      DVF Pool week 16

      josie is in the lead with 10 correct with the MNF game and the Tuesday night rescheduled Eagles - Vikings game. Everybody picked Philly and Atlanta except Kabu with 9 correct, who picked NO so we have a potential tie between josie and Kabu, if so we go to the tie breakers. Good Luck josie and Kabu!!!

      magnum mac will get the low weekly score -2 again, for week 16

      still have 8 different winners in 16 weeks

      uufta still at the top widening his lead to a 4 point lead with 1 week to go

      Back to a normal football week for week 17, no Thursday night game. Get those picks in on time!!!

      Good Luck to all!!!

        I screwed up last 2 weeks!

        Thnx for the posting of the contenders/losers for the NFL and this week's winners/potential winners etc... JM. I got caught up w/all this Jolly/Holly stuff and competely 4got to make my picks. It was too late 4 last week, and completely forgot this last Thursday until Friday morning reading the sporting news.

        I'll still tweek it out through the end. Playoffs look crazy, and the standings for some teams still alive are reminding me of the National Leauge West in Baseball where a losing record can still clinch/win a division.

        Happy Newe Year to all!

          The Vikes did a job on the Eagles last night and it looks like they got a QB in Webb.

          The Eagles had a shot at a bye and blew it. Now they will play 3 games in 12 days. Reid should rest the starters in the Dallas game Sunday and get ready for the playoffs.

          to Kabu who wins week 16 by having NO, the correct team in the tie breaker over josie who had ATL. Kabu had 10 correct and 1 point for the weekly win for a total of 11 points for week 16

          dr/magnum mac gets the low weekly score -2 , 5-2=3 points for week 16

          still have 8 different winners in 16 weeks

          uufta still at the top with his 4 point lead with 1 week to go

          Back to a normal football week for week 17, no Thursday night game. Get those picks in on time!!!

          Good Luck to all!!! Happy New Year!!!!

            Congrats!!! to Josie and Kabu

            Sorry John your Iggles should have played on Sunday, would have slowed down all the big guys
            And you can blame the oddsmakers for pi$$ing off the Vikes, that spread was all they could talk about on the home front, Carolina would have gotten more respect..

              The Vikes fans mighta wanna ask the oddsmakers to make the Vikes big underdogs all the time, to keep them motivated

              Even the Governor of PA, Ed Rendell, an Eagles season ticket holder for a long time, says we shoulda played on Sunday. He says were becoming a nation of wusses LOL. They coulda even done 2 MNF games like they did recently but nooooooooo, first Tuesday night game since 1946

              The Iggles had a bad game and the Vikes played good. Not too bad the Iggles got a loss outta the way, the woulda had to win out and get some help to get the bye. They are locked in at the #3 seed now and another loss this Sunday wouldn't be bad either, rest the starters for the playoffs, and who knows maybe win 4 straight.

              Either way whatever happens the rest of the way, with every thing going on, the Iggles have given us a great season and who knows maybe a Super one.

              I'm hoping for a crazy weekend of football so i can catch up to u in the pool.

              Good Luck to all!!!

                    Ok so I missed this last regular week. I just posted this coming week's picks so I'm good.

                    JM so you're going to post the rules for the playoffs in Trash Talk only, or here as well?

                    Odrama calling the Eagles is all I needed to start seeing Philly win the SB! It's been pointing that way for a couple of weeks now, especially after the G-Men gave them that game. Too much $$$ involved, and in Vick's case he owes too much as well, so a SB win just might help a lil towards his debt. Let's see if I hit this oth again.

                      Here are the additional tie breakers we are going to use.

                      from http://www.footballlocks.com/nfl_odds.shtml @ 1:12am 1-3-11

                      Copy and paste and then enter the scores and pick/enter Over Or Under and Yes No and post them here. I sent an email to Mike L and Mike DVf (don't think Mike DVF is a member here and Mike L can't get here) and when I get their reply I'll post them here. OP needs html coding to format posts, so it is easier to do here and in email.

                          JM which spread in red in what pick sheet? The OP spread? So if it says -10 on the OP site then for example I would say yes NO will get at least 10 points in the Game correct? I'm a lil knew to this part. Thnx.

                          Lol... So what's your total score for the Eagles' Game JM?

                                Tammie wins wk17 - uufta wins the regular season again

                                Thought I posted this here but I guess I didn't

                                to Tammie who wins week 17 by having TB, the previous game listed correct team in the tie breaker over uufta and football freak who had NO. None of the 3 tied had the correct team SEA everybody picked STL in the normal tie breaker game. All 3 had SF, PHI and NYJ. Tammie had 12 correct and 1 point for the weekly win for a total of 13 points for week 17


                                to uufta who kicked butt and won the regular season pool again. He had the most points and the highest percentage of correct picks and 3 weekly wins


                                Now it's on to the playoffs!!! I'll post the games for total. home and away scores, to enter the scores for the games not listed as the tie breaker @ OP, and the Over and Under and will the favorite beat the spread here for the WC weekend and other playoff weekends as they come up. The SB 22 proposition bets will also be here. I'll send emails to Mike L and Mike DVF and then post their picks here when I get them.

                                Good Luck to all!!!

                                Lol... So what's your total score for the Eagles' Game JM?
                                Dr - the spreads are posted on the pick sheet @ OP in red with the favorite team. for example NO is -10.5 which means they are a 10.5 point favorite which means they would have to beat Seattle by 10.5 points.

                                The Eagles game is the tie breaker game on OP and the total score, away and home team scores are entered on the pick sheet @ OP
