You still won the week!
On the other hand, I'm getting nervous about Rubber Ducky, he's now only 6 points behind me in the overall rankings. I need a good week this week.
. . . and most of the rest of us need you to have a total and unforgettable collapse just to have a shot.

You're nervous? Due to my side bet with him at the end of the Superbowl if he is still beating me, I'll have to sing Achy Breaky Heart and post it on FB.

If you're including the playoff points, you have a better chance at besting him, seeing as playoff points are higher for wins.

Strangled cat is more than good enough for that damn song.

I'll tell you guys what. When Rubber Ducky beats me, as it is looking that way. Might as well extend my torture here, I'll try to post the video here too. AND YES, regardless of the numbers, I AM WAITING to post it AFTER the Superbowl. But I figure, if humans like watching daredevils fail and crash and burn, might as well give you guys a laugh too.

I take back the nice thing I said about your poem in the other thread.
I was just talking to John(Rubber Ducky) on the phone relaying his picks in PM sending them to Tibs. The bittersweet part of this is my late mom would be teasing me too and loving watching me squirm at such a loss. Story of my life. My mom also sided with my x wife when we hung out together. I've always been an easy tease.
You guys are mean! Someone could pour gas on me, light me on fire, and you and John would laugh and say, "Getting a little warm there Brian?"
With friends like you guys, who needs enemas?
