While a couple of guys had a good week, overall we were pretty darn lousy! We had 39 players this week and as a group we were correct on 270 out of 546 picks for a horrifyingly pathetic .495 "winning" percentage.

Again, the tiebreak played a role since we had three guys wrestling for the crown. The Raiders won by 27 points. * indicates those few who picked Titans. So lets get to the results.

THIS WEEK'S CHAMPION

BigBucBoy 10-4 .714 Way to go, B cubed!!! Picked the Raiders by 13, close enough to claim victory.

Next week's game (which will hopefully be MUCH better) and season to date results will come later.

Boooooo!!!! Hiss! Hiss!

Not that it was really that important to me.

With Joe on the bottom at least I know I'll have a soft landing when I fall.

Spread 'em Joe, here I come.

I'm glad I don't do this for a living.

Is there a booby prize this year please?

Damn those Ravens. Damn them! Well, I'm Moving On Up! Not a bad revovery after a pitiful, and I mean, pitiful Week 2 performance. Now, if I can only keep it...up.

Promises, promises!

I can hardly believe how poorly I'm doing--and I was regular season co-champion last year! I'm the St. Louis Rams of the Pick'em game!!!!!

I have a question. Why did so many people do badly this week? It's not just here. I'm in several pick 'em games and generally, a lot of people did badly.

There was one game that I'd consider a jaw dropping upset and that Detroit over New Orleans. I don't think any of the other games could be considered shocking, maybe San Diego over New England or Baltimore over Denver but I could see picking Baltimore and San Diego. I could have made an argument (feeble though it would have been) that Baltimore and San Diego would win. Of course I didn't have them either. I remember one week last season the winner here had 8 correct picks. That was a brutal week. This week didn't feel like that week.

Teams that are undeafeated in the season usually have as much chance of losing a game a team that is winless team winning a game. It seems like everytime a team is ranked at the bottom of a power poll they go on to win a game the next week. First Detroit beating New Orleans then Baltimore beating the Denver. It's only a matter of time that the Chargers fall. Could this be the week?
