Hippo-Kramer Week 10 (always be closing)

[smurphy]

One step forward, 2 steps back. Props to Happy Hippo for being the only participant with positive points this week. ...I feel ridiculous congratulating her, however, because she's already congratulated herself multiple times.

:hail :hail :hail :hail :hail

The rest of us were on the wrong side of a lot of fixed games, amassing an impressive -16 combined points. Two managed to go winless, and the consencus pick (SD) got slaughtered. I do hope we are making some people somewhere a lot of money.

Thanks smurphy. It's about time I got some of the credit I deserve for being one of the best NFL cappers of all time.



P.S. Who do you like in the Bobcats game tonight?

P.S. Who do you like in the Bobcats game tonight?

Is Felton out?

I'd go under. ....So you know what that means you should do.:SIB

 

[smurphy]

Rolltide -3 (11-14-2)
Dunclock -5 (11-14-2)

DAMN - the ribs battle is heating up. Rolltide left the door open and Alan is making a midseason charge.

Yeap, he is out - your knowledge of the Bobcats continues to astound me. It has to be side though, smurph. I don't care about the total. Which side, please do enlighten me (they are playing the Sixers by the way...that's the team from Philly, not the one from Utah).

It's amazing what you can learn on espn.com. I guess I'd take the Cats and points then. Philly sucks, right?

Thanks smurphy, that eases my mind.

You are absolutely correct, Philly does suck, and the Bobcats are one of the best teams in the league :jump:

Us U.S. Americans like to save space (because we are famous for our conservation efforts) by using a ' instead of .5 or 1/2. Thus, you will actually receive an extra half point for your Pringles pick, but must give up an extra half point on Indy.

Ok with that being said I will take and extra half for the bengholes (offer is still open Jack for straight up)
and I will give 3 1/2 for the colts.
Still double on the cowgirls.

Cards qualify for your system this week. You losing faith?

I abandoned the system a few weeks ago (at +.500 results). It just so happens that my capped picks matched up with the system plays last week (ugh).

I will be rooting for the Cards, though. Got some sweet (free) tickets for the game.

 

[smurphy]

2 people have picked, and 2 people have doubled up on Dallas. ...Hmmmmm. I'm pretty sure others will do the same. Giants are probaby a fantastic selection.

 

[bjfinste]

Like the Eagles were last week?
