All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Only three folks picked the 'Hawks thus far?
**GULP**
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
Well, just this last summer my own Colorado Rockies were out by 6 or 7 games with only 15 or so left. I, like almost everyone else, wrote them off, after which they won 20 of 21 games, and went to the World Series, (Can you dig it!!!!!!! The World Series in Colorado, BASEBALL IN COLORADO IN OCTOBER) creating what will forever be known to Rockies fans as Rocktober!!!! *grumbles disparaging remarks about the Redsox under his breath* Point being...ANYTHING can happen. So keep the faith. Having been a Broncos fan my entire life, I still hate the Seahawks from thier old AFC West days. It's proven that the northern cold weather climates are tough places to win, especially during the playoffs, was my point.

I believe there ought to be a Constitutional Amendment outlawing Astroturf and the designated hitter. ~ Crash Davis
LOL, I'm slowly getting over my hatred of the Chargers, Raiders, Chiefs, and Bronco's!!! I was glad to see Elway finally win one...even though we were still in the AFC.
Now, I get to hate the Niners, Rams, and Cardinals.
I was glad to see the Rockies in the Series, btw.
Yeeah, I'm mostly over it, but I seriously hated the Seahawks. It always seemed that EVERY time we played them we lost to them. Whe they left the division I was like YES!!!!!!!

I thought we were doomed, going into a division with the Niners and Rams. I was always a Niner's fan (my NFC team) so that hurt. And my boy Steven Jackson out of Oregon State is the stud RB for the Rams. That sucks for me too!!!
Oh well. All's fair in football, right?
I'm warming up to the Bronco's, since my brother's in Colorado now. I don't think I'll ever warm up to the Raiders, though! Sorry, RF!
The way the top people have picked, the only people who can gain or lose ground towards a 1-3 position are Needful, and Rjeso.
That being the case, we will have 3 games left, and Phoenix will be no worse than second place. It really is a 2 man race for first.
I propose that after this week, those still in the running PM their picks for the 2 Championship games to Needfulkings. This will avoid someone being able to choose based solely on anothers choices, and "fix' their position.
Needful can post the picks when he locks the choices.
Thoughts?
Actually, RF, I was going to be asking your assistance in locking picks on the 20th. I'm leaving for Kauai on the 18th.
I can offer that option when I post the new week on Sunday, if everyone's okay with it. Private picks can be an option, but not necessary.
Also, those who have posted their picks here have until 3:30 tomorrow to make changes.
I can lock picks next Sunday.
The PM was just a thought. Not mandatory, but if anyone was worried.
We will have a better idea after the weekend but here is one way to look at things.
7 games to go. 4 being played this weekend.
Phoenix- Leader Chose all 4 favorites
Chasing Dragons -1 (Identical picks)
Rube-3 (Identical picks)
Randall Flagg -5 (Identical picks)
Steve -5 (Identical picks)
John Blaze -8 (Identical picks)
NeedfulKings -8 (Chose Giants and Seahawks)
Rjeso -8 (Chose Jacksonville)
Yes, in this thread, I speak Eastern Time.
It'll be 12:30 (or so) Home Time!

PICKS ARE LOCKED!!! Good luck everyone!
All that's left of what we were is what we have become.
I agree!!!
It was an exciting 2 minute start to the game!!! I think GB could go all the way at this point.
I am not sure that people are trying to fix their position, or, at least I am not. I just pick who I think is going to win. That being said I sometimes second guess myself when I think an upset might happen, like the Giants today, and just end up picking the favorite. But it is not because everyone else is picking that way.
I like the Packer's chances!
Folks, I'll have the new thread up soon. Thanks!
