Poetry

It surely appears that Patrick's poetry is equally insufferable. It is a good thing that Robert Frost is not around to witness Patrick's inept attempt to enter the world of poetry. Stick to the math big boy!

Week 12 Results and Stats, version 3

The Commissioner's strategy of purposely making addition errors to test the honesty of the community and strengthen the use of the GoZone is working very well. Below is the new, and perhaps final, stats for week 12.

How about some poetry.

To correct some errors I tried.
I can not tell a lie.
I should be 11-5.

I may be a few points out but at least I can claim the moral high ground. I wonder if "The Defender*" can say the same.

Also Ed should be 10-6.

By the way, Ed is constantly trashing the Pats. He is becoming insufferable to live with. Be thankful he does not post here.

Week 12 Observations

1.   Scott Rules the Week (Again). Scott is on fire! He followed last week’s winning average with this week’s as well, going 14-2. 

2.   The Commish Rebounds. He went 0-3 on Turkey Day and lost the first game on Sunday, but bounced backwith only one loss the rest of the way.

3.   Ed is Still a KaKa Head. Yes, for the umpteenth time, Ed picked against the Patriots. We’ll  never know why because he neither answers his phone or returns e-mail, but for some reason he continues to pick against the Pats. And he has a degree in history!

4.   Picks of the Week. Kate and Luke get the POW honors, picking the Redskins over the Seahawks.

5.   Turkey Picks of the Week. Kate for picking the Chiefs (and I gave her 3 chances to change that!), Luke for picking the Bills (although that could have been a great pick!),  Of course Ed for his Eagles pick, Bran and Ryan for the Bears pick, and Luke again for his Browns pick (although that one too was very close).  The final Turkey Pick was Sean for his Bucs pick. That team has tanked with a much more difficult schedule than last year.

6.   JoJo Still Rules. Jo has a one point lead on the Prince of Darkness 128-127. The Commish is next with 125 and Patrick and Wayne are tied with 124. With 5 games remaining, time is getting short to make up points, but the way Scott is going, he might soon be in the running.

Week 12 Results and Stats

The Commissioner apologizes for the late posting of these statistics. He incurred a wrenched back and severe muscle spasms apparently brought on by long hours of watching football on Thanksgiving. The injury had nothing to do with his early evening fall, according to league sources.

What???

Week 12 Commissioner's Picks

Lions over the Packers. Detroit has been known for upsets on Turkey Day and this is another checkpoint on their improvement and chances for the playoffs.

Dolphins over the Cowboys. Romo will have a tough defense to figure out and Miami is on a role.

49ers over the Ravens. 49ers win this civil war because they are more balanced.

Rams over the Cardinals. Don’t know, don’t care.

Jets over Buffalo. Both of these teams are like Shakespearian epic tragedies, with plenty of blood and guts and egos and highs and lows. Jets are more sound and balanced.

Falcons over the Vices. Falcons fighting for something.

Panthers over the Colts. The Colts seem to have Luck sewed up, but you can never be too sure.

Titans over the Bucs. Bucs are in disarray. Titans still in it.

Texans over the Jags. Texans staggered by loss of their quarterback, but Jags are too inconsistent to take advantage.

Bengals over the Browns. Bengals in the hunt. Browns are the hunted.

Raiders over the Bears. Long trip west, new quarterback. Looks ominous for the Bears.

Seahawks over the Redskins. There, I’ve done it. I’ve picked the Seahawks.

Tebows over the Chargers. Tebow has more will than the Chargers can muster.

Patriots over the Eagles. The Eagles are a scary bunch, but as much so to their own fans as to opponents.

Steelers over Chiefs. Biggest mismatch of the week.

Saints over the Giants. Giants always seem one stupid loss from total implosion.

response to little baby

To Big Baby no named Bran,
Waaaaah! Waaaaah! The Commish has already allowed an owner to have two names(Bran-Ry) which is totally illegal under Section 1. Article 2 Line 0 of the league by-default bye-bye laws. This cry for attention will not go unnoticed. Even McKenzie has reacted negatively to this heinous outburst prompted no doubt by a hormonal imbalance!!! All of this masking a poor week of picks by a certain owner. This bashing of "The Defender" needs to be addressed. Suspensions and fined should be levied! This action rivals Rex Ryan cursing out a fan!!!!!
"Give me liberty or give me another grandchild" - The Defender

Week 11 Observations

1.     JoJo Still the Leader. Jo slipped a little to 9-5, but still leads by 1 point over Kevin and the Commish. Wayne is next at 112, then Patrick at 111. Patrick has prospered since he separated his picks from his dad’s.

