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.

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...

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?

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

Hey, I went 9 - 5 last week.

Unfortunately, it didn't help much because I was terrible for ablout 6 weeks leading up to week 10.

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.....

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.

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...

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!

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

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.

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

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....

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

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....
