Well you won the challenge, and weren't charged a time out, but you still lost the game.
You, and the other... non-winners, are welcome to continue posting.

Sorry, no. Chris Luva Luva went 4-0 on his picks. Plus he was closer on the total points, so even had you picked the Patriots, you would have still lost.

and with just minutes to go in the game Punu throws the red flag with hopes to turn things around before being sent home, but comes up short.
after the game we caught up to Punu in the oh so quite locker room for some post game comments...
Reporter ~ So Punu, are you upset about the officiating?
Punu ~ No, not really, the outcome would have been the same... the refs work hard and do a great job...it was a hard fought battle.... the Regular season was up and down and we had high hopes for the wildcard game, but we look forward to playing CLL and Redeem next year, now get out of my face!

Congrats, Justice Hog. I knew I shouldn't have picked a rookie QB to win a big one. As far as the Bungals, who would've thought Carson would go down after his first pass...??? I never stood a chance...
Congrats, <<bowing out gracefullly>>
Sarcastic Hog...

As much as I tried, I could not will Jon Kitna and the Bengals to victory. Shortly after halftime, "The Redeemed One's" fate in HB I was sealed.
Congratulations are in order for FanFromAnnapolis. I'm rootin' for you to win the whole shabang. See ya next year.

Higher number - lower seed.
But, since you have yours in, here are mine.
Redskins 45
Broncos 41
Colts 56
Chicago 27
It's a little bit ironic that you are going to lose because you picked against the 'Skins.

Oh sure, after you've seen my picks. So much for the home-field advantage.

Sorry - I simply made a mistake
, I mean't to put in the Skins and was lucky that you "pointed" it out to me - thanks again! I also do not think that this affected your selection, at all - all the best!

My picks -with- total scores:
Saturday, January 14
Washington: 41 total scored points (approx. 24 -17 or 21 - 20)
New England: 52 total scored points (approx. 35 - 17 or 28 -24)
Sunday, January 15
Indianapolis: 52 points (approx 31 - 21)
Chicago: 27 total scored points (approx. 17 - 10 or 14 - 13)
Total Points: 172
My cards are on the table. Time for FFA to deliver the goods.

Correct?
I just have to ask, after the Punu incident last week.

That is why I always asked -everybody- to check -my- numbers when it come to wins and losses. It is SO easy to make a mistake keeping track of dferent people. Plus I only have the ability to reach 20 with hand and feet fingers and toes!

It's not so much a math problem, as it is a reading problem. "Combined points total," and not "Final Score Prediction", is what JSPB22 asked for. People are just having trouble following instructions. Hopefully, we've all learned from "The Punu Incident".
Actually, from here on out perhaps we should call the act of submiting the final score prediction instead of the combined points total "pullin a Punu".
