The results are in! If you want to avoid my commentary, just click over to the current standings page and see how far down the list you are… if you are ignoring my post, hopefully you are towards the bottom.
Here are some high points from this week’s matchups: (1)Favre is old. I know a lot of old people in the pool are pulling for him (he did have a magical ’09) but he’s still old and missed all preseason conditioning; so this year he is old and out of shape. (2)The Bucs won! If we win two more games this season we can shut all those analysts up. (3) 49ers are garbage. (4) Cowboys are overrated and have a lot of money to waste. (5) The only offensive display worse than the 49ers was that of the Jets! Which is funny, because a lot of you jumped on this bandwagon… because their offense was so good last year?? (6) The rain helped mask Philip River’s tears last night… and mine.
Sean Campbell is a pretty dangerous competitor. He creates spreadsheets while sleeping and can solve the Rubik’s cube blindfolded and underwater in less than 20 seconds. He may have finally unlocked the complex pool algorithm judging by his performance this week. He only missed a few games and bet the farm on Baltimore… he even lives in NY for all you Sanchez believers. Nice one!
Surprisingly this week’s loser was not a female. It was Bill Eshenbaugh. All it took was a good wager bet to beat his lowly 24 points. He was big on the Jets and I tried talking some sense into him. Bill likes to play the pool in peaks in troughs and many of us believe it is a marketing scheme to get his name out there even more. However, despite his several low scoring weeks last season, he still managed to finish 4th overall so there might be a method to the madness. Come on Bill… Kim even beat you this week!

I for one cannot condone these sexist remarks and will do my best all season not to trash anyone on the basis of any orientation or origin or political beliefs. That being said, I can tell all that last year, in spite of missing one week and suffering the severe penalty, i actually led or was a strong 2nd place contender until well into December. We will now be forced to consult with Ryan S., Anne, and others and then ignore that advice and pick away!! Dirt Dog
i for one condone any and all sexiest remarks. bring on the smack talk!
i am one week closer have everyone’s money in my hand.
