Ouch, I only got three out of ten right... and I thought for sure St. Louis would beat the spread! Argh. They lost so bad.
Rassafrassa... stupid Bills. Stupid 49ers. (They're "my team" but still. Bah.) All I have to say is Tom Brady better come through for me tonight.
(Quiet boys, I meant in the football game for my LP. Though I will admit he's very good-looking.)

Well, Cleveland won like I hoped they would, but I did a pretty poor job other than that...
It doesn't matter though. The Pack is 4-0!!

To Nova Girl: I assumed your LP referred to Pittsburgh, but I wasn't 100% clear. If, in fact, you intended it to be for Arizona, I'll take your word for it and adjust your score. Just let me know, 'kay?

No one got the bonus point this week, btw, as no one guessed good ol' Brett Favre with his 344 yards (and, incidentally, his record-breaking touchdowns!). The other QBs weren't even close!

Miami at Houston (-5.5)

***IMPORTANT***RULE CHANGE***IMPORTANT***
One last tweak: We are now picking ALL games! Of these picks, you will designate one of them your Upset Special and another your Lead Pipe Lock! Each of these will be scored the same as they had been before: Upset Special with two points for beating the spread and three for winning outright and Lead Pipe Lock scoring four points for being right and minusing four if you're wrong.
To choose your Upset Special, place [US] next to your pick. Note: This pick MUST be for the underdog in the matchup!
To choose your Lead Pipe Lock, place [LP] next to your choice for covering the spread or winning/beating the spread.
Point spreads are only considered in these two matchups you designate; otherwise it's still just winners and losers.
Tie Breaker (total points scored in game)
Jets and Giants
Bonus Point (pick one)
Which of these top five offenses will produce the most total yards this week?
Dallas, New England, Indianapolis, Detroit or Denver?

I hope the new rule tweak is clear! Let me know if it wasn't. Should be the last tweak until we get to the postseason...

Oh well, the Packers threw away my Lead Pipe Lock with a crappy second half! Luckily, I'll salvage between 6-8 points this week with a rather good percentage picking winners this week (10-3 or 11-3 if Dallas wins), my best yet! So if Dallas loses, I'll have six, if they win I'll have seven and if Dallas accumulates less than 412 net yards offense (New England's leading the bonus point), I'll have 8. Go Dallas! (but don't rack up too many yards! )

And Cali...you picked New England for your Upset Special--sorry but you have to pick an underdog, which the Patriots clearly weren't. I can't award you any point at all for the Patriot win because it was an improper US pick.
Sorry!

Well, I'm at 14 already this. Hell yeah! I pretty much dominated I guess I'm a little less emotional about my picks than I am with the college football picks. If Dallas wins and can beat New England's offensive yards, I could really do some damage! Looking forward to seeing the standings...

Agg, that's what I get for waiting 'til the last minute. Dumb, duh. No worries, Lardy. I shouldn't have been such a procrastinator.
