I forgot to get this up and running from last season. I wrote the picks down on a sheet of paper but like an idiot, forgot to post them. I guess you'll just have to take my word for it.

W Indy -6
L Denver -3
W Houston -3
W Pittsburgh -4.5
Tie Washington -3
L Philly (Pick of the Week) -3
W Tennessee +6.5
W New England -6.5
W Minnesota -3
W Carolina +1
W SD -6
W Detroit +2
W Seattle -6
W Dallas -6
Baltimore +2.5
San Fran -3

This week: 11-2-1
Season: 11-2-1
Pick of the Week: 0-1

That's a ridiculous start to the year!

I can't believe I forgot to start this thread as well... doh!

Anyhow, here are the results of my picks from the Bill Simmons Pick 'Em contest on ESPN:


I'm 9-5 right now.


Here's my picks for tonight:

Baltimore + 3.5
San Fran -3.5


My pick of the week was the same as my suicide pick:
Pittsburgh -5 over Cleveland.


This Week: 9-5
Season: 9-5
PotW: 1-0

Stupid Monday Night games...

This Week: 9-7
Season: 9-7
PotW: 1-0

I think you are both lying

CW, where'd you get your line from? I was going off of what Simmons posted on his picks column, so I got the tie with San Fran.

Also, I felt that this week actually was pretty predictable, which is surprising. Detroit, Carolina, and Cincy could've gone either way heading into the game. I lucked out with 2 of 3 correct. Tennessee should've never been getting that many points. I figured the Patriots would go on a killing spree. Really Denver and Philly are the only two teams that didn't pull through the way they should've.

My lines are from Simmons big \"Pick 'Em\" contest/pool thing on ESPN that I joined. I wish I could say I had them -3, but it was -3.5 on the website.

Is everyone welcome to post their own picks each week? I think it would be kind of a fun little contest for all the Twolvesblog!!!

There is a $500 entry fee payable directly to College Wolf.

In lieu of the fee, you can give me 100 consecutive positive Howls.

And then 200 consecutive negative howls after you lose??

Hahaha. No. Jerk.

Yeah I think everyone who wants should post their picks. I think to streamline things we should start the thread on Fridays (Weeks with Thursday games excluded). I think we should use Bill Simmons lines from his weekly picks column as the standard just to keep everything the same for all of us.

That's cool with me. I like this idea. Could be fun.

Should we just start our two records over so that everyone can get in on it together this weekend?
