If this were hoops, I wouldn't even try. And you may be right. The reality is I'm setting up for a potential disaster - I could lose to a girl, a dog, a guy from San Francisco, and god knows what other elements are in this thing. ...I could end up making Lloyd Carr look like Vince Lombardi.

don't worry..we still will love you.

Good luck to everyone! :00hour

Oh and Andy, I can already taste those Dreamland ribs.... I like mine with some extra sauce! :SIB

You want to throw me some extra white bread in with that extra sauce:shrug:

And then you go picking my Titans, you know we own the Fags [sorry I mean the Jags]:mj07:

I am getting my three:padlock: :padlock: :padlock: ready

Don't want to post them too soon, I know Kramer is sitting back waiting for my picks so he can copy them:nono:

I'm gonna have to back out of the Titans pick because only a fool goes opposite AR on a football bet.

Showing serious indecisiveness and shaky confidence early on, but I'm again changing my mind. The final final selections are..

Bills (x2), Rams, FALCONS!:mj23: :s2:

....these will remain unless pops posts a pick contrary to these before kickoff tomorrow.

I cannot endorse your decision at all. Apparently you show the sort of judgement that would fit well in this competition. You still have time to bump the booty.

It's all about the odds. Here's a trend you may not be aware of...

During the month of September - Away Dogs of 3' to 6' in the AFC South are 0-4 lifetime when AR 182 shows at minimal a lean on the favorite WHEN AR is currently owning a winning record on Under bets of 45-55 for Mountain West home games for the season up to that point.

If I were an outsider (and without knowing much about half the field), I'd lean towards bjfinste. He's a streaky capper who seems to be well above .500 overall. The only reason I'm even allowing him in is because he drinks too much and is distracted by school, thus leveling the playing field a bit.
