can't get in to make my picks. anyone else?

I just got in. Made picks earlier in the week, though....

Just did mine, no problem.

Vic

I got in.

was able to get in about 30 minutes before start time. used my daughters phone at work today.

Took a beating this week with 7 losses. Oakland KC and Washington all should have won hosed me.

Pretty tight at the top of the leader board. We should have put up a plug each for the overall winner. Too late for that now?

to go from seventh to first in one weekend, yeah I would say its kind of close at the top.

Great job red. Quite a comeback in one week!

Vic

Gonna be a good season long battle.... After digging myself a good hole in the first five weeks, I finally got back on the track this week

Last week was brutal, I couldn't pick my nose! I got saved by a few best bets.

Vic

Looking for some home teams to wake up this second half.....

Looking at current lines for next week..... No home dogs.... SF/Seattle is a pickem???? In London. NO/Pitt is a pickem too....:smash: crazy.

Browns and Raiders made a lot of cake for the bookies yesterday....

Ain't that the truth! And a tough game to pick for "bail out Monday":wall:

Vic

Too much parity in todays NFL, Vegas is laughing all the way to the bank.

Glad to see my main competition at the top of the leader board all picked the Steelers last night. Had to figure NO had a chance at home on Halloween.

Not revealing my pick for tonight but will say it is a "best bet" and could put me on top or sink me to 5th palce. :biglaugh:

I have the lead group in sight again..... Just need to grab back a few here and there every week.

About 3:50 PM I remembered to put in my picks :wall:

You all are very lucky, take my wining percentage and add the games i forgot to pick on time and I'm kicking your azzes (OK, at least in the top 3 ) :devil2:

I almost have a lock on last place, Googan is threatening my position but I wll prevail!!!!!!!

Got your wish.... You are splitting pick with Bob and Bill....

Get your picks in.....

Another tight week at the top.... Who still has a best bet for tonight? (I don't)

My pick is a best bet 2nite, might not matter with everyone going the same way on this one.

Tough week, thought buffalo was due but they continue to fall just short. Pats screwed everyone. Those best bets are the ticket to victory in this race... :jump1:

Half way through the season now. Gonna be a battle to the finish.

If I hadn't missed nearly two weeks of picks, I'd be kickin' all yer azzes :deadhorse::whackin::fart2::ninja::want::morons: :starwars:

I have been lucky with the best bets. They killed me last year. Good close race this year. Good luck to all the rest of the way.

Vic

The best bets are rocking me.

The late games are going sour.... KC down by 35 with 5 to go in the half. Getting tougher to make a move up in the standings as the season moves on.

Got smoked at 4.........:smash:

Only way to make a move now is to bet some underdogs... would have been a good day to do it.

Had a great first half but got smoked in every late game including two best (not) bets.

Overall I am picking better than most of the pros in the pre-game shows. Know better than to put my $$$ where my slightly inflated head is though... :wall:

Long way to go yet! to early to start going for the dogs. Best bets are the thing to watch!

How about them 4 O'clock games!What happen to the Chiefs and were did those Cowboys come from?

Rough week for all.... Only Dotstripers was above .500.

Hey, I went 9 - 5 last week.

Yeah, my oversight.... nice week!

Yo Spin...... 14-0 so far Nice week!

Thanx Ross, but I somehow made no progress on the leader board. :huh:

Musta been an easy week to pick because seems everyone did quite well.

Ya, I'm 10-4 with 15 BB points, which in a normal week would lead our league. This week, it put me at the bottom.... Going with the Giants to try to grab five from you front runners.....

everyone did darn well this week. Spin you are smokin hot this week. maybe you'll win one of the weekly prizes. suggest you use the tie breaker at the bottom of the page.

I always fill out the tiebreaker, never thought it might come down to it. Wish there was a way to see how many are 15-0 going into tonight. :scratch:

Awesome job on the picks Spinncognito! I hope you win tonight and run em all! A weekly prize would be a nice bonus.

Vic

Thanks. Well, I did it! 16-0! Can someone tell me how much $$$ I would have won if I had played a "card" and got them all right? Of course if I had actually placed bets I would have overthunk it all and lost all my cash... :uhuh:

My tiebreaker #'s were off. Guessed 44 points they scored 49 so I am guessing no bonus.

Despite it all, still not on top of the elader board! :soon:

Good Picks Spinncognito!! Clean sweep. Everyone had over 10 wins,quite a few with 14, but you took the cake.

still close,

Spin, looking at overall standings for week 11, you were the only one in the entire league that went 16-0. believe that you should win the $25 weekly prize. just go to standings and look at overall for week 11.

Nice job Spin!

Tight race up a the top too - Get 'Em In!

Thanks redcrbber. Took me a bit to figure out how to view the overall standings. I got no email notification to confirm. Perhaps they will send me a check in the mail. Whatever, nice if it comes, cool to be the only one out of almost 600. Luck plays a huge part (JETS) (PATS)

This week is probably the toughest I have seen to pick. Lotsa games that could go either way. Hope I do not go 0-16 :rotf2:

Good luck everyone this week....

So how do you view the overall standings?

Going with two road dogs at 4...... weird without a Pats game....

