    I'm not studying the records and checking the stats of these teams anymore......it does no good whatsoever, LOL. This week I'm just making my pick based on what I know and don't know about these teams......and trusting my instinct. The real fact is I have a 50/50 chance of being right and lucky.

    it's all in the games that get picked...could easily make it where everyone is hovering around 90%...

    i think i do an ok job of throwing in big games, meaningful games, and close games (on paper anyways)...
    i think you all would laugh if you saw the method to my madness of picking the games lol...

    It is west Texas biased and smells of beer!!! I mean I just had to Google 2 of this weeks teams to see if they were real or you just made them up.

    i try to do an equal number of games from each region - sometimes there just aren't any good ones in a region...like once the playoffs hit, region 3 is pretty much out of the contest...

    I picked Ackerly Sands without even checking just because it sounded like some remote desert town where the only thing going on is football on Friday nights.
