Eesh.....Not a good week. I only took quick glances but it seems 9 is the best score so far this week, tonight and monday nights game not withstanding.

I enjoyed the weekly review Dio, minus your piss poor evaluation of my picks, of course.

Wrong thread, slick. In any case, you may get lucky and beat me as I was not around before the games started to take Welker out of my line up. It's gonna come down to what Witten does for you tonight vs. what Reggie Wayne does for me tomorrow night.

Post by: Diomedes on September 23, 2009, 11:52:05 AM
I might as well post the wrap up here in addition to the Yahoo page.



Week One Wrap Up
Best week: T-Hawk and Munron each managed 14 correct picks. The difference was that T-hawk picked well and Munron got lucky. They each took one underdog. T-hawk went with a team that soundly beat their opponent: New York over Houston. Munron took Denver, who got an exceptionally lucky win over Cincy on a freak play with only seconds remaining.

Worst week: Sassy takes it up the rear for liking Miami, Tamba Bay, and Chicago in addition to other more common wrong picks (Houston, Cincy, Arizona).

Outlier of the week: Phatty was the only person to take Washington over New York, or St. Louis over Seattle. They rewarded him for his support accordingly.
Phreak and Bowzer were the only players to take San Francisco over Arizona. So many gay jokes, so little time.

Groupthink:  We were unanimous as a group on five games this week--six if you count the Pittsburgh vs. Tennessee matchup, for which FK didn't make a pick. In all six games, we picked the winner.
---
Homer picks of the weekrjs, PPinDC, SunMo and I wisely picked against the Eagles, and though we were undeniably right to do so, they let us down.

Homer over under:  Over/under on how many of us pick Philly this week: 3




Week Two Wrap Up
Best weekPPinDC and I each had 11 correct picks.  The difference between us was that PPinDC took the underdog Jets correctly, while missing on the San Fran/Seattle matchup, which I got right.  For having taken more underdogs correctly than I did -- we both had Oakland, New Orleans, Baltimore, NYG -- he clearly gets the nod as this week's winner.

Worst week: Ignoring players who don't bother to try--see below--SunMo and 4th&26 tied for the lousiest score at seven.  Both had Cleveland and Dallas, which hurt them on top of league wide poor performance from week 2 favorites.

Outlier of the week:  Once again, Phatty picks against the grain more than anyone else.  He had some success with it:  he was one of only three to go with the Jets, one of only four to favor Arizona, as well as being one of only two to side with San Fran.  But he also suffered by being the only player to support Detroit, one of two who liked Tampa Bay, one of only three to pick Philly, not to mention the ground lost by taking Cleveland over Denver, one of only four to make that sage call.
Tomahawk gets honorable mention for being the only player to favor Carolina, while also taking unpopular NY Jets and Tampa Bay.

Groupthink:  We were unanimous in our picks on three games this week, getting only one of them right:  Everyone liked Green Bay and Tennessee incorrectly, and we all got the Indy victory correct.

Not even trying to competeReese forgot the NFL was playing games this week and did not make any picks.  Bowzer must have been late coming home from Saturday Night Teabagging; he made picks only for the late games.
----
Homer picks of the week:  I pegged the over under at three for how many of us would take the Eagles over the Saints.  The number who did so:  three.  These homer losers were FK, Phatty, and of course, Phreak

Week 3 Homer Over Under:  Philadelphia vs. Kansas City: 10

Week Three Wrap Up
Best week: With 14 points, Munron takes Best honors for the second time this season, having tied for first in week one with T-hawkMunron's misses this week were popular; like most of us did, he favored the Jets over the Titans, and the Steelers over the Bengals.  Only three players called the former correctly, and only two got the the latter.

Worst week: SunMo and Phatty share the Worst title this week.  It's the second consecutive week SunMo has distinquished himself here. SunMo joined FK as the only two players who liked the Washington taterskins over the obviously superior Detroit Lions, and Phatty was the only person to take the woeful Bucs over the Giants.  For those picks alone you two deserve Worst Week.  FK can have special designation as honorable mention if he feels left out.

Groupthink:  We were unanimous in our picks on five games this week, getting all of them right.  The victors were Green Bay, Philly, Baltimore, New Orleans, and Indy.  By and large, week three was a set of games in which we as a group favored one team heavily, whether we got the pick right or not.  The closest game was Denver vs. Oakland, split 7/5, with the majority favoring underdog Oakland and getting it wrong. For every other game in week three the number of players who dissented from the consensus pick was three or fewer.

Not even trying to compete: Bowzer was out all week hunting Census workers, he should be back soon.

---
We root for laundry: Last week, I put the over/under on picks for Eagles over Chiefes at 10.  All 12 of us took the Eagles.

This week:  over/under on the number of Eagles players who, having a bye and the week off from practice, get themselves arrested: 1

I have no idea how I've maintained a 6 point lead in this league since week 4. I'm chalking it up to indifference.


I'm trying to make my pics now, apparently I've already got the Arizona/Seattle and Atlanta/Carolina games wrong. The NFL is not fixed :paranoid
