I will need you to write a 500 word essay on your rationale for picking the Panthers though to prove it wasn't just luck. lol

I won't give 500 words, but I thought Atlanta mostly sucks, the NFL doesn't want to see a team go 1-13, Panthers are at home in front of their 35 suffering fans, sloppy weather -- and just maybe Bryce Young would finally pull his head partially out of his ass before their season ends.

Young didn't pull his head out, but the rest of us underestimated just how stupid Arthur Smith is, and just how shitty Desmond Ritter is. That INT in the Red Zone by Atlanta is just some of the dumbest shit every. You are up one and in FG range, and the QB rolls left and throws across his body...for a pick. They didn't deserve to win after that. Similar to the Titans. Those two games are why picking games in the NFL are so hard. Add in what has happened like the last four Monday nights!?

I had so much fun waxing all your little bee-hinds with my giant landslide two-point victory margin this week for my only pool win ever. I would enjoy doing that again this week as well.

I am so thankful I somehow missed that or I would have had to buy a new TV set. lol

Haha, I don't know if I would recommend the strategy of not assigning points and picking the Panthers....but it sure paid off for ya!

That was a one-off last week. I'm back to weighting the games and calling for a Panthers' loss, so I plan on getting crushed this week by you cannibals lol.

They are 4 point dogs and they lose EVERY time I pick them to win.

That's the way I feel about the Cincinnati Bungholes. They've crapped on me all year long.
