14 players so far. I believe the first regular season game is Thursday night. Get your picks locked in prior to the Steelers and Titans game this coming Thursday.
Team Champion Try-Harders is in!
Bang the Chains is in and ready to rock. McManus, is your highest confidence pick Green Bay over Chicago? If not, then you must be slowly turning into a Bears fan :)

I am guessing you have the Bears for 16. You will see the thunder and fury of my picks once they are locked in. Just to give you a little preview of the beatdown you are going to get this year, I have the Titans for 16 and the Raiders for 15.
I hope you have the Titans for 16!!
Team ShowMeYourTDS(.)(.) IS IN... :thumbsup:
19 players to date. All weeks count, so if you plan on getting in do it soon. Just over 24 hours to kickoff. J. Cutler is already doing some trash talking.
WOW!! Check out The Wizard

I am guessing you won't go 14-2 this weekend..... and I won't go 13-3.
Hey JDunk, get back in the game. It is a long season and there are bag weeks for everyone. My pick of the Packers last week was brilliant.
ah, crap. There was something weird going on w/ Yahoo last week, and it refused to register 3 of my picks. I think I had two of them correct, too.
I was doing pretty well but this is a severe blow to my hopes of that $100,000 prize. ;) oh well, ez come, ez go.....

At least it was a bye week with lower scores. I have seen people come back from that.
Philly over OAK as my 2nd highest confidence. Whoops!
Yep, I lost the 13, 12, 9 and 8 this past week....stupid inconsistency of the middle tier teams!
There is a Thursday night game. Make sure to get your picks done.
This is the week I finally pass up Tenny Schimo...Make sure you put a high number on those Bears this week. :-*
pppsssccchhhhh. this is the week I get another win and slide back into the #1 position! Go Cowboys! :naka: :naka:
Gets those picks in before tonights game,and dont forget all you Bears fans to put another high number on your beloved Bears this week. You figure they gotta get a win sometime. :D
Looks like the leader forgot to put his picks in this week...

Don't end up feeling like this. Get your picks in early. The first game of the week starts at 11:30 on Thanksgiving.
back to back high weeks. the rally is on.
No chance for a rally this year Michler unless I pull a Schimo. ;D
:thebirdman:
Only 112pts last week for the current leader? That's pretty weak.
i'm still gaining on him every week. eventually the cream will rise to the top.
Get your picks in, there is another Thursday game.
This is a tough week. I don't feel warm & fuzzy about any of my picks, let alone ranking 'em....

Just last week? ;)

Sometimes it seems like an easy week, and I end up with a nauseous feeling.

Imagine how the Steelers feel.
I had a gut feeling on the Steelers not showing up (throwing in the terrible towel if you will) and only put a confidence of 10 on that game which gives me an advantage on the top 3. I think this is the week I make a big move on the leaders......

Wow, I called that. I nailed every game on Sunday. Just 15 points back of 1st place now....

Only 15 points back now. But in 5th place.
And I've got Washington with confidence 4 while everybody else has NYG. If Washington wins, I'll be just 11 back and still gaining Tom.

Is it panic mode yet? Crazy pick time? Or can you stay the course and pass up 5 other players?
Its been panic mode for Dan since week 1.
if Vikings win tonight, this will be a tight 4 man race to see who wins. #1 will only be 7 points ahead of #4.
Going to be interesting.

Here are the final standing for Pro Football Pickem. I went 14-2 the last week to take the overall lead for the first time. Doug and Dan both were champs for 3 weeks. I think that the Wizard (Tom S) would have finished at or near the top if he would have got his picks in. We will run this next year and have people put up a disc if they are interested in getting in.
wow. had the most games correct with Tom, but lost by 32 points? OUCH!
I'll be back to try next season, I might have 1 disc to lose.

I am pretty sure the Steelers are responsible for you trailing by 32 points. I am
joking.
yea, 16 came on the loss to the Bears, so I would agree 100% the Steelers cost it for me.
We are running a 2010 Pick'em.
