Packers
Cowpies <--- Tougher call than you might think. Oakland is on the rise, and Dallas sucks.
G-strings <--- I've flip-flopped on this game multiple times already. Wish they could have played earlier in the season.
Dolphins
Colts
Bengals
Jets
Falcons
Redskins
Seahawks
Chargers
49ers
Vikings
Cardinals
Ravens
Saints <--- Only because they are at home.

I'm pissed at myself for once again letting others' picks influence my own. I had the Broncos down for the win, and then talked myself out of it because no one else was picking them. :evil:

...um. by MY count, FIVE other hognosticators picked the Broncos to win.

Perhaps you're talking about the "experts" on TV?

Yes, but none that matter. :twisted:

Yes, but none that matter.

and I thought you were doing well this year based on your own selections, now we find that you apparently pick some games based on how other people pick? :shock:

that's an interesting tidbit :twisted:

personally, I just pick the teams I think will win the game :lol:

I've hemmed and hawed about whether to change my Pittsburgh pick. I will stay with them. I need to make up ground.

Picks are officially closed.

Quick question: By any chance, are we going to do, like in year's past, where we drop the worst weekly record for each hognosticator?

I'd like to drop my 0-13 forfeit, as it ruins my chances of catching the leader, who gloats about making picks based on others'. :twisted:

Right! And the only times I haven't done that, I have lost. I wouldn't be in the lead this season, or be the all-time career Hognostications leader if I were simply picking against the other contestants.

No, we will not drop our worst week.

First, you have no chance even if you had that week back. :twisted:

Secondly, the only reason we have dropped a week in the past was because of a foul-up in the software, a week in which there was a tragedy (ST21's murder), or an opening week where the contest was not officially begun, so everyone did not get a fair chance to enter picks. Simply missing a week does not reach the bar for you to get a mulligan. (Just ask SkinsJock about last year's "championship*.") :evil:

* And for the record, I still contend I made my picks week 8 last year. Had we dropped the low week's score, rather than the first week and the week where the software stopped working entirely, victory was mine.

But I'm not bitter. :lol:

oh my - I get to revel in the joy, again - I don't make the rules, I just make my little picks & let someone decide who the winner was each week

the 'trophy' has the right name on it for 2008 :lol:
