I won my real life pool! Yay Vikings!! :D


I understand there aren't games until Sunday this week. I don't have time right now to get the matchups, but if someone can post them soon then I'll make my picks next time I get on and we should be good to go for the final week. :)

And Ryder can post who won last week's too. ;)
It would be awesome if I won that one too. I didn't check how anyone else did though so I don't know.

Indeed... good rule of thumb is to root for the married player who sends pictures of his privates to random sports reporter women. \:D/

Heh, well... his crime isn't nearly to the degree of Tiger Woods, Kobe Bryant, Michael Vick or Tom Brady for that atrocious hair. ;)

Haha, yeah. I always really liked the guy even though I've never been a big fan of whatever team he has been on... shame he is going to have to end his career with his stupidity looming over him. I'm kind of torn if I want him to do well or not now. ;)

Just remember the game where Favre's father died hours before he needed to play on Monday Night Football. Favre was in tears before the game began, but played in honor of his dad anyway. Needless to say, he (and his teammates) played their hearts out, and crushed the Raiders by like 40 points. The incident with the stupid reporter girl was dumb for Favre obviously, but I'm willing to forgive because of stuff like that MNF game. Oh, and his Super Bowl ad 10 years from now was epic. \:D/

This is the last one of the regular season, so 17.
It's strange though, I always thought there were only 16.

I thought it was 16 because I don't recall ever hearing anyone talk about 'Week 17' before (although I certainly could have just forgotten) but also because they’re making a big deal about the idea of an 18 week season, and if we already have 17 I don’t see why that’s such a big thing. It’s just one more :-k

There is 17 weeks but each teams play 16 games because everyone has a bye week (a week they don't play). So there would be 19 weeks but each team would only play 18 games at least that is how I always understood it because they talked about 18 game season not weeks.

Oh oh, that's right.
Thanks :)

Edit:

I sent Ryder a pm and he didn’t respond, so I guess he’s done with this.
But, we still have one week unscored.
So I went and tallied everyone’s picks for Week 17.

Before we get the results, we need to figure out the payment.
I had sent my $5 to Ryder for Week 17. Did everyone else? (This question is directed at the 3 other players who picked Week 17; American Eagle, Stop Wooton' Around, and The Top Crusader)

I'm assuming everyone did, but I wanted to make sure.
So I’ll get the tally when the others respond and then Ryder can pay the winner whenever he gets back. :)

I think so... that was too long ago for me to recall. >_>

I am thinking maybe Ryder and family were about to be moving or something but I could be wrong?
