Updated standings:
Aaron: 39-25...Ah - I get it...<br /><br />Updated <a href="https://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=tmgJAjbTIzgNCkaWRbaFkeg&hl=en#gid=0" rel="nofollow">standings</a>:<br /><br />Aaron: 39-25-3 (+14)<br />Scott: 20-12-2 (+8)<br />Royce: 22-18-1 (+4)<br />MP: 0-0-0 (+0)<br /><br />I'm super torn by how I should approach these next few weeks. Being 6 games back, but still showing a .625 win percentage hurts - especially when that is higher than the .609 win % of the 'leader'. I guess I have to start picking more than the 3-4 games I currently go with.

I never felt confident about the Dolphins over the 6-3 Bears.

I honestly thought we'd win 24-14, and be able to run all over the Bucs. Nope - the Niners suck.Scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01613335439008713150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469264630957046565.post-65626240784022183232010-11-21T17:04:09.585-08:002010-11-21T17:04:09.585-08:00I went 6-2.

Even though I was technically wrong, I am still proud of my Santonio Holmes, Donovan McNabb and Calvin Johnson Bold predictions.

I will enthusiastically take Aaron's shortcut: the Cards and the points.<br /><br />Cleveland +1.5: an okay team playing a bad team and GETTING more than a point? Cha-ching.<br /><br />Baltimore -10: a good team playing a horrible team and laying 10 points? Okay, not exactly cha-ching, but even though the Ravens don't blow people out I think the Panther are so terrible that the Ravens can accidentally win really big here.<br /><br />Tampa Bay +3: single dumbest line of the week. Is TB not good? What am I missing here? Love that the better team is getting 3 points.<br /><br />In other news, I too am very excited for the Pats vs Colts. I might the first half though so hopefully it comes down to the wire. I'm also glad the Chargers have a Monday night game and I hope we acquit ourselves well by blowing out the Broncos.Roycehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09026696036192099488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2469264630957046565.post-18267699413201841082010-11-20T23:03:39.605-08:002010-11-20T23:03:39.605-08:00I'm taking Detroit +6.5, Green Bay -3, Baltimo...I'm taking Detroit +6.5, Green Bay -3, Baltimore -10, Tampa Bay +3, Atlanta -3, Cleveland +1.5, Buffalo +5.5, Houston +7.Aaronhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04576218056344224419noreply@blogger.com
