connoisseur series500 Posted September 12, 2005 Report Posted September 12, 2005 I'd love to join in with you guys but very early on in my adult life, I saw several good friends get in deep with the bookies. One guy had to flee town or lose his ability to talk & walk properly. To this day, I refuse to gamble on anything but lottery tickets. ... not that this is gambling here. Besides, I would have done terrible. Kevin ← I have never placed a bet on sports. Don't plan to either. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Congratulations Shawn for finishing atop week 1! (You keeping track of this, SS1?) Quote
Shawn Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 Thanks. Interesting weekend of football, that's for sure! My standout players for this past week: Willie Parker - Pittsburgh..this kid can BOOGIE...good grief. Cadillac Williams - Tampa Bay...yet another fantastic runner, explosive takeoff. Tim Rattay (!) - San Fran...nice little feat of grabbing the starting QB job from Alex (paid way too much) Smith...and then having a classy start to the season as well. Now if he keeps it up, he could have a "Drew Brees" season. Quote
connoisseur series500 Posted September 14, 2005 Report Posted September 14, 2005 We really would have tied, Shawn, if I hadn't forgotten to post my Washington pick... You guys know I would not fail to mention this whenever it suits me. Quote

connoisseur series500 Posted September 17, 2005 Report Posted September 17, 2005 I'll default on that Ss1. If I'm tied with someone for the lead, give them the victory. I'm more concerned about the cumulative stats. Ticked at myself for not going for any upset this week. Nothing "speaks" to me right now. (I love picking upsets.) Quote
