I have week 5's teams:

Code: Select all

JAC @ BUF  
DEN @ BAL      
ATL @ CLE         
KC @ IND       
TB @ CIN          
GB @ WAS     
STL @ DET  
CHI @ CAR

Who am I? I'd rather not answer that question, the real question is, "Who are you?". Right now I am trying to think of something witty to put here.. I might not find anything, but that's fine. This block of text should be fine for a signature. Wait, are you still reading this? Why are you reading this? Stop. Seriously.
STOP.
This sentence is true.
The sentence above is false.

I dare you not to read this.
Hey! I said not to read this.
Maybe if I talk like this.
Wait, you still see me? *sighs* I give up.

It is a weird season.
In the past, in dad’s pool, I won four of five times in one season! But this year I have no clue.
I’m starting to get a feel for the teams this season, and it almost paid off last week, but not quite.
I’m thinking after this week I’ll have it down. Two more weeks at the most I hope.

SOOOOOOoooo.....

Ryder broke his leg badly and is being flown to the States for surgery- please keep him in your prayers. I'll be taking over the football pool until he's back on his feet again, literally. Please send all entrance fees to me in the future.

Irwin won week five's football pool with 9 correct guesses- IDANCE4JESUS came in second with 7 correct, however she failed to put who she thought would win out of Denver and Baltimore- giving the answer to her correctly would have complicated things, and therefore, it was simply left as is. Bookworm also came in second with 7 correct.

Irwin: 9 correct
IDANCE4JESUS: 7
bookworm: 7
Top: 6
aioluver: 5
AE: 5
Ryder: 4

Denver did not win. :(

And yeah, get well Ryder! :x Clearly you will run this pool better than I&L! :x

...and btw I think I heard them mention this is the first season since 1970 that there hasn't been a single undefeated team left by this point in the season. \:D/

Congrats to AE and other Detroit fans, too, while I'm randomly typing sentences here. ;) Please pity my Bengals, who lost 2 out of the 3 "easy" games they just had. :(
