Most of us finally got a wager game correct, but who could have predicted the beat down that Vick unleashed last night (think there might be a couple puns in that sentence). What didn’t help so much was that the once predictable Cowboys might throw a monkey wrench into the equation again. Pretty surprising that they instantly look like a new team in less than a week of coaching changes… I wonder if this will happen in Minnesota too?
I debated about naming this post ‘The Fall of Campbell’ but figured I’d err on the positive. I’ll try to describe what happened this week using the depiction to the left… this one’s for you Kim, who has been silenced this season by her own crappy performance. Campbell (represented by the lion as the King of the Pool thus far) was comfortably cruising along in 1st with few worries. He snoozed right through Thursday night, forgot to submit his picks on time and had to take a -14 for that game in addition to not posting his typically Vegas tromping selections. Sampson (represented by the burly man whose biceps are a few inches smaller than mine) took advantage of Campbell’s lax effort and pulled a sneak attack from Campbell’s rear (figuratively). It’s shaping up to be another epic pool finale!
We will be having Thursday night games for a while. If you didn’t gather the moral of the story… the best way to protect your rear is to stay on top. Picks and due dates are typically posted on Tuesday mornings so no excuses. Also, Week 12 will be the beginning of the Hot Tub, so start finalizing your decision and saving for your $5 investment. Good luck!
