I've decided to go with the team that IMO has the best chance of winning. I'm not sure the Giants will knock off the Eagles. In fact, if I had the Eagles I would probably pick them. But I don't, and that leaves the Chargers who are banged up and going against the "Steel Curtain". So, I have to go with the Giants. :( So unless D.J. changes his pick, we will be "co-champs". I really wanted to represent the forum with the win, but Nemo got it in the first half for us so I think a tie for first in the second part (after 12 or so weeks and some really good competition) is not so bad...especially as we will win the group picks
A tie is like [strike]kissing your sister.[/strike] A tie is like [strike]entering playoffs with Flip coaching.[/strike] A tie is like [strike]having Hermann as your backup 3.[/strike] If I were you, I'd go for the win. Take the Bolts. I've picked them for this week. Remember...No guts, no glory. A tie is like [strike]getting 10 playoff wins in the postseason.[/strike] I took all home teams last week, and have two away teams this week. I'm going for the INDIVIDUAL award now. Cannot get it unless I buck the trends. No guts...No Glory.
Tomlinson may not even play guys and even WITH him the Chargers are underdogs by like 5 or so points. If I go with the Bolts, my chances are slim and none. No use going Kamikaze.
I agree...take the tie. Roscoe won't think any less of you than he already does :D Besides...who knows? djzielin could switch to the Eagles to avoid the tie...they have a far better shot at winning than the Bolts.
Sproles has had 220 rushing yards the last two games. He had 338 all-purpose yards (rushing, recieving, return- yardage) against the Colts . That is 2nd all-time for a playoff game.. He's the hot hand right now. Also, I would take Rivers over Rothlisberger now. Big Ben will manage the game. Rivers will play to WIN. 5 points margin is given for the Home Game. On a neutral field, it's an even match. Your logic is sound, if you want to play it safe.
Not me. Ravens, Cardinals, Eagles and Steelers. Except in Survivor where I took the Giants since I can't take the Eagles.
I am very happy that they Giants lost. Giants fans are the worst in professional sports. It is a good day to be a non-Giants fan, I am going to have a wonderful time at work tomorrow. My family is not very happy but so what. No one wants to eat dinner. Okay with me. Now if the steelers lose I might just have to make another thanksgiving dinner.
