Awwww nuts! Totally forgot to make my picks! Thursday game just started. It's 2 minutes in, score still 0-0 so I hope this counts! If not, that's ok.

Indianapolis @ Jacksonville

Rest of the picks later.

[JanetRN]

In light of all thats going on this weekend for me... can I just say I pick all of the visiting teams to finish off my picks? or do I need to go through and list them?

[EyeHeart3D]

For this week's wacky picks, I reflected upon one of my favorite Christmas tunes, the Elvis version of Blue Christmas. I picked the teams with blue (or closest thing to blue) in thier team colors.

Well the only 2 PM games I guessed right were the higher point games :p

And let me just say that I am NOT happy with Mangini right now! Grrrrrrr!!!! Sure it wasn't Brett's best game, but why would you not have your team go for it on 4th & 1/2 a yard on the 2????? And then you get a penalty on a FG attempt & decide to punt instead of rekicking? What???? :confused: :mad:

*sigh*

GO PACK GO!!!!!!

[Dan!]

This is by far the tightest race we have had in our NFL Picks contest. With only one more week of games in the regular season, only 2 points seperate the top 4 players. EyeHeart3D is up with 140, closely followed by DR.SCHWANK and rocingrodgomer with 139 and Les is More with 138.

The weekly winner was rockingrodgomer with 24 and yours truly with 21 (that puts me up by only 2 points over Jason in the moderator duel).

Good luck this week and Merry Christmas!

EyeHeart3D: 140
DR.SCHWANK: 139
rockingrodgomer: 139
Les is More: 138

With me being one of only 3 to pick the Pack to win that game....and then the Bears winning....it's an absolute MIRACLE that I'm on top! Wow!

If my math is right I'd be tied with the Dr. and Rod had I not forgotten to do so.

Grrrr.....

Grrrr.....

Boohoo...need a tissue? ;)

On the positive side, your Notre Dame Fighting Irish finally won a bowl game. Their first bowl win since 1994!

At least one of his football teams remembered how to win! :D :D :eek:
