At this rate I'll come out with batter winning % if I don't summit any picks this week

Man, that Jags-Colts game has me on the fence. I picked the Colts but something tells me the Jags just might upset them. If memory serves me, I think the Jags always always play the Colts tough at home.

Hmmm, it does seem that you are stinking the place up there, 1niksder. It couldn't be that you're doing it deliberately to make mediocre competitors like me feel better about themselves, could it? :-k

Never too early to take up your position on the fence. The old "I was wrong, and I knew it all along" approach.

Not everyone can take the "Hey, I am British. What do I know about American football" approach. :wink:

Check your PM box. :wink:

Just messing with ya, dude. Why not check out the Main Hognostications page? It has most, if not ALL, of the answers you are looking for. Plus, RiC posts the deadline every week. You need to get your act in gear, or else you'll end up lower than me.

Only 26 picks in do far... get your picks in by tonight or they won't be entered. The schedule for making selections, was, is and always will be on the main page of the pool section.

Thanks and good luck.

Sssshhhhhhhhh!!! :-$

Please do not wake them up.

We are hoping that HOOKBASSGA misses one week in order to try to come anywhere near under his score. ROTFALMAO

Indeed. I move that if he doesn't identify himself or at least participate in the board, he should be kicked from the contest (so I can be 1st for at least one week! :wink:

)!!!

But at least the battle for second place is ferocious. Eighteen posters are within five picks of second place.

REDEEMEDSKIN · Post by **REDEEMEDSKIN** » Tue Oct 23, 2007 11:41 am

I think HOOKBASSGA is really Brandon Lloyd. No evidence to back that up. Just a hunch.

After all, he DID say he wanted to focus on football this season. Who knew he meant kickin' tail at HOGNOSTICATIONS? :lol:
