Permalink Reply by Ed Albetski on September 13, 2011 at 8:34am Well, my strategy of picking all home teams for opening day has paid off, despite picking Miami over New England! I edged Mike in the tiebreaker by being closest to the score of the Denver - Oakland game (43 points) and won the opening week with 10 games right. The pick sheet for week 2 is up. Good luck!
As soon as I can get a scanner, I'll post the results sheets, but the breakdown for the week was:
Ed & Mike 10, Eddie & Ian 9, Kathy, Shawn, & Bill 8, and Kat 5. Some folks are emailing me their picks and that's ok.

The breakdown:Mike and Kathy: 13 wins
Ed, Eddie, and Ian: 12
Bill and Shawn: 10

Mike takes the overall lead for the cup by one point over me. Still early in the season, so try your hand at prognosticating.