2.     Scott Rules the Week. Scott scored an incredible 13-1 this week. It is a new record. Overall it was a strong week for many members with Patrick at 12-2, Kevin and the Commish with 11-3 and Wayne and Ed with 10-4.

3.     Bran and Ryan Slumping. Something is amiss in Central Florida, where members Bran and Ryan seem confused by odds-making, home teams and over-under predictions. Sean and Kevin have hinted at their unique system for making picks, so maybe the league should know more about that, so that we can offer our advice and help, of course.

4.     Unanimous Choices Strong. The league went 4-1 on its unanimous choices. The Cowboys, Packers, Bears and Patriots won, the Giants lost.

5.     Pick of the Week. There was no singular POW, but Patrick, Mike, Sean and Scott all scored with the Broncos over the Raiders. Luke won the reverse pick of the week with his belief that the Cardinals would beat the 49ers in San Francisco. That pick took guts…or something.

Possible new regulation

I believe that the "defending champ" (and I use this phrase lightly) should be limited to the number of posts per season. His petty complaints and comments are clogging up my inbox. Also, I vote that anyone who gets pregnant within the season should automatically be given bonus points.

Written by Little Baby no name

Week 11 Results and Stats

Scott

Great week for Scott. He should choose more often when asleep. No midwest muck lately or Sibley snivelings. Bran needs to let Ryan start making those picks. the Commish calls me and leaves a message for me to leave a message. I think the job has gotten to him. SHORT WEEK AGAIN. Three games on turkey thursday. Happy gobble-gobble to all!!

The Defender

Eagles Sink Scott

The Eagles' win over the Giants ruined Scott's pick run. He is 12-1 pending the Monday night Game.

Good week Scott!!!

The Commissioner's Week 11 Picks

Lions over the Panthers. The Lions have weathered their inconsistency but still can be beaten, but not by the Panthers, who are settling into mediocrity.

Raiders take the Vikes. The AFC West is now a dog fight and I think the Raiders have some grit.

Cowboys over the Redskins. What ever happened to Mike Shanahan?

Dolphins over the Bills. The Bills are much better at home (only 1 road victory) and the Dolphins are stabilizing.

Browns over the Jags. Really no idea here. Just went with the home team.

Ravens over the Bungles. Cincy us getting better, but Ravens need this one bad.

Packers over the Bucs. Bucs are in shock and are about to meet awe.

Rams over Seahawks. I am contractually forbidden from picking a Pete Carroll team.

49ers over the Cardinals. 49ers on a mission, Cardinals looking for a missionary.

Titans over Falcons. I think the Falcons have missed the boat this season, and the Titans think they own it.

Bears over Chargers. As usual, Bears better than expected, Chargers worse. See you later, Norv Turner.

Giants over Eagles. Giants end the Eagles’ hopes to come back, as only the Giants can.

Patriots over the Chiefs. Unfortunately for Ed, league by-laws clearly state that a member who picks against the Patriots 4 times in a season is forbidden to ever pick them again that season. Read the small print, Easy Ed.

Thursday Night Picks; The Jets got Tebowed!!

JoJo The Awesome Leader Thursday Pick

The Jets for the Win

Week 11 Thursday Night Picks

Pat: Broncos

Ed: Jets

Commentary:

I believe that since Denver is hot right now and playing at home and since the Jets are probably a little gassed from a late Sunday night loss to the Pats, the advantage should go to Denver.

Ed believes the Jets Defense will stop Denver's running game giving the Jets the edge over Denver. Also my dad is a well known Jets lover.

Thursday Night Picks

thurs night pick

kate: jets
scott: broncos

Thursday Night Pick

After due consideration, the Commissioner picks the Tebows over the Jets. The Jets have a history of delivering clunkers after games against the Pats. Last year they lost to the Dophins, at home, 12-9. In the playoffs they lost to the Steelers after a widely reported week of partying celebrating their victory in Foxborough.

