You are redeemed but just BARELY.

The good news is that you did "well" last week. The bad news is that this week though you got 04 - 09

Did you say Dr. Z? I gave you the opposite of Peter King instead of Dr. Z!

I did not look for Dr. Z predictions

Certainly not tops. This is a tough crowd.

You and about everybody else. ONLY ahead of Redeemed and Co.

Not too shabby indeed. Top dog for this week regardless of the outcome of the game tonight. All top posters have picked the Chiefs and you are 2 games ahead of the rest. Congratulations!

Remember, we are keeping scores week in and week out. We will figure everything out in the end.

I'll take it.

Ain't no way that I'll be associated with the sleaze that is Peter King, despite his fluke week of "success".

"The Redeemed One", despite some bad performances in weeks 2 & 3, is 23-23, sitting pretty at .500

Sing with Kenny and me:

Said, if you’re gonna play the game, boy, ya gotta learn to play it right.

You got to know when to hold ’em, know when to fold ’em,

Know when to walk away and know when to run.

You never count your money when you’re sittin’ at the table.

There’ll be time enough for countin’ when the dealin’s done.
