I swore I had picked for last week, but oh well lol.

Having won the championship several times, I know that you have risk jumping in front of speeding freight trains in order to cross the tracks before getting splattered if you want to win it all. Sometimes you miss judge the speed of the train and get splattered anyways just like what happened to me when the Jets upset the Cowboys, but I'd never just in front of the train as closely as you did when you got splattered unless I had no choice. Having pick almost all mediocre teams so far, I still have all the legitimate SB contenders & most of the legitimate play-off contenders available to me. So I've good reason to believe that I most likely won't have to make that choice.

Actually, unless Slim all of the sudden resumes making picks, he has clinched the rear

Congrats SR

Barring any surprising developments, I have my 5 of my next 7 weeks of survival pick already planned. I'm also pretty sure who I'm taking week the other 2 weeks, but I'd rather use acceptable alternatives if at all possible. I shouldn't have to make any tough decisions to make until the last 2 weeks of the regular season, assuming that the competition is still going.

Congratulations Ziggy…
