I'm with you know. A "W" is a "W" that is for sure and I don't care how it happens.

My picks for that pool are:

+10.5 Auburn vs. South Carolina
-2.5 A&M vs. Arkansas

STL/WAS (NFL) - Under 42.5
MIN over KC -1.5
MIN/KC - Over 39.5

Good call Eric on PSU.

Also damn Virginia ran over GT.

Well I'm going to go to 3-1 (damn GT) .... as the Bills and Giants are 24-24, FG will put at 51 (unless they tie :D)

My last game is overs and DAL/NE this afternoon.

And Dallas/NE was a big under. Hopefully you don't feel as bad now, JB.

I went a pedestrian 8-4 in my bar picks and, unbelievably, I still have a shot to win. It's a slim chance though. There are 6 people tied at 8-4 so it comes down to the MNF total. I picked 43, but someone has 42 and someone has 44. The total has to be exactly 43 for me to win (not fucking likely), there are going to be some angry people if it is 43. :D

I lost yesterday with Detroit, Buffalo, Washington, and New Orleans.

3-2 still works for the overall pool. I'll take it. I'm 19-11 on the season (I somehow forgot to put in a pick 5 in week 2 :smh:) and 6 games out of first.

http://Sportsbook.com says it has a bettor that took 49ers to win title before the season. Bet $700 at 200/1, would win $140K.

That guy has to be excited, but I say he'll be out $700 at the end of the year.

Yeah even if you have a first round bye, it's still gonna be a crapshoot to that point.

Yeah. I just can't imagine Alex Smith and the 49ers winning the Super Bowl this year.

No me either, even if they get Brandon Lloyd. Though Smith is finally coming around.

I think they've just been lucky. They'll fall apart as the season goes on.

He's going to the Rams so that shoots that down - JasonLaCanfora: Brandon Lloyd is being dealt to the Rams. More to come on NFL.com and NFL Network

Also just saw the Raiders may try and get Carson Palmer. I kind of forgot about him. That would be an interesting move

6th rounder. Turns into a 5th rounder if Lloyd catches 30 more passes this season.

I heard this morning that the Raiders are trying to get Orton from the Broncos now.

Holy shit!!! According to Darren Rovell, a dude hit a 15-team parlay. $5 to win $100k.
