    that Colts game was hard to watch. it was the first time all season I saw either Team "live" and the weather was the biggest factor in the game.

    @perkdog And you took the 49ers to win in the contest. Youโ€™re getting like me. Canโ€™t remember who I picked in what contest. Or the handicapper that gives 50% of his clients each team. At least half come back next week.
    There was a twilight zone about a scammer stock picker. Anyone remember that episode?

    Yea I thought it would be close, I thought Indy could cover 3.5, if it was 3 I wouldnโ€™t have touched it.

    Iโ€™m a Twilight Zone fanatic, Iโ€™m drawing a blank on that episode though. Are you sure it wasnโ€™t an Alfred Hitchcock Presents episode?

    Itโ€™s quite possible. The episode in a nut shell. An investor was running a scam throwing darts at the newspaper, charging huge fees to clients for his stock picks.
    All of his victims came forward to press charges or prosecute, except one. They couldnโ€™t find this one client thinking the investor murdered him.
    The last scene they show the guy on the open ocean in his expensive sailboat. Even a broken clock is right twice a day and this dart hit home for him.
    My point was these services that pick winners for you give you a free pick the first week. Say 200 people sign up for the free pick. Bills vs Chiefs.
    He gives 100 the Bills, 100 the Chiefs.
    100 winners and maybe a few losers come back to pay for next weeks pick bills vs Jets
    He charges $250 for this pick.
    60 Bills, 60 Jets.
    $250 for next and so on.
    By week 6 or 7 he charges $500 for the lock of the centuryโ€™.
    The betting version of the Ponzi scheme.
    Heโ€™s always right for someone.

    Iโ€™m well aware of how those sites work.

    Hence the reason Iโ€™ve not once ever paid a penny for any of that nonsense.

    As I age unfortunately I canโ€™t remember what I did when I did it because I donโ€™t remember what I did. I picked Arizona in this contest. Thought I took Green Bay because I put the house on Green Bay and the unders last night. I thought both were a lock especially the unders at 50.5 and 56.5 in a huge teaser with the Packers.
    The betting public was heavy on the overs last night. Now if I was a conspiracy theorist when they took away Jones TD without a clue to where the ball was Iโ€™d scream rigged. Then of course the weird play to end the game saved me again. Hinkey. But sometimes youโ€™re on the side of the luck, rigged whatever. Thanks you New York.

    Bob Eubanks here.

    yesterday's games taught us that there are no sure things in the NFL. so naturally i'm going to give everyone credit for a KC win before the game is even played this evening. reason i'm doing that is because a) they were a unanimous selection, and b) i want to update the standings sooner rather than later. if the Chiefs' issues are much larger than anyone could have ever imagined and they lay an egg at home to the Giants tonight, i'll adjust each of the season records by 1 game.

    was a wild week -- some you took it on the chin, but a few of you did quite well. double d still in the lead, but lots of movement underneath him.
