    Your response reads like I was asking for more:D
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Too easy anymore...

    That Falcons game was awesome!!! I wound up watching more of it than I did the NASCAR race!

    I also think it was the only game I picked right.

    I just suck at picking. I watch every weekend but I never watch the talk shows so I never know whats going on. But today had quite a few upsets. Tampa and Green Bay to name a few.

    Looks like the upsets got everybody this week!

    Some bizarre lines this week. The Broncos favored over the COLTS? The 1-5 Browns favored over the 4-2 Jets?

    I have no idea how well I'm doing, I just filled out the whole year at week 1 without the lines and am going with that. The more thinking you do, the worse it gets...

    I missed another friggin week, why can't I remember to get my picks in? That's three weeks I'm a ZERO. 20 off the leader. Oh well, maybe a comeback is in order.

    Some of you folks are pretty amazing with these picks. It's been such a strange year for gambling in the NFL this season, I'm amazed anyone gets any right.

    Or at least that's what I'm telling myself.

    I pick ahead for 2 or 3 weeks just in case I forget. Then you can always go back and modify your picks ;)

    Lines are up gents.... have at it.

    The Steelers are favored by 3 over the Donks -- talk amongst yourselves.

    Agreed... and I cast my vote accordingly.

    The only sense I can make of the Pitt-Denver line is that oddsmakers cannot possibly imagine a world where the Steelers (nay, Super Bowl champs) are 2-6.
