HawkShack NFL Pickem League

Congrats to ObS for taking the lead!

We be nipping at your heels now ...

[Zorn76]

Man, lol, BRUTAL week picking.
Looks like everybody bombed.
Good luck next week, everybody.

[c_hawkbob]

I can't remember having back to back weeks this bad ... luckily this week we all ha a rough time of it.

[RiverDog]

I saw the KC loss coming, but that's about all I got right. I can't get signed into my Yahoo account, this wireless server is really slow, but my sense is that I bombed like everyone else did.

[c_hawkbob]

You gained a game on me to tie us up overall and we're both a game behind ObS (you're in second place evidently on tiebreakers) and Zorny & Wait a sec are 4 and 5 places back for 4th and 5th respectively.

Thanks for the update.

[Zorn76]

Bumping this because...everybody finished the week with double digit wins. Well done. Should be a great finish.

An two weeks ago none of us could get above the Mendoza line ... Been an interesting year.

[Zorn76]

Last week was relatively easy - though I did inexplicably take Az to beat Atl, lol. Made up for it with the SD win.

The real b**** this year has been picking ATS.

I've gotten killed there, often only picking 1/3 correct on a parlay. I was 5/6 on a teaser last Sunday, with the Steelers (-4) killing that play (Saints win on the road after 3 straight home losses? Really?).

I've hit a couple this year, which basically guarantees me even for the season since I don't wager much. Still a pain to figure out, and it gets tougher every year, lol.

[Zorn76]

There's a reason those big casinos have so much money.

lol, yup. Suckers like me:)

[Zorn76]

RD coming up big lately in the pickem, for sure. I've been stuck in 4th place forever, lol.

[c_hawkbob]

I was tied with Dog for 2 behind ObS and now I'm tied with ObS for 2 behind Dog ... I'm getting nowhere here.

[Zorn76]

Still 3 weeks of regular season + playoffs.

Plenty of time for this thing to change.

You'll be right in the thick of it, Bob.

Hope I can sneak up a couple spots before postseason.

[RiverDog]

Thanks, ObS. But I'm not counting my fat ladies until the chickens sing.

[RiverDog]

Is this the last weekend or will we be picking the playoff games, too?

[c_hawkbob]

Playoffs count

[RiverDog]

I don't see a place to enter my playoff picks. Am I that illiterate?

[c_hawkbob]

If you go to the league page and click on statistics it shows that playoffs were not initially selected, so I guess it's over for this year ...

[c_hawkbob]

Congrats Riv! (I don't think we'd have caught you anyway)

[RiverDog]

Thanks, guys. When do I collect?

Sorry Guys over site on my part.

[Zorn76]

Check That - The playoffs are up and running for the pickem pool now, guys!

I just logged in, and it's all there for the picking!

This pool is still on.

Maybe people can post in here to acknowledge that they read my update!

Let's see how it turns out. I'm a looooong shot, but I'm glad it gets to play out anyway!

[Zorn76]

With only one, ahem, game left - and a 2 game lead - RD is now your official HawkShack NFL Pickem League winner for 2014.

Congrats on the win!

[obiken]

Way to go River, you da man!!

[RiverDog]

Thanks a lot, guys. But what did I win? Something that comes in a 16oz glass I hope?

[c_hawkbob]

Gongrats Riv! (whoa, deja vu) I didn't think we'd be able to catch you

[rottweiler]

Congrats to the winner.

Most importantly, a hearty thank you to you for having taken the time to set up the carnival joint for us again this season, Distant Relative my d-o-double-G.

You da man, homie.

[Distant Relative]

Sure. Come down to Phoenix and I'll buy you several. Got my plane tickets but not a bowl ticket yet.

Thanks Bro. Next year I will get it set up earlier so we can get more peeps.

Congrats RD.

There's a very small chance that I might go to the SB, but it's looking less and less likely every day.

Thanks for taking the time to set this up, DR. It was a lot of fun. Like fantasy football, it helped maintain my interest in all the games vs. only those involving and affecting the Hawks.