Hey Bob can you give me a little breathing room hahhaha:love:

think you have too much already:biglaugh:

Ross, on the standings page, just above Rank and Team name is an option key.

Game tonight........get 'em in, at least that pick.

I am in! Thanks for the reminder.

Not a lot of chances to make a move in these 4 o'clock games, unless some of you have San Diego as a best bet....

No but I had Payton "Mr. Interception" Manning and the colts as a best bet. 9-4 going into tonight but everyone above me is doing better... :wave: I do like seeing him lose though, they may not even make the playoffs!

Bid game coming up next...

I scored all of my best bets. Trying to make some breathing room, but you guys are like a 5 year old in the toy store ..... :uhuh:

Get your picks in, especially for Thursday (JohnR), and don't forget to save them.....

Lot of home dogs this week... Upsets at this time of year seems to be the only way to make a move.....

Nice job by stillers and taints, tied for first place overall weekly.... Whatcha have for the tie breakers?

Thanks nightfighter! I picked 40 points with 4 td's and 4 fg's. I don't know how it will work out? Maybe spin can tell us if he got his $25.00 and did they contact him?

Vic

Nice job on the picks!

I have not heard from anyone on that site about the $25. I PM'ed the guy who welcome PM'ed me when I first signed up but he has not replied. Perhaps they hand out the cash atthe end of the season? I am not gonna lose sleep over it but it would be cool if the prize is offered.

Just made my picks for this week, a couple of tricky ones in the mix. Hopefully my trusty coin-flipping method will continue to produce good results... :uhuh:

I just sent this email off to them. Hope I get a response. have to admit this has been the best year participation wise in the 2-3 years of doing this. Why, it is almost exciting!!

Thank You in advance.

Thanx for the effort to secure my alledged winnings!
It has been exciting. I have done pick'ems before through espn but it was always vs the spread.

Suggestion for next season- Lets all put up some pluggage for the winner.... :jump1:

wow that was a quick response.

Hi ,



All weekly prize winners are contacted at season’s end for prize distribution.

Sweet.... still time to multiply the $$$ :soon:

It's Thursday night football..... get it in

:uhuh:I fell someone breathing down my neck

You better be rooting against your Baltimore pick, or you will have been caught......He's got a best bet on you tonight.....

He has been caught but, the fat lady ain't even warming up! Lucky with the best bets. I am keeping an eye on redcrbbr! He beat me last year in the last week! This is a lot of fun.

Vic

I got spanked in the early games 6 of 10 games wrong. hope I wasn't the only one.

Bob, I feel your pain.... got smoked. Just lucky I got picks in on Tuesday, though didn't get all BBs in. I got stuck in Conn. on a roofing job from hell. Friday through Sunday. No computer, no football.Got home last night at 8pm and crashed. Missed the Pats game too. Also trying to support a sibling (and her daughters) going through a shocking divorce development after 38+ years...... so wasn't exactly focused on NFL this weekend.

Wow how the mighty doth fallen :wall:

Just flipped my pick to NO for MNF. The rest of you are ALL on Atlanta... I just don't think the birds are as good as their 12-2 record.

I had NO but flipped it to Atlanta last minute. Ryan had not lost at home. You have hung in there well Ross.

Just made my picks for the final week. Always tough to pick week 17 due to so many teams who have nothing to play for, resting players and such. Tight enough at the top that things could flip significantly this week. Best bets are the key to ultimate victory. Good luck guys...

Live or die by the upsets.... My record sucks. More losses than anyone. Killed myself early on. Not enough real estate left to make up enough ground to challenge now. Almost flipped to Minn last night, but.... Would have been enough for a tie for first place weekly...

Sucks this is the last week. We need a playoff pool.

Can't follow the crowd this final week if you want to make up some ground.... I'll be picking a few major upsets in a last hour attempt to climb up the standings. How are you playing the last week?

it is a tough week to pick, not sure who is bringing their A game. Brady may sit out half the game, Philly with Vic hurt may or may not play. Alot of don't matter games out there. However it goes, it has been an enjoyable year playing against all of you.

Good first half except my one loss was KC and I had them as a best bet- a switch a made this morning. I should have learned to go with my original picks. Hoping all you guys had NO as a best bet as it seems I was the only one who went with TB.

:soon:

Look again... But I too had KC lay a double egg on me. You went 7-1, best move in the top pending best bets. My two longshots killed me and was 5-3. More longshots at 4 for me....

Well my hat is off to Red! I could not get my last best bet in to try for a tie!!!! It has been fun playing again this year. Great job by all. Note to iamskippy, the Chiefs will not get by the ravens!

Congrats Bob. Makes the season fun. Really enjoy this and look forward to next year.

Nice going red/bob and thanx for the opportunity to play. Just ten points from 1st thru 3rd and close all the way through the weeks. Next year lets put up some pluggage for the winner...

Good year everyone.Real close up top all year. Next year will be better for me.
Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device

thanks for the congrats. It truly was anybodys game all season long. Figure next year we'll put a few plugs on the table.

Lots of fun! Beware, I intend not to miss a week and half of pics next year :tooth: .

Thanks Bob for putting this on :btu:
