The Bengals gotta Bengal. Still, I didn't have the balls to put many points on it!

Or why they don't build whether proof stadium. Kills me that in never rains in the summer and the roof at T Mobile is always open yet there are constant rain delays and rain outs all over the country. They should mandate that any team that builds a stadium without a retractable roof forfeits if there is a rain out.
Yeah, in today's day and age, no reason for weather to have a huge impact in professional sports.

BTW, how about Addict not only picking the Steelers this week, but putting 12 on them! WTF? pretty sure he just clicked the wrong button there and got lucky! LOL
How the eff did you know the Chargers were going to handle the Bengals, on the road? :x

;)
I have played quite a few of these over the years, and never lost. but with 5 weeks to go looks like an uphill battle to catch the both of you, especially if i play it conventionally with who i actually think will win. guess i better start working on a concession speech.

It should be a 3 person race between Bill, Michael, and SeattleAddict but they screwed up getting their picks in which is where i sneak in to steal it away.

the greatest ability is availability. We're the Carsons, Pennys and Adams of the pick'em world.

I have been in these for a decade and this is by FAR my worst season ever. Typically there are not a lot of upsets so my methodology works pretty well but this year it seems there have been more upsets than predictable outcomes so I'm screwed.

I didn't really screw up so much as just be an idiot one week. I left the 12 and 13 unassigned, and won two games that I got a total of 0 for instead of 25! No clue how I did that or how I never caught it before game time. Oh well, I think DT logged in and screwed me on purpose! LOL

I'm actually tied for 3rd with 112 wins but 6th due to bad point allocation.

If I had assigned those points? Pretty sure my lead might be insurmountable! LOL Could just pick chalk the rest of the way.
