And I hope that if he doesn't, his score isn't -1!

Well, so far, pretty close! I can't believe I used to play (and do fairly well) in a pool that was against the point spread. Of course, that was thirty years ago when I knew something about the players. This Romo guy is certainly no Joe Montana...

[Van Basten II]

Strong start by Edward who was our red latern the last two years

I've tried to copy and paste the reults here but it's obviously not working.

Edward won this pool once a few years back. I once posted the yearly winners. I believe I won twice! But my eye is on Vajjy who clinically picked us apart last year. Noj won once as well, and Van B usually hovers around the top people. SS1 can't be counted out. Couple of rookies playing this year.

[Noj]

Strong start by Edward who was our red lantern the last two years

Ed - 13

Van B - 11

Agg - 11

Conn - 11

Noj - 11

vaj - 10

SS1 - 8

jazzmoose - 6

Marty - 5

Fixed.

Chasing Ed again.

[connoisseur series500]

Thanks Noj!

Just to show what a grand Organissimo tradition this pool represents, here are our past winners:

2005-6 Conn

2006-7 Edward

2007-8 Noj

2008-9 Conn

2009-10 Vajerzy

Past years are no indication of this year....Edward crushed us in week 1.

I'll guarantee this: if I win it all this year- 2nd place will get the jar of honey from my hives- which I'm hoping will win 1st place in the light amber division in the State Fair of Virginia

[connoisseur series500]

Mmmmmmm!

[vajerzy]

Noj and Martin are the ones who haven't picked yet.

Anyone want to still play?? I'll give you the last place wins -1 for your week 1 total. Look for the invite and directions higher up in this thread.

[Jazzmoose]

Wow. I actually picked Detroit? I guess I'll give up and go buy my own jar of honey...

[vajerzy]

I almost picked DET- but I'm an Eagles fan- they should have lost that game.

[Van Basten II]

Still unable to copy paste the results, don't exactly know why, anyway, the highlites of this week were Edward cooling down, Aggie and Conn having a strong week. At the end of two weeks we have a three way tie for the top spot.

[connoisseur series500]

Everybody is in the running. We usually have a different winner each week.

[vajerzy]

Everyone has their picks in- some interesting matchups- NYJ-MIA is a toss-up and OAK-AZ is another.

Jazzmoose- we expect you to run the table this week!

Good luck to everyone-

If Martin doesn't get picks in for this week- I'm deleting him from the pool.

[Jazzmoose]

If Martin doesn't get picks in for this week- I'm deleting him from the pool.

Oh, thanks. Last place here I come! (Though maybe you people will have a little more faith in the Falcons after this!)

Jazzmoose- we expect you to run the table this week!

Well, I scrapped my 'system' and just did a minimum amount of research for this week...looks my system will stay scrapped...

[Van Basten II]

Edward was our top player this week and now is on top of the league, let's congratulate Jazzmoose who delivered his best effort of the year being second ex aequo in the running this week.

Brutal week as SS1 and I topped the group with nine correct picks. I took the honors by being closer on the points, thanks to Miami's special teams play (or lack thereof).

[vajerzy]

Nice job guys!! That was a tough week!

Good job, Noj and SS1. It was a very difficult week. I got smoked. My eyes are on Agg and Ed, who are leading the pack year-to-date.

[Jazzmoose]

Way to go, guys!

[Jazzmoose]

Holy crap; those late games were brutal this week!

[vajerzy]

My upsets didn't pan out.

[Soulstation1]

Damn my picks have sucked so far

[Jazzmoose]

Don't worry; I'm here to make your picks look good!
