Not just pro ball either. Look at the college games. I couldn't watch the end of the Washington game. I guess it is just karma for laughing at WSU getting destroyed by Cal the day before. So much for a undefeated Apple Cup.

So should we be blaming El Niño, Brexit, or... H4xx0Rz???

Got my picks in for this week. Surely, I can get better than 5 right this week...

The last two weeks of more underdogs winning than favorites has been a crazy mess...

On the one hand, the game last night was insane. How many times did they have to run a last and final play? Lost count.

On the other hand, KC WAS SUPPOSED TO WIN, DAMMIT! Looks like Eric Carr is back and ready to QB and that means more mess ahead in picking winners... it's like the teams this year are highly competitive, more so than usual. Just about all the games are coming down to the wire or are massive surprises. So far, Cleveland is the only constant this season.

Here we go with another week of crazy, right after the Jets top the Bills on Thursday...

... just in time for basketball and hockey to fire up.

The results so far from this week are... insane... of the teams that looked like they had a lock on their games, 4 of them totally fell through, in particular the KC Chiefs. I'm glad that the Cowboys beat them, even though I picked KC to win, but the Cowboys weren't *supposed* to be *that* good...

And who knew that the EAGLES would be the team farthest out in front? Not me, man...

Yay Thanksgiving week for being much more predictable in the lineups.

Now to watch out if Garappolo starts for the 49ers... man's got some skills.

Also, Denver should hire Kapernick. They NEED a QB, and they need one NOW.

Fun times last night as the Cowboys beat another team with a losing record.

One day, they'll beat a team with a winning record, just you watch!

thus the problem with DVR's and having multiple season passes, and the ability to record and watch up to two live channels,
thus with 2 shows recording, gives me the ability to not watch the football game. missed it, was provisioning new firewalls anyway, but couldn't watch the game after I was done.  tough game call for me, I don't like either team.  hoped they both lost.

Well, one of them had to win, from the looks of things. From the looks of the lineups this week, I'm expecting more confusion in the wildcard race in the NFC after this week when the top wild card possibilities face up against the biggest gorillas out there. I don't have much hope for Atlanta against Minnesota and a similar lack of hope for Seattle against Philadelphia. Losses for both those teams can help Dallas towards a wild card slot, but can't do anything to help Dallas actually *win* a wild card game.

Dean, you had a good week of picks last week 13/16,  I was trying to make a comeback, picking some upsets, and all I did was get myself upset. I think I fell behind another 6 games. :(
