Happy Holidays, Revenge of the Birds! I hope you've had a chance to extract yourself from your real egg nog, spiced rum, and gin fizzes long enough to realize that the "abortion" of a game the Cardinals played during Week 16 was duplicated in our Pick'em League. Congratulations go to CardsIrish and KDean75 for pulling their own meaningless 78-yard TDs to finish 9-7 for the week. The rest of us, well, let's just say our prediction accuracies took a snow brick to the face. Red Reign has a comfortable one percent lead as it would take a stellar week for myself to catch him and a perfect week of picks for AJ. It's a good thing he has to pick the final two weeks to qualify (thanks for the reminder AJ). So, I'll hold the final congratulations for next week. ::big smile::
DON'T FORGET: FULL 16-game Schedule to be played Sunday! When did that last happen?! NEVER!

Correct me if I'm wrong, Hawk
But weren’t the final two weeks of the season mandatory to be eligible?

Indeed you are correct AJ!
So…bclairao was the “smart” one in a sardonic manner.

I'm a winner - I'm a winner!!
Didn’t think I’d get the chance to say that!
Pity my 9 week win streak in the ROTB fantasy football came to an end this week though!

I had to watch the pre-game shows as I've been OOT with the NFL since Xmas Eve
Indeed, good luck Red Reign. Kinda having our own “Causeway Classic”. :P

0.632 would have been your final winning percentage, would have been good for fourth place!
