I don't know Dag....I'm doing fairly well.... Thanks for asking.... Jeni and I are tied, with 9 so far...I can live with a 10, if Green Bay wins...even if it means I tie with Jeni... That would mean I would gain 3 on Tres .....again..... Kwea

Man, the late games just slaughtered me. Darn you St. Louis!! At least I picked Detroit over Atlanta.

Wow, Kwea, you did do well. If you get the game tonight right you can get to within one of my overall score.

What is really sad is that I overslept on Sunday ( due to Saturday night's high school reunion festivities) and didn't make my picks in time. The default picks are the visiting team. I'm not feeling to terrible about the rest of y'all's poor showing.

It's the last time I pick them, that's for damn sure. I hope my parents didn't have too horrible a time at the game... I know I did watching the first five minutes of it.

That's for sure. But truthfully, I'm willing to sacrifice the Packers' season for the Badgers' any time. So... Lose, Pack, Lose!

I'll end up with one less point than UW the Bombs and Jeni this week, and at worst tied with everyone else for the week. So, I'll end up one point ahead of UW, two ahead of Jeni, and at least 3 ahead of everyone else when this week is over. Not bad, not bad at all, although I am losing a little ground each week.

Yay for picking intelligently. I'd picked earlier this week (Tuesday morning, in fact) when I was pissed off at football. Then I came back on Thursday and changed nearly all my picks. Go me! [More importantly, ON WISCONSIN!!!!!]

Rub it in Kwea...... I did so horrible -- both in this one and the picks we are doing at work. Since I was in Chicago I made very hurried choices, and bad choices. So I only got six right last week in my work's picks, and only 8 right here. Kind of blows any previous good weeks.... Farmgirl

I really hate that WT* is becoming more and more common on Hatrack. I mean, I know it is not against the rules or anything -- it just bothers me. I can't read it without hearing the actual words in my head and I read through, so it is that same as if it really just said outright. Not to criticize -- just letting you know it unsettles me. Surely there are other things that can be said that convey the same meaning with less offense.. Farmgirl

That isn't my point, Dag....I am impressed with your overall record, as well as anyone else who is over 90%....But 99.5%, well that is just amazing... I am not relly tha far behind any of you, just by a few games really, but it is still impressive, that's all... Kwea Kwea

That 99.5% is percentile ranking - I've gotten 69.3% of my picks correct. Best in the game nationwide is 68 right now. Dagonee

Of course KC won, I picked against them for the second time. So far I'm 0 for 6 on Kansas City games.

Well, this past contest, a lot of teams let us down: All of us picked Denver All of us picked Seattle All of us picked St. Louis (and we were all let down) All but one of us picked Atlanta All but one of us picked Indianapolis. Sure how next week is better. Farmgirl
