I wonder if anyone here is aware that there are tons of BLM types also boycotting the NFL, in protest of our friend Colon Krapernick not having a roster spot. Such irony. 😅

The moment has arrived, the votes have been counted.



First, though with a limited sample size of 3 weeks, our best winning % belongs to Bagster. For this and having a cool as hell logo we award him the title of Mr. Congeniality!




And now to crown our champion. Last year it was Big by 3 over Pete. This year Big and I tied for 2nd place. Our winner by a margin of ONE GAME is none another than.....




RO_Dreaming


Congratulations!On to the playoff picks contest!

Though I now know how Al Gore felt in 2001, forced to count himself out....I concede. Big, if you want a recount file a petition with the Supreme Court of Pete.

The playoffs have arrived! Time to get my picks in. Here we go.

SATURDAY, JAN 5, 2019 (All Times Eastern)

AFC: #6 Indianapolis Colts at #3 Houston Texans 4:35 pm on ESPN/ABC, NRG Stadium The Colts just beat the Texans, in Houston, four weeks ago. Now a rematch... Andrew Luck and Company have been playing well, but I like this as a sort of coming out party for Deshaun Watson. Texans win a close one. Texans.

NFC: #5 Seattle Seahawks at #4 Dallas Cowboys 8:15 pm on FOX, AT&T Stadium The Seahawks are better than their record, and the Cowboys are not as good as theirs. And I like Russell Wilson in a must-win situation more than I fear Dak Prescott,. In a road upset... Seahawks.

SUNDAY, JAN 6, 2019

AFC: #5 Los Angeles Chargers at #4 Baltimore Ravens 1:05 pm on CBS, M&T Bank Stadium Yes I know the Ravens just beat the Chargers two weeks ago and are on a 6 - 1 roll. But.... Philip Rivers and the Chargers are not going to make the mistakes the Browns did last week against the Blackbirds. The Ravens will keep it close but that will not be enough. Chargers.

NFC: #6 Philadelphia Eagles at #3 Chicago Bears 4:40 pm on NBC, Soldier Field Does Nick Foles have more magic left?! I guess we'll see. The Bears do have that monster defense but.. Trubisky? Really? How are they going to score points? Eagles.

Good luck everyone! And in case I missed you, Happy New Year!

True about Jackson... he lacked the confidence when first seeing the chargers... but now they are on the road and considered the underdawgs...

It will be an excellent game

I'd like to thank Jolt Cola for helping get me awake each day.


And my team, the San Diego Chargers of Los Angeles, as well as the local boys, the Houston Texans.

Thanks folks! I couldn't have done it without them!

I don’t have a dog in the fight...but I’d like to see Nick Foles get another ring.

A Christian and good guy with exceptional talent and a never-give-up attitude.

Foles is playing with bruised ribs, so he might not be 100%. Of course, a lot of players aren’t either. To me, the Bears strategy is going to be to try to make it a ground game, and force Foles to beat them with the pass. Like you, I don’t have a real dog in this game, but for picking purposes, I have chosen the Bears.

When the colts moved from Baltimore, Unitas did not go with them.
