Week 5

Standings heading into Week 5:

1. Matt- 41
2. Dave- 38
3. Holly- 37
4. Scott-36
4. Jen- 36
6. Ryan- 35
6. John- 35
6. Bill- 35
9. Chris- 34
9. Steph- 34
11. Nancy/Janie- 27
12. Heather- 26

To pick or not to pick.  That is the question.  It apparently has an answer: not to pick.  Heather did not pick for the second straight week, so I'm left to assume she's out for good.  For those who did pick, here's what we got:

All Picked: Titans over Ravens; Panthers over Chiefs; Colts over Texans; Chargers over Dolphins; Giants over Seahawks; Saints over Vikings

CHI @ DET: Dave for the Lions
ATL @ GB: Matt, Dave, Jen and Bill for the Falcons
WAS @ PHI: Ryan and Nancy/Janie for Washington
TB @ DEN: Holly, Scott, Ryan and Bill for the Buccaneers
BUF @ ARZ: Dave, Jen, Bill and Steph for the Cardinals
CIN @ DAL: Bill for the Bengals
NE @ SF: Dave, John, Ryan and Nancy/Janie for the 49ers
PIT @ JAC: Scott, Ryan and Steph for the Steelers

WTF was I thinking??????????? Just because Jax has completely OWNED the Stillers the last several years, and the number of injured players from Picksburgh, and our shitty OC's questionable play calling and failure to make adjustments this year? Yeah, that's pretty much plenty of reasons to think the Stillers will win. AAAAAAARRGH!

And - who'dathunk Buffalo would be 5-0 after their horrible season last year? Apparently me and six other pool members. Arizona? Are you kidding me?????

How in THE HELL did I think Philly would beat the Deadskins, after Snyder's minionms embarrassed the Cowgirls? WTF was I thinking? And WTF were the other eight of you thinking???????? Idiots!!!!

Shout outs go to Indy and Tennessee for saving my bacon. Thanks guys!

Kiss my asses go to the Fudge Packers, the Tuna's Dolphins, and lest we not forget, the Sixty-Niners. You all can blow me.

Gee, if the Aints win tonight, I'll get one more point for the week for a grand total of EIGHT!!! YAY!!!! Only problem is, the rest of you idiots will, too. Freaking great.

I hate this freaking pool.

Oops - that should say "minions"

Too bad you can't edit a comment after it's posted.

Carry on.

Awesome work for an elected official.

Hey, I only beat you by one this week.... which doesn't say much as I have to pick against the foreskins and the cowpukes... so yea that really shouldn't make you feel any better, but, anyway, your rant was great.

You know, every week as I'm making my picks, I think, "This is the week I finally get it right!!!"

Only to have the football gods shit on me once again.

It doesn't help to have to listen to Holly's gloating when she does better than me, you know? I mean, this is the person who picks her teams based on their freaking uniform colors. Come on!!!!!
