Pigskin Pick em Week 12

Post by raffensg64 » Mon Nov 19, 2007 11:46 pm

Week 11 saw gpc, Basshunter06 and fishinislife go into the Monday night tiebreaker. In the end, Basshunter06 notched his first victory of the season...good job! I see that our "pool" is getting larger...ten guys gave it a whirl this time around. Come on gents, give it a whirl...this one's free!
Here's the standings through Week 11:
Raff (2) Weeks 5 & 6
Shawn (2) Weeks 4 & 9
fishinislife (1) Week 3
lskiles (1) Week 2
ipodrodder (1) Week 8
gpc (1) Week 7...and an honorable mention for making it to a few MNF tiebreakers!
Cavdad45 (1) Week 10
Basshunter06 (1) Week 11

Ten games are on slate for Week 12 (11 counting the tiebreaker game), some good and some bad. Here they are! Absent are games like Cowboys @ Jets and Eagles @ Pats......I've struggled as of late but even I'd get those right!

Seahawks @ Rams
49ers @ Cardinals
Titans @ Bengals
Packers @ Lions
Saints @ Panthers
Texans @ Browns
Raiders @ Chiefs
Redskins @ Bucs
Broncos @ Bears
Ravens @ Chargers
Monday Night: Dolphins @ Steelers
Ravens @ Chargers

What are the rules for participation? If you have them posted somewhere, toss out a linky and I'll give them a read. Thanks!

No rules involved.....simply pick the team that you believe will win each game, with the exception of the Monday night game, where you pick/guess the TOTAL SCORE between the opponents. The goal is to correctly pick as many games as possible. Come Sunday evening, I conduct a "roll-up" to determine who our winner is. If we have two or more guys who are tied, it'll go to the Monday Night Football game for the tiebreaker. In this Monday game the intent is that you pick TOTAL SCORE.....whoever picks closest to the total is our weekly winner.

You can also refer back to previous week Pigskin pick ems to see how we play. It's very simple, and, unlike conventional football pools, we don't win money, just bragging rights and warm fuzzy feelings!

Too easy! Wasn't sure exactly what the scoop was...thought about throwing out my picks a while back...but didn't want to jump in at mid-season if there was something going on other than what you stated.

My Picks:
Seahawks
Cardinals
Titans
Panthers
Browns
Chiefs
Bucs
Broncos
Chargers
Patriots
Giants

Thanksgiving Day Games:
Packers
Colts
Cowboys

MNF:
Even though Dan Marino, Don Shula, and Ricky Williams sneaks into the Steelers locker room before the game, and pass around a 4 foot graphix bong and nutrisystem...Steelers still win. 38 - 7 total 45

Chad, we always leave off a couple games. Last week we picked only like nine or ten games.

Oh, ok...

Just games picked at random by participants or a predetermined number of games picked?

I have no idea. I think it has something to do with how real football pools are made. Like these are the games with the most bets made on them or something. Or maybe it leaves out the obvious ones. (Dolphins at Pats anyone?)

Seahawks @ Rams...Seahawks
49ers @ Cardinals...Cardinals, no doubt!
Titans @ Bengals...Titans
Packers @ Lions...Disqualified to pick, it is too late
Saints @ Panthers...Saints
Texans @ Browns...I like the Browns
Raiders @ Chiefs...Dispite the nay-sayers the Raiders will own the Cheeps
Redskins @ Bucs...Tampa Bay, all the way
Broncos @ Bears...Broncos have Bear Stew for lunch
Ravens @ Chargers...LaDainian has peaked, The Ravens will win

My God, man!! Anyone see that one coming!?! :-&

Did anyone watch the game? Did both teams suck as bad as it seems, or was the weather just that bad? Sucks for the Dolphins to get blown out by just three points!! :clown:
