Crystal balls?

Hmmmmmm, yes. And they're marked "Fragile". I must be Italian!

And so it begins. After a good start, I fail by picking the Cowgirls. Lordy, 14 more chances to fail coming up...

Same here
It couldn't have been any closer without it being a tie though.

This week, just like last week, has a lot of games with lines of 3 points or less. So, I'm figuring, Okay, home field is worth 3 points, yet the line has the home team at 2 1/2. What do I do?

I'm skeered.

I am currently weighing my options. I know I need to change some of these.

Get out the dart board again.

There are two games I am close to changing... but then I feel that my original feeling was right. Grrrr. I am only second guessing myself because of that horrible last week.

The thing is, if you change the pick and go against your original "gut feeling" and it turns out to fail, you have to kick your own ass. I hate that.

Then again it could be like 3 or 4 weeks ago when his re-picks were an improvement.

It would have to be something pretty big and late-breaking in NFL news to get me to change my picks at this point.

Me: So Brett, I hear you'll be playing for the Phins today!

Brett: I will? When?

Me: Just joshing ya buddy.

Brett: Who's Josh?

Me: Dude!
