I don't think you have to pick any more games before tonight, but I think you need to pick the most and fewest teams also before tonight.

You are right Carol. After looking more closely, you have to pick the tiebreaker part 2 portion before tonight's game.

Good luck to everyone in the pick-em. I can't pick for shit. I'm great at picking with the points spread, I even won a league where we had to pick every game all season against the spread, but pick-em? (OF course, picking against the spread when you have no $ riding on each pick is a lot easier than gambling in Vegas).

Kudos to the winners.

Go Patriots!

Considering that its extremely unlikely that Carol (or anyone else for that matter) is going to pick the Bills, you should be able to officially declare victory as soon as our picks are locked in 5 minutes before kick-off. I don't think it would be premature for you to be practicing your victory speech.

I picked the Thursday night game got it right. I usually pick the Sunday and Monday night games on Saturday but must have forgotten to save them. Sucks because I was in second place at the time.

Canmore
10-30-2018, 03:15 PM
Lots of good scores this week and some great ones. At the top with a perfect score, 14-0

ME!!! Yea!!!:elefant::elefant:

I needed that.

In second, only missing the Broncos game is Carol. I don't think Carol ever picks against the Broncos.

Tied for third with 12 right are FanInAZ, Davii, Mrs. Canmore, Bronco4ever and GarbaGEMen. Good job by all.

In the overall standings, MO has opened up a three game lead on Ziggy and BORDERLINE with 81 correct.

I hate when I do that...I decide on my picks by Thursday and usually Wednesday. When decided I code them in. How did I get Jacksonville. I spent ten minutes telling my brother how uninformed he was to take Jacksonville. Then I accidentally take them...thinking I took Indy. At least I didn't miss hitting save.

I gad a hard time this week trying to find the upsets.

I think I picked favorites all the way.

Didn’t see the Bills, Browns, Titans or Dallas winning. Also thought Tampa would beat the Redskins. What a crappy week I had.

I got the Redskins, but didn’t get those other four. I initially had Dallas and changed it when I entered the score for the tiebreaker. Whoops.

11-12-2018, 05:36 PM
This week is definitely up for grabs. 5 of us are 1 game behind SR &, for the 1st Monday night this season, both teams are so evenly matched (nice way of say they're both so bad :D ) that it may be a 50/50 slit as far as how the top 6 contestants pick. If SR picks it right, he win out right. If not, the question we won't know until the picks are locked in is, how many will be involved in the tie breaker?

I didn't participate, but congrats MO!

I may have to join next year, just to knock him off his perch. :D

What’s up fellas! Is this not going down this year. Do y’all want me to set one up?

I was about to put up a message. After I don't remember how many seasons, I'm retiring.

FanInAZ is going to run the Pick'em League.

I'm sure it will be up soon.

I'm having a rollercoaster stretch lately, or I would've gotten it up by now. Feel free to run it this year.
