    Ok...we've got a lot of weirdness this week...
    First...the listing I typically use to post...didn't have the Cardinals/Falcons game...so that isn't included... @POPEYE was the only one that put it down, but he didn't pick the win anyway...so it's moot.
    That...and I forgot my MNF score...fortunately/unfortunately I didn't get the highest count...so another moot point.
    @ZombieSquirrel wasn't able to play this week, but she got some compliments from @Borla ...so she's not too sad...and we have a "sub" or new player in Popeye...who walked in mid-week.

    And now...for the winners.
    We've got a tie-breaker this week between @Borla and @grumpyolddude ...and since the Dolphins & Jets played a lower scoring game...totalling 29...THE grumpyolddude is still the Dude and the winner with the lower MNF score. :cool:
    @ChrisNoyb and myself tied for third... (Geez, did the T-day antics throw me off this week?? :confused:)
    @POPEYE comes to a repectable fourth even after not picking the Thursday 3
    And @ralphie250 comes in following, a bit drowsy after eating the Turkey (and perhaps a bit more...:))

    I'll double-check the next listing for week 14
    And I'll get the next summary up in a bit.

  5. You ain't the only one, brother! But, I'm six behind with four weeks left... eating your dust, just like in FFB. There are a few games for either of us to trip on this week, though.

    My apologies

    Sir, just resubmit or post any changes you want...any following pick or request will supersede the previous one.
    I will account for it.

    Everyone has until the beginning of each game to make any changes.
    Just try to minimize it though, to prevent confusion or mistakes. :)

    Will y'all please stop picking the cowgirls, and change your picks before the game? I don't want them gain any momentum or advantage.

    Thank you.

    Gotcha @Popeye - I hope you enjoy the week. :cool:
    Although you may want to take your caps off...it's like SHOUTING on the Internet. (just a thing, y'know...)
     
  17. Hard to believe I scored the win last week after getting 2/3 of the Turkey Day games wrong! But that MNF game was the real turkey!!

    Three players picked 48 points for this week's MNF. What are the 2nd and 3rd tie breakers, ref?

    Wish I could disagree with @Borla on more than one game.:mad:

    I think I initially stated that it would have to be a real tie...like after NFL overtime if it is still even, since it is rare that everyone picks the same number.
    I don't want an additional criteria to keep track of...at least this late in the season.

    We can make the "winner" since it is only for bragging rights...the one who has won less than the others previously...then that spreads the good feeling and morale. ;)
    It's all about the fun.

    Let the battles happen on the gridiron...they're more fun to watch. (unless you're talking about the @Borla & @ZombieSquirrel rivalry...that's a back & forth of the titans. :D)
