learn to not overthink and leave it be. I could of had 11.

[Foochacho]

Or I will just send hate mail to Patrick Peterson.

[Northman]

Oh man, so many hard picks this week. Its either going to make me or break me.

[gnomeflinger]

I go by gut feeling, and not stats.
