Does it bring you down to earth, just a little bit, knowing only 16% of the people in the nation picked Houston to win?
Nope! They are not the smart choice as of now.
That said, I picked 'em.

So, I was talking to this guy I work with in Culver City, CA. And he's talking about all the great games this weekend and how picking the games is kinda tough. And he listed a couple of the tough games and I mentioned the Colts @ Texans. And he said to me, "Dude. I hate to break it to you but that game's really easy to call. No way in hell the Texans win."
And so I said, "Dude. Texans win that game. Period."
And he told me I was a homer and that he'd buy me a case of Diet Dr. Pepper if the Texans win. So I told him, "Cool, thanks for the case, I appreciate it."
He laughed.
And I asked so what would you have wanted in the remote outside chance that the Colts were able to find a way to win. And he said that the event of the Colts losing was so remote that he'd feel like he was stealing from me if I had to give him anything. So he just wants me to call and say I was wrong.
I can't wait to get a case of DDP from that smug Raider fan.
Audrey Lynn??
Since you're wondering who that is, it's my wife.
Cool... she knows more football than you... I don't know if I'd be able to handle that.
So it's obvious I don't know what I'm talking about. The only people who know less than me, are pbatt488, Texanmojo, kiwitexan, & Dwade.

show up next week guys, I've got some rep for the top 10 after the first Qtr of the season is over.
Ok... I went 6-7 so far this week, making my overall record 32-29. How am I to guess Jacksonville hits a 59 yarder to beat the Colts, Cleveland finally gets a win over the Bengals, or anybody was going to win the Seattle/St Louis game?
Games I was wrong:
Baltimore @ Pittsburgh
Seattle @ St Louis
Indy @ Jacksonville
Denver @ Tennessee
Washington @ Philadelphia
Cincinnati @ Cleveland
Chicago @ New York

Does anybody else see the Buffalo game possibly being a trap game for the Jaguars? Coming off a pretty good win against Indy & having Tennessee next week, could they be overlooking this game?
when do they update the point totals? I got 9 right after the MNF game but yahoo is only giving me credit for 8. My score is posted at 8-5 (only 13 gmaes) and should be 9-5 (14 games).
What gives?

Speedy shot an e-mail my way and hooked me up for Hog Skin Picks pick 'em league again. In this league last year I finished in 7th out of 12. I need redemption...lol.
There was also a TexansTalk pick 'em and survivor league last year and I was wondering if those will be resurrected (?).
Damn it's glad the lockout is over.![]()
