For the brave few who play each year, and anyone else who'd like to join, I've renewed the group.

The goal: Picking winners of NFL games throughout the season with confidence points for each week. Most points at the end of the year is the wiener winner...

Especially considering I lost my 14 point game.

If the Ravens win, I win the week. If the Colts win I win the week by a tiny bit better margin. :D

Third second place finish in four weeks, and I'm still only a Sassy Squirrel oopsie from being in last place. I must've dug my early hole really deep....

I had a good week, but one of the ones I got right was picking the Colts to upset the Bills...upsetting me in the process. It seemed obvious...an average at best O-line missing a couple of starters, allowing a clear path to Josh Allen, a defense, shaky against elite running backs, up against Jonathan Davis and missing an important piece of the defense...I saw this coming a mile away.

So yeah, I picked the Colts and got it right.


yay.


I feel so dirty.

I face a similar situation when I team I don't like (Steeler, Ravens...) is playing a prime time game. I don't want them to win as a fan , BUT I HAVE 15 POINTS ON THEM...

Dilemmas.
