Pigskin Pool - Week 17

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Wed Dec 26, 2007 11:00 pm

It's the final week of the NFL season, and we still have an airtight race for the top spot in the pool. The deadline for picking this week is Saturday, since the Thursday games have finally come to an end...

For the default picks this week (Which I'll hopefully remember to actually enter for people who don't pick this time), I decided to do what I did several weeks ago and allow the Bored to choose the default picks, only this time I'm posting this at night to give the night crew first dibs at the games...

Same rules apply as previously, you may choose which team you want to be the default pick for only one game. When a team is chosen, I will highlight that team in green on this post to signify that that game has already been picked. When 16 different BB's have picked each game, the defaults will be entered....

The Week 17 slate of games (Ignore the times, USA Today never bothered to update all the time changes) is below:


Sat Dec 29 - 8:15 New England Patriots at New York Giants (PSM)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Seattle Seahawks at Atlanta Falcons (Tan)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Pittsburgh Steelers at Baltimore Ravens (Pea)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 New Orleans Saints at Chicago Bears
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 San Francisco 49ers at Cleveland Browns
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Detroit Lions at Green Bay Packers
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Jacksonville Jaguars at Houston Texans
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Tennessee Titans at Indianapolis Colts (mrkelley)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Cincinnati Bengals at Miami Dolphins (Skoop)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Buffalo Bills at Philadelphia Eagles (gsabc)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Carolina Panthers at Tampa Bay Buccaneers (Jasper - I'd prefer not to have cats pick, but this has been out there for 24 hours now, and at this rate, the games won't even all be picked by the deadline!)
Sun Dec 30 - 1:00 Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins (Kay)
Sun Dec 30 - 4:15 St. Louis Rams at Arizona Cardinals
Sun Dec 30 - 4:15 Minnesota Vikings at Denver Broncos
Sun Dec 30 - 4:15 San Diego Chargers at Oakland Raiders
Sun Dec 30 - 8:15 Kansas City Chiefs at New York Jets (Snaxx)

Who knows right now if Jason Campbell will play or not, but I'm gonna go with the Redskins anyway.

Day crew?

I'll pick the Titans over the Colts.

I will pick the Seahawks over the amazingly bad Falcons. Hell, I'd probably take the Lamar State College Seahawks over the Falcons and I don't even know if the have a football team...

If cats are allowed to pick, I will choose the Panthers, for obvious reasons.

Since BB request week didn't turn out anywhere near as popular as the first go through, I went ahead and finished the Default pick list by picking the opposite team that I chose for the unpicked games. The default picks have now been entered.

Since there are still 10 players who have not entered picks yet, I am not entering default picks for anyone else this week, and I will not be back online until after the deadline this evening. So if you haven't picked yet, please remember to do so in the next 10 hours or so, or you'll be getting a big fat zero to end the year....
