Seems most people didn't do as well, a couple still have an opportunity to have 10 wins besides Tibs who would go up to 11.
Mad at my mom (not really, he he,) she'd been doing so well I decided to simply go with her picks. So much for the smart Chinese kid you copy off of in class.
I swear, the guy who runs this thread should be impeached for nepotism, "WOTC". Gotta be a conflict of interest in here somewhere. I think he's going to keep all the pocket lint for himself.
If there is no congressional investigation about this setup I will be forced to post an ABBA video in it.

I'm hoping the Cowboys play their starters. I want to see another good game. Lions are playing for their lives.

After this week, the following players are mathematically eliminated from the overall 1st place spot (meaning even if they won all their picks and the #1 ranked player(s) lost all theirs, they still wouldn't end up ranked #1 overall).
TheRealJoeFish
The Gentleman Bastard
