Weekly Update

WOW!!!! IT IS JUST UNBELIEVABLE!!!! A BLOG TWO WEEKS IN A ROW!!!!! TAKE THAT CATHY ROCHE!!!!

OK now that I have that out of my system, on to the updates.

Thursday Challenge: We are coming down to what appears to be the last week in this game. There is no game this Thursday but the game on Thanksgiving evening is Pitt vs. WV. So those of you who are in contention can really spend the necessary time needed to make the right picks. Here are the standings going into the last week.

1. Scott - 72
2. Amy - 71
3. Lin - 70
4. Jay - 67

I put Jay in here since he still has a chance with this game. It is so close, it is anyone's game to win or lose. Good luck to you all on Thanksgiving.

Eliminator: WOW again. Scott and I are still in this thing along with 3,655 others who are still correct with their picks. Each week we make a new record for this group in this game. It is getting more difficult each week though. Jay found this out last week when the Packers lost to the Falcons. Thanks to all of you others who are still slugging it out in this game.

Gridiron Challenge: Most everyone had a good week last week with Lin tops, Me second and Bryan third. This was a tough week since a couple of my horses (by my results you can see just how awesome my stable is) had a bye week. The overall results are:
1. Amy - 1048
2. Scott - 1013
3. Jay - 1006
4. Lin - 1005

Pigskin Pickem: After 10 weeks, (has it been that long?) the group is starting to separate even more. Most everyone is doing well with their picks each week. The experiment, Home Field Advantage, was really strong in the beginning of the season but the last few weeks has had some tough going and is now 10 points behind the leaders. With 7 more weeks to go that is not an insurmountable task. The results are as follows:
1. Lin - 102
2. Me - 97
3. Big Jay - 96
Lin - 96
4. Me - 94
5. Scott - 93
Sue - 93 (my apologies for not recognizing Sue's perfect week in week 7 - Way to Go!!)

Don't forget that we still have a long way to go in this game, 7 weeks. A lot can happen in that time. AND, this is the other money game, so there are prizes to be won. Also, remember that the week after next there will be two games on Thanksgiving day so you will need to make your picks early that week.

Finally, it seems like this is the last week in the college game and Scott has a good lead...But...You never know what might happen. Good luck to everyone.
