I feel really bad for you guys that picked Cincy over Cleveland.  Cleveland scoring 51 points is the world's largest fluke.  I picked Denver over Oakland because I thought there was no way Denver loses against the Raiders in Denver, but damn if they didn't try.  Luckily they pulled it out in overtime.

you can... watch the giants lose in miami next week, or try out for the team? I'd suggest trying to play defense for them, you cant give up 80 points in 2 weeks and expect to win. I wouldnt been out this week if I didnt get eliminated this week, I had the bengals over the browns on my GF's game like this at work, shes pissed at me lol, they have double elimination though

Holy cow, no kidding...after watching seattle literally deconstruct in their final - should have been winning - drive only to turn it over and setup AZ's winning field goal, I switched to the raiders / broncos game only to see an almost exact replay  :banghead:

I honestly can't BELIEVE the timeout call that nullified the good fieldgoal kick, to only have the kicker miss the next attempt and give the Broncos the ball back...

INCONCEIVABLE!

Find another forum to act like an ass on.

What did i do wrong exactly here? I pointed out that everyone was making the same old lame picks jumping on the bandwagon and that they should have some balls and actually pick a team that no one else picked, so now i'm being called a sore loser and cannot participate anylonger? I'd like to know what you guys are smoking so i can steer clear of that garbage.

Everyone is making the same easy picks. 3 guys picking the Colts every week is kinda lame. 3 Guys picking the Bengals over the Browns? Come on. 

Once the match up is picked, move on to another team or match up.
 

This is not my party but it seems to be going kinda weak.


Two people picked the Colts so it must not have been that much of an easy one.  And they lost there last year.  And, oh yeah, three guys picking the Bengals is fine.  Unlike the candy ass teams in NY, everyone else has a chance to win every week.  Bucs over Saints, Texans winning at Panthers etc proves that any one can win at any time.

Start your own pool next year, or better yet, start a new one now with your rules.  Quit being a troll in this thread please.

The reason you can't participate any longer is because you failed at the objective of picking a team that could win an NFL game.

I AM a royal ---uvula---, you're not the first to point it out, but frankly, I'm not the one crying sour grapes about the game.  and "for the record" I haven't picked the Colts yet, and even if I did, this week was a wild one and they almost lost.....as did my pick, the broncos.

Consider this... only two people have picked the Patriots who are clearly the best team in the NFL after two games.  As good as the Colts have looked the Pats have been as good so far as any NFL team I've sever seen.

I picked. I took Indy over Tennessee (which was almost a disaster). My pick is up there.

For this week, I'll take Pittsburgh over San Francisco.

Fixed Chris G... I hadn't put ahofle in because he didn't make a valid pick, then edited the post that was already back in the past to fix it.  The timestamp is valid, though, so he's in.

Man, if Buffalo wins, the game will get a whole lot smaller.
