Alright party people, the moment has arrived:
Welcome to week 7 of the Football Pick ‘Em!
Really the only comments before Kickoff tonight center around the tremendous support for the pool.
First off, let me publicly thank Jeremy C for pointing out that the first sheet I distributed (offline) was incorrect – great save Jeremy!
I would also like to thank Nick B & Aaron P for mentioning the same during the buildup to Week 6 – gentlemen, I thank you as well. I would not have gotten it right without your input.
Which leads me to this: I want to thank everyone involved with the Pick ‘Em. I truly appreciate all of our regular players, our occasional players, the new jacks and–of course–our past champions.
Speaking for myself, I have really been enjoying myself in our pool. We’ve got a great group of people & the competition has been really strong.
The added layer of tracking games Won vs what games are needed to catch the leaders has been truly entertaining. Plus, people have been really good sports about everything, considering there’s money involved.
This couldn’t have gone any better.
Thank you. I really do appreciate everyone for making this happen.
Let’s have a great second half to the season!
On to the field.
So this week we’ve got 44 players (as well as some new faces) for a pot of $220
Pot’s right.
(for you new guys, once the “pot’s right” announcement is made, the prize pool money is guaranteed.)
And here is this week’s field:
If it works better for you, this file can be downloaded to your device for your convenience. Otherwise check back as the games are played to see where you stand. The sheet will be updated to reflect the latest results.
This will be the routine for the season.
for the week
- the pot is $220
- there are 44 players
- there are no unanimous picks this week (Yes, even the New York Jets were picked).
- there are two underdog picks this week: Dawson likes Houston at home to beat Green Bay & Desiree is taking Denver to prevail over visiting Kansas City. Good luck to both players!
- the reining Champ is Charlie C, our first repeat Winner. He smoked the field and cruised to the Win on Monday Night. Fucking Charlie. Are any of y’all gonna beat this guy?
- Oh yeah: there will be action in The Playoffs – more on that in the coming weeks
That’s all until the Thursday Night Update after tonight’s ballgame.
Enjoy the game people. And Good Luck.
