    Well sheeet, this race is pretty close, now I'm really sorry that I missed the Broncos point.

    I'm not at all sorry about losing the cowgirls point :cool:.

    OK, fess up, how many of you actually thoroughly research the teams before making your picks?

    I don't spend more than 5-7 mins on it, but I do usually double check records, who they've played, and what the line is on a handful of games each week. So if you are asking if I go with more than my initial guy feel, yes. I try to make a semi-informed decision.

    FUCK....I probably would have beat him. I don't have time to be consistent.

    1. @borla likes his computer
    2. He probably doesn't spend as much time on Porn than I had originally thought.
    3. I don't think he's a Steeler's fan. If he is, at least he's not obnoxious about it.

    How is 'likes his computer' a compliment? Judges, can we get a ruling on that? :p

    I like scissors. Would like to know how well I like my scissors. They look good in red.

    Ref ruling - didn't make it through the goal posts. Flubbed the kick.
    @ZombieSquirrel, reset for a punt.

    Actually, I get quite into the details...normally fairly good, but I think I'm ending up 2nd guessing myself or my instincts are off.
    That or I'm up against better players this year.
    It's been a challenging season so far.

    Rogue, have you done a midseason tally? Yes, I could do it myself, but I'd most likely get the math wrong :eek:. Also not so sure I really want to know how far behind I am, a couple of points a week adds up quickly.

    I agree, a lot of great matchups this week.
    That Ravens/Steelers game is going to be great...I want the Ravens, but I'm picking the Steelers...it was a challenge to decide.
    Same thing with Chargers/Dolphins...I want the Chargers to win, but picked Dolphins.
    And I was torn between Arizona/Dallas and Denver/New England.

    I'm going to have to see a shrink this week. :rolleyes:

    Whoa, Ralphie, you have the Texans beating Eagles :eek:? Please share your inside information :D!

    This is a tough one for me. I want the Texans to win as many games as possible, but I also want the Eagles to keep the cowgirls out of the playoffs. It probably won't matter, I don't think that the Texans have improved enough to handle the Eagles.

    Another edit--Hmmm, others have picked the Texans.
