    I will send my payment since it will be necessary to pay one of the other 19 people. Just got back from attending Mass and 'coffee time' afterwards (it was in honor of my sister's passing a year ago and my agnostic BIL hosted it so it was a must do). Anyway, I missed the 1:00 cut off and probably would have picked all losers anyway; retaining my last place position so I cannot be cocky in my lateness like some people (TWTM, ahem).

    4-2, better this week!
    Damn the Thursday night game was unwatchable. The penalty calls again yesterday were maddening. Fucking refs are becoming such a part of the game and it makes me lose my shit.
    Even though I ended up losing with the Broncos I thought the end of that game was great. I really dislike the Sea Chickens but they are tough as shit.

    with 19 people we can do this:


    19 x $40= $760

    $10 into pot each week (17 weeks) to go to any who make 6 correct picks in a week

    this pot will roll over, so if no one goes 6-for-6 in week 1, week 2 is worth $20, and so on

    if 2, or more go 6-for-6 in a week, pot will be split

    this is paid out at end of season





    end of season payout

    $760 - $170 = $590

    1st place wins $360

    2nd place wins $160

    3rd place wins $70

    I think more for 1st place and less for 3rd. IMO.

    400 for 1st. 150 for 2nd. And 40 for 3rd(basically money back).

    Thank you all. It was a very good weekend financially since I bet all of these teams with my bookie as well. I needed that after an AWFUL week 2. God I love gambling.

    Made my picks - so at least I'm ahead of week 1 and 3. we shall not discuss week 2. But I could get that 10.00 this week - I really, really could!!!

    It says that I haven't paid in the officepooljunkie website, and I am PIF, so is it just updating this week Horos?

    I WILL have a number other than 0 next to my name (slackermom) this week!!

    Congrats Indy71!!

    i forget the number but teams coming off a game against the chip kelly led eagles have an atrocious record.....combine that with a short week and you get the thrashing the skins got on thursday. something to keep an eye on though.

    Is that right eh? So interesting. There was a stat like this last year or the year before with teams that were coming off a game against Seattle. Every team Seattle played and beat went on to lose the following week. I think they said because Seattle's defence was so physical that teams were banged up and couldn't play as well.

    Gonna keep an eye on this for sure.

    Before kickoff, I wonder if I should try a George Costanza and make the opposite picks in my games. If every instinct I have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right! Might go 5-0 on the day.

    yeah i remember seeing that too. in this case, it's that teams are just exhausted by the pace the eagles play at.

    Waitress : Tuna on toast, coleslaw, cup of coffee.
    George : Yeah. No, no, no, wait a minute, I always have tuna on toast. Nothing’s ever worked out for me with tuna on toast. I want the complete opposite of on toast. Chicken salad, on rye, untoasted … and a cup of tea.
    Elaine : Well, there’s no telling what can happen from this.
    Jerry : You know chicken salad is not the opposite of tuna, salmon is the opposite of tuna, ‘cos salmon swim against the current, and the tuna swim with it.
    George : Good for the tuna.
