    @perkdog and @thisistheshow, you guys are about make me cry here. I haven't cried since February 7th, 2016!

    Everyone could use a good sports cry once in a while...

    I've gotten better with dealing with the pain over the years, these days when the Panthers lose, I just chew on the sofa.

    I will update stevek's standings tomorrow, It's been a long day of watching football and I'm fading fast. I was never here. This never happened.

    Even going 2-2 I'm happy. I consider NFL games, even just straight up, hard to pick.

    Thank you, it was some good games today. A couple could have gone the other way on one play.

    Wait a minute, I'm having a hard enough time trying to catch Brick without any help from the refs.

    I'll be darned, you're right Darin, I edited Brick's record, it is 16-11. Thank you for catching that. I knew I would eventually screw something up!

  • DarinDarin Posts: 7,080 ✭✭✭✭✭

    DD- thanks. Its not a big deal since I'm in dead last place, but my only goal now
    is to try to catch up to Brick and at least be in a tie for last at the end of the contest. LOL.
    I have such modest goals. :#

  • thisistheshowthisistheshow Posts: 9,386 ✭✭✭✭✭

    This contest is at the half way point and it's tight. Is it too early to start taking some chances on a couple upsets/underdogs? 🤔🤣🤣🤣🤣

  • 2dueces2dueces Posts: 6,449 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I always fade the second half of the season. I just don’t have the stamina I had as a yut.

    I appreciate you noticing that mistake, I definitely want to know when I get something wrong. I'm mad at myself for doing that. I'm going to start triple checking and making sure from here on out, but if it happens again and anyone notices, let me know because I want to make sure everything is accurate and right. Now, if anyone needs me, I'll be beating the crap out of myself!
