Been away for a bit. My picks are in! Thanks for updating the results while I was gone.

Thanks for the update, Van B. and congrats for getting close to the lead. Good luck to all!

I was at a sports bar watching the games. My prime focus was on the New England game, but I would hear cheers from the crowd watching the Cleveland/KC game. It seems that the whole game was made up of big plays. Both sides were making big plays. I left before the Green Bay/Pittsburgh game. Both teams were represented by loud fans at the bar.

Tiger is a moron.

16-0 regular season. Hasn't yet been matched.

Congratulations Agg! That's one less team that will match the Pat's undefeated season. Nice win for the 'boys.

First post for me in the new forum and it is fitting that it be to wish Jim a Very Happy Birthday!

Vaj would have picked the Clowns.

Vaj still in the overall lead. He's so darned consistent I don't see anybody catching him with only four weeks left.

Too bad. A new phrase has been coined: "Do an Agg!" Really doesn't matter to me. I'm so far in the pool now that it shouldn't make a difference if I blow another game.

Bravo, guys. Let's not to an "Agg!" I still think the Jets will win.

Just got back from the hospital and realized I never made a pick for tonight's game. Can I still pick? I wanted to go w/ NY Jets. Well, let me just take a loss for tonight's game. I wouldn't feel right if I won tonight's game. I'll get the picks in for Sunday.

That's not the point. The Tiger image has taken a big beating over this, which includes loss of big dollars in sponsorship and advertising.

Thanks for spelling me, Noj. I've been very busy as my final semester is closing out. Tons to do.

I think Buzz is banned. Or maybe the upstairs people have something to do with it. Yeah, check again next year, Jim, to see if anyone uses the feature. If not, might as well shut it down. I feel I've been able to "meet" certain boardmembers through live chat in a way that you couldn't do so by posting on the board. Who would have discovered that Free and Agg= dicks? It's a marvelous resource!

I'd like to keep it if possible. I've been out of work now for three years and can't really afford to chip in anything yet, but I will once I get back to work.

Yeah, I'm cool with it. (What a dick!)

I noticed the same thing. No fun, no enthusiasm, no fire. They lost to a great football team this evening. Will any team be able to beat the Saints? I don't think the Pats have recovered from that loss to the Colts. They had that game in hand and found a way to lose. It's still gnawing at them, I'm sure. Will they get their act together by playoffs? We'll see. Right now, I just don't see any team that comes close to the Saints. Colts aren't even close. They've had to mount major 4th quarter comebacks in so many games this season. That kind of stuff comes back to bite you. Saints look complete.

Mine weren't very good either, but the Pats can help me out with a win tonight. Pleeeeeze!

Gotta love the guy's insistence on privacy. The media hounds are too willing to jump on anything.

Sent PM for Charles Lloyd and Walter Wanderley.

Happy Birthday, John!

I know someone who worked in the Mariott chain. She told me that Tiger (pre-marriage) insisted on being served by blondes only. OK, his prerogative, but it does smack of arrogance.

I was very close to picking the Raiders to win today but couldn't bring myself to do it. It was a classic trap game.
