STUN Panel NFL Picks

tumble... tumble...






tumble....

oh well. :)

Week Sixteen results are up and it's coming down to the wire!!

Drake won the only disagreement he and I had this week so he was able to narrow the deficit between us to one game with one week to go. But we also have Max breathing down our necks as well, he is only one game behind Drake and thus, only two behind me.

Then only two games behind Max are Simmons and Promotions with identical 150-90 records. Greg's gamble to make up ground did not work out so his is in 6th place, three games behind Simmons and Promotions. And Who Dey, who had the best record this week at 13-3, is unfortunately still in last place. Who Dey's goal for the last week of the season should be to try and avoid 100 losses on the season, she had 98 so far.

One week to go and it is still anyone's game. Can I hang on to my regular season title or will another member of the panel take it from me? Should be fun.

Gee babe, no pressure!

My gamble did not work, but I'd like to point out that St. Louis kept it very close into the 4th quarter, Carolina was close, Philly did win, Arizona had to kick a late FG to tie and then one to win in OT, and the Jets only lost by 4. So they were pretty decent gambles.

Probably just going to pick who I really think will win this week. :-)

Week Seventeen's picks are up and after analyzing everyone's picks, it's a two man race between myself and Drake for the regular season crown.

Simmons and Promotions are four games back. But Simmons and I only have three disagreements and Promotions and I only have one, so they won't catch me.

Max is two games back and he and I have two disagreements, so the best he can do is catch me, not pass me.

Drake is only one game back and he and I have FOUR disagreements. The only trick for Drake is, he has to win 3 out of the 4 to gain the two games he needs in order to beat me.

So how will it all go down?, I can't wait to find out. Good luck everyone, I hope you all fail miserably so I can retain my regular season crown!!

And in case we don't talk....

Happy New Year everyone!!

Week Seventeen results are up and......

I AM STILL THE CHAMP!!!!

HIP HIP HOORAY!!!

Anyway,

Everybody on the panel had a great week, winning records all around. I was able to hold off Max and Drake with our disagreements and hang onto my lead. I win the regular season crown by two games over Max and Drake who tied for second. Simmons finishes in third, five games out of first. He is followed by Promotions, Greg and Who Dey.

And Isa, even though you finished at the bottom of the standings, take a look at it this way......your finishing record, 152-104, is FORTY-EIGHT games over .500!! Not too shabby.

And besides, you can redeem yourself in the playoff pool and make fools of us all.

The regular season was a blast, thanks to everyone for taking part, but I still got you all for the playoffs, so you're not done answering to me yet.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! YOU'RE ALL IN ME POWER!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!



*Ahem* Sorry.

In other STUN Panel news, we will have a new Panel member for the playoffs (that is aside from Max and Who Dey being on the page at the same time this time around), Sarah Webster from our Cardiac Cats podcast will be taking part in the playoff pick 'em/confidence pool to round the panel out at eight members.

So gear up for the playoffs and enjoy what's left of the greatest sport on earth before we all start having our withdrawal pains.

Remember, get those confidence rankings in ASAP, especially now that all the teams have been decided.

Good luck in the playoffs everyone and Happy New Year!!

I'm pretty damn happy with tying for second despite watching about 2 hours of football this year. Well done, Larry.

How does Max have one game less predicted and whodey two less?

Because I screwed up when making the standings graphic, that's how.

DUH!!

EDIT: I fixed it.
