Sorry for the delay on my responses. I will be traveling all week, so the board gets a well-deserved break from NNOY.

Here are the records for week 1, I will confirm payments etc later in the week.

Primo 3-0
Gekko 3-0
NNOY 2-1
Big T 2-3
KW3 1-2
KJ DUKE 1-2
Vegas Gamblers 1-2
Wooderson 1-2
SG Hammer 0-3

Not official entries:

JB 3-0
Walla 1-2
Diesel 0-1

Note I am updating this after a serious night of drinking and watching the Bengals bring home my weekend. Head is pounding, so I’ll double check everything later (be sure to post any disagreements with this ASAP.)

Also note that JB DID post his picks at 10:50 so they are not “after the fact” per se. However I agree it’s like playing holdem and skipping all the blinds until you get AA or KK. We’d still love to have you JB, and you proved you can go 3-0, but Primo makes a great point that you would not have joined with an 0-3 record so we can’t give you credit for 3-0.

Remember you can use your 33 picks anytime, so you can still join JB and not be at a disadvantage.

I said that JB claimed to "be in" after the fact, not regarding making his picks. By the way...that money line on Cincy (+240) picked up my NFFC league entry for next season.

Good call Primo on the ML. I like the Cards tonight if you are playing for 2006 as well.

Likewise on the Cards tonight, Nathan. Good luck.

I'll take the Saints (+3). McAllister shows the league why he is the best running back.

2nd pick is the Brownies (+9). Philly D will allow the game to be close.

3rd pick...TB (-7). Bears suck. Case closed.

nnoy...don't let me down. 3-0 my friend. 3-0.

Just seeing if anyone is paying attention. Like I said I went about 5 beers beyond my limit last night. I will edit the standings. Thanks.

Nnoy..are you around? What's up with the picks for this week? Are you going to start a new thread, or should we post here? Let me know my path to 6 and 0.

Sorry if anyone took my "I'm in

" statement as anything but a joke...

Sorry about missing that, JB. I've been under so much stress with my business lately that I can barely see the forest from the trees. My comments were not meant to be derogatory. If you perceived them that way, I apologize. Good luck in the Main Event, and any other leagues that you are in.
