Apologies for this really bare bones post, but I've been super busy at work and around the house lately, so here goes.
If anyone would like to join in the fun, you are more than welcome. Should you decide to make any picks for the week, simply PM them to me, clearly identifying the game(s) and who you think will win each one. You do not have to pick every game for that particular week, nor do you have to pick games every week. Every Wednesday following a weekend of NFL games I will post my own results as well as everyone else's. I'll also be keeping a running record of my season totals as well as anyone else that should happen to pick games for more than one week. There are no prizes, this is simply for pride and maybe a little bragging rights. If you want to make picks and want to see your name posted here, all you have to do is PM me your winning NFL picks. The only rule is that any games you pick must be PM'd to me before they kickoff.

Yikes, not exactly the best showing for BuskieBoy, Cubtracker, or myself. This should help tighten up the overall standings.

IndianaMom(and Dad) have been brought back down to earth, but still hold a narrow lead over Cubtracker. meatboys holds steady. Tweekfan323 passes me up for 4th place. Our newest competitor, MarWash, settles in at the 6 spot. orangemann327 improves 13 percentage points after a (9-5) week and BuskieBoy slips below Mason-Dixon line.

Broncos Mortal Lock of the Week (6-1) I whiffed on the Saints/Rams game last week, but this week
Steelers over Jets will hold up.
Upset of the Week (2-5) I've pretty much lost all credibility in this category, but I'm going with the
Lions again (Sorry, Fish). They're 4-0 at home and seem to be a bit of an enigma. I think the team that thrashed the Broncos two weeks ago will show up at home and best the Giants. All right that's it for now. No NFL Top Ten this week; it's pretty much Pats/Colts 1, 2, then some combination of the Cowboys/Steelers/Packers rounding out the top 5. After that who knows? I'm headed up to Traverse City for the weekend, so I'll see if I can't snap some pics to spruce up the ol' blog. Take it easy.
