Alast a 4-0 week...I'm finally out of the doldrums.

Way to go!

Last week I was perfect too 0 and 4:rolleyes:

This week I think I'm two and two but would have been 4 and 0 too but for all the last minute heroics going on. What a great weekend of football:thumb:

So far this season I think about 9 teams I've chosen have lost on the last or nearly last play of the game. Talk about nailbiters:cry:

*Checks updated standings.*

DOH! It's only a one win lead. It should be a fun fight to the finish over the last three weeks. Pick well everyone.

Since we are getting down to the wire in this thing, all picks must be PM'ed to me in order for it to count. I know it sounds strange, but it avoids people purposely picking the same teams as someone else to guarentee victory. And I'm not accusing anyone of doing that kinda thing, but just to make sure that we all have a fair shot at winning this thing:thumb:

Thanks for your understanding:wave:

Well since I'm probably the only one that applies to I guess you're directing it at me. I'll settle your concern for you and not submit any further selections.

This concerns everyone and not just you. Yes, you are in first place and have earned that spot by catching up and regaining that spot. The only reason for this is because there still is a chance for everyone to win and if they wanted to, everyone in the top 3 could eliminate everyone else if they purposely selected the same teams. This is not personally directed at you, in fact this was coming no matter who was in first and how many points everyone else was back. This formula will be likely used with the hockey pool at the end of the season when it's close and people want to have a fighting shot.

Could that have been the clincher for yours truly? :boogie:We have a tie.

leaferfan87, Madferret and myself all finish with 49-32 records. I only have two perfect weeks, while Ferret and lf87 both have four. They'll both finish in first. I'm third.

I guess we'll have to use the playoffs to break the tie.

Best football game I've ever seen.

I didn't think they got any more epic than the drive in Calgary.

Then.. it happened again in BC.

So what happens this time? DM shows some real balls, sticks with Ray when everyone and their dog was screaming for Maas - and we win it all. Unbelievable.

For comparison purposes, TSN's football expert, Chris Shultz (http://www.tsn.ca/cfl/schultz/) was 50-34 picking winners this season.

I don't know why we picked two more games than him.
