Doesn't matter. Just another colossal screw job on Toddy! The world hates me and takes every chance it can get to stick it to me!


Or I screwed up. One or the other...

Odd that six people lost their spot just by forgetting to pick. Is there a reduction of interest in this game? Should I not bring it back next season?

Good luck!

I believe they will win one. Bears have been one of my patsies. I will take an order of Minnesota this week and leave you to die by the Brown.

Status: offline 		I am actually flirting with picking Cleveland to win in the picks pool. I have thought so much and so little of the Jets this year. Every year there is that team that I think can beat anybody and lose to anybody. Early on it was Jets, now I don't think they can beat anybody.

Houston is like that. Although now I know they are what they have always been since they became better than terrible and that is a team that can beat up on crappy teams and flirt with but ultimately get schooled by good teams.

Baltimore is now officially terrible.

Oakland does remarkably well on road, so remarkable that they are due to lose on the East coast to an inferior Tampa team in my opinion. Detroit I was high on them early and they choked at Green Bay, I got down on them and now they win 3 in a row and just as I pick them this week there is no doubt in my mind they most likely will lay an egg on the road.

Okay - the Survival Pool is officially reset. I'll put the word out on the Viking thread too.

Usually I consider it was risky taking a road team. But it was the Vikings against the hapless Bears! Instead we got the Cutler, as Brett Farve for Halloween, led Bears last night! Accurate and improvisational lasers and shovels!

I'll ask the same about the Picks Pool in that thread.
