Pick'em league

They update the games, just not the total. I checked - Bill is in the lead with 56, I have 55, DT 53.

Yep, CBS Sports version does in real team. They are all updated now. Lots of upsets.

Bill is in the lead, Mexican Hawk and yours truly tied for 2nd, followed by DT and then Michael K.

Some fine predicting overall.

Thanks again for setting it up. Great idea!

Had to look at Bil's brilliant picks. How did you pick that Saints over Packers upset?????

[Sibelius Hindemith]

Thanks! I'm in but also joined too late to pick tonight's game. Also, I'm having a problem with Tiebreaker 2. There's no place to enter my picks.

Question: do the "Confidence Points" need to be filled in? Not sure what the purpose of that is.

Yes, the confidence points are how confident you are in each pick. If its Brady vs. the Texans it is 16 points. If its a coin flip in your mind then only 1 point. Most confidence points wins. Chad (daBronx) and I are winning because we both put 16 points on Brady last night.

Ah ok got it. Thanks for the explanation Darren.

Since it appears you didn't choose the confidence points your score was 0 (zero).

However, since you hit on 10 of 16 picks which was second best, i propose that you be spotted 50 points which, although keeps you in last place, at least gives you a fighting chance to make up the deficit. It's up to SeattleAddict.

[SeattleAddict]

I don't know if I have that power. Lemme check what I can do.

[Sibelius Hindemith]

Thanks, although i just meant for our purposes. Or does Yahoo games actually give prizes to the winners?

[SeattleAddict]

naw, only DT will provide prizes. I can't adjust the scores, but I figure it'll be more of a weekly challenge, and if the overall tally at the end is close, we can revisit the times where all of us will inevitably fuck up something.

First game of the year and with Rogers doing virtually nothing team oriented in the offseason and the Saints had a solid D last year...it made for a chance of an upset.

Brilliant! I for one did not see that coming. Your explanation makes perfect sense, but I didn't see it coming.

Anyone else see the Aaron Rodgers meme from his interview this week? The dude looks like a toolbag, and the test is

"Aaron Rodgers looks like Nick Cage playing Aaron Rodger in a movie about Tom Brady"!

So funny, the next one was...

"Aaron Rodgers looks like everyone that died in all three John Wick movies"

Too much good stuff right there. I love it when that prick has to eat humble pie.
