That's an interesting pick, especially since they announced you-know-who might not be playing |couch|

But it's in now - can't change it after the fact |thumb

Someone should remind you guys that real football doesn't include picking up the ball and running with it :D I might have stood a chance if we were picking english teams lmao.

Seriously though, Good luck everyone it was fun while it lasted |thumb

Looks like those Crown Royal bags were handy to have last week.

I don't know much about football, but can somebody please tell me why Buffalo are the the underdogs again? |couch|

Yeah, last week was easy, just picked my (original) hometown and hoped for the best. Now I need a new hometown... or maybe places I've lived in some order that applies to these games. Otherwise it's time to dig up a Crown Royal bag.

...I don't know much about football, but can somebody please tell me why Buffalo are the the underdogs again? |couch|Because we loose on Safety's.

Who might not play? They have 2 major players so it must be one of them. Either way they can win without one of them so I'm good. :)

Because we lose on Safety's.

Buffalo playing on the road -3 points
Buffalo lose on safetys -2 points
Buffalo playing in tropical weather -2 points

Miami by 7 :D

Favored team loses at home on Monday night?

Oh well, now y'all know why I don't go to Vegas and gamble. Lady Luck hates my guts.

I would have really liked to see Philly and NE lose. That would have left Sir Moby and me to duke it out. |knockout|

Ha. Isn't that the worst part about losing that game, I mean all he had to do was throw the ball away. Well I was rooting for them, just to slim down the ranks. |tddance|

Made it to week 2, it's all gravy from here on out.

I love the food over here so we do differ.
There are a few things i won't eat, my pet hate being salad, that's rabbit food and i've always hated it... Pretty much anything else works for me though. Give me a huge steak or crab legs and i'm in my element :D

I sent my second week NFL pick in to |greenguy| .. Hope this one pans out ... not gonna use the method suggested by |Jim - Buffalo Bills are not that bad of a team and are from my former home town |bananna|

Wish me luck|roses|

No way I'd touch Miami because Buffalo played well in week 1. Of course I thought Oakland had a chance to win too so what do I know? LOL It was close at half though. :D
