Can we lock em out of the site for the week so he can't make picks? Would be entertaining.

I just want to tell you both good luck, we're all counting on you.

You really need that one or two games where you have a good edge to consistently get 60%+. The difference between going 2/5 or 3/5 is big.

That is true but also if you can manage to get lucky it can be very beneficial as well for example if I make 5 picks that I have no edge for but win them all regardless it will still be very beneficial as those picks will ad up to five wins which is beneficial in the long run.

It comes down to who can consistently do thing that it takes to win for the long run over a sustained period of time over a long timespan.

Is the deadline for sunday games before 1pm if you do not play the TNF one? An email sent made it sound like the deadline for all games was before TNF.

The deadline is five minutes before the first game of the day so Sunday games lock at 12:55.

I led this stupid thing last year until like week 12. Ended up finishing out of the money. Whole lotta games left.

Another deuce, at least I'm consistent.

I went with in supercontest mock
Cin
Pit
Ravens -5.5
Dolphins -6
Philly -5.5
and for the capping contest
Cin
Pit
Rams
Dolphins
Philly
I didn't like the lines in the CBS site for some of the games.
There were reasons why I took those games but the Rams one I just took because I wasn't sure about Cards. As I mentioned 5 games is tough because it isn't hard to only get 2 right. I was leaning Cards but some reasons for Bears took me off. I didn't consider the other games too much because I didn't like Carolina that much, etc. I admit maybe some bad variance but I probably underestimated some of the opposing teams and overrated the ones I lost. Though I didn't think Philly would be near this bad.
Didn't think Raiders would be able to score so much on Ravens as a key reason. Didn't think Jags could keep up with Dolphins.

The key to winning this league is finding hotel emails like the back

you guys are all terrible at this. 5 hotel emails this week. You just have to know where to look. ####### amateur hour.

Back to the drawing board. I did some combination of overestimating and underestimating the Dolphins, Jags, Ravens, Oakland, Philly and Dallas. I didn't couldn't move to the Cards and I didn't want to play a TB team that looked bad in week 1. Looking back if I had to pick, with NO not a good team, laying 10 pts to a team with Winston, Mike Evans, VJ is tough.

Jebus... 5-0 the first week, then 2-3 this week. This was a rough football-related weekend in general

I had
PIT
IND
CAR
PHI
SEA
If Seattle holds on, I will be 60% after 3 weeks. IND had a chance to cover even after going down a lot. Only had 2 out of 5 week 2.

If you look on the CBS site and find an entry called "Fennis", that's me.
