12. Yup, let's see if it works...sort of like true-false tests...you can probably
get 50% just by hitting "T" all the way down.

17. I'm surprised New England is only a 4 1/2 point favorite
over Cleveland. I took the Patriots, but of course I want the Browns to win.

18. Agreed. Maybe Pats are more banged up
RB Fred Taylor and starting S Jarad Page are out. Browns' secondary can't cover too well, but they can tackle and hopefully keep YAC low. It will be Colt McCoy's first start in front of the home town fans.

hughee (7-7) WEEK 1


OK. 4 weeks played was the minimum and still will be since this is an odd number week, 9. My limit is half of total weeks played is what moves you above the line for a percentage if you don't know already. Those below the line will be ranked by most total wins.

22. Oops. Yeah.
He has the same exact record as Scurrilous. I'll use this post as a reminder for when I do the standings next time. Too late to edit. Thanks for the catch.

30. I hope he's OK
I don't recall him taking this long coming back with the results, plus I haven't seen a post of his since Saturday.

(Auggie--I'm not hurrying you. I can wait as long as necessary if you're busy)