I think the Tebows would be easier to beat if a team got a few touchdowns ahead and made them pass. The Jets' offense is not a high scoring one. It will be the ground and pound Jets against the even more ground and pound Tebows. Also, this looks like a cosmic case of Good vs. Evil. The foot-fetishing, minor-dating, illegal-gun-shooting, not-paying-child-support-for-your-5-illegitimate-kids Jets seem at a disadvantage against the God-fearing, country-loving, polite Tebows. Throw in a very short week, a long flight, high altitude, and Denver fans, and I see a classic trap game.

Plus, I just hate the Jets. The Commish has spoken (or, more accurately, written).

My picks for this week:

Jets over Denver
Atlanta over Tennessee
Miami over Buffalo
Baltimore over Cincy
Cleveland over J-Ville
Vikings over Raiders
Detroit over Carolina
Packers over Tampa Bay
Dallas over Skins
Frisco over Zona
St. Louis over Seattle
Bears over Chargers
Giants over Philly
Pats over KC

North Florida Alternative Game Info

In an attempt to be an all service league, Kevin has suggested that the Commissioner post an alternative game information for those who want minimal information to best avoid league office machinations. Here it is:

Game 1—1:00
Game 2—1:00
Game 3—1:00
Game 4—1:00
Game 5—1:00
Game 6—1:00
Game 7—1:00
Game 8—4:05
Game 9—4:05
Game 10—4:15
Game 11—4:15
Game 12—8:20
Game 13—8;30

*Note that the 4:05 games differ from the 4;15 games in starting times.

Week 10 Observations

1.     JoJo Still Strong. Jo remains in the lead with 104 points, followed closely by Kevin, Wayne and the Commish with 101. Patrick is steady at 98 and Bran and Ryan are next with 96.

2.     Kevin Up, Wayne Down. Kevin was the week’s winner at 10-6 and 11 points. Wayne slipped with 7-9, but won the Monday Night Pick.

3.     Something Foul on Silbey Terrace. The O’Leary boys, Ed and Patrick, broke the tacit but well known ban against picking against the Patriots. The League Office is concerned by their flagrant disregard for precedent, and has initiated an investigation into the motivation for their anti-Patriot, anti-American and anti-God picks. Until the investigation is over, their point totals will be astericked.

4.     Unanimous Picks Mixed. The league members were 1-2 on unanimous picks, losing on the Ravens and Eagles and winning on the Packers. All were overwhelming and overwhelmingly logical picks though.

5.     Picks of the Week. Leader Jo shares the pick of the week with her endorsement of the Titans over the Panthers. Luke has the other POW with his Raiders pick.

6.     Reverse Picks of the Week. Wayne lost with the Colts and Patriot haters Ed and Patrick picked the Jets. Patrick and the Commish were alone in their losing picks of the Bucs.

7.     Falcons/Saints Game. Points were won and lost by members after the Falcons went for it on fourth and one and lost, thereby giving the game to the Saints. A tough way to lose a point!

Week 10 Results and Stats

Week 11 Games

In keeping with the minimalist approach suggested from North Florida, the Commissioner's office presents this schedule of games:

Thursday, November 17, 2011
New York Jets at Denver Broncos, 8:20 p.m.

Sunday, November 20, 2011
Carolina Panthers at Detroit Lions, 1 p.m.
Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins, 1 p.m.
Jacksonville Jaguars at Cleveland Browns, 1 p.m.
Oakland Raiders at Minnesota Vikings, 1 p.m.
Cincinnati Bengals at Baltimore Ravens, 1 p.m.
Dallas Cowboys at Washington Redskins, 1 p.m.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Green Bay Packers, 1 p.m.
Seattle Seahawks at St. Louis Rams, 4:05 p.m.
Arizona Cardinals at San Francisco 49ers, 4:05 p.m.
Tennessee Titans at Atlanta Falcons, 4:15 p.m.
San Diego Chargers at Chicago Bears, 4:15 p.m.
Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants, 8:20 p.m.

Monday, November 21, 2011
Kansas City Chiefs at New England Patriots, 8:30 p.m.

If the time and place of games is considered to bias picks, the league office will try to find a source without that information as well.

Wow!

There seems to be some pent-up anger coming from a Lake Mary owner. She took little time and only a few words to totally dismiss many of the other owner's worthiness. Sean says she has enrolled in the local anger management class but is upset that the sessions are held on sunday afternoons. Now that last year's totals are official, she attacks the "defender" with some gobble-dy gook about the season being too short! Wait, I think I hear Cuz banging on the keys to find another reason for the inept asterisk*********to be placed somewhere in the archives of the Commish's office. Just a pathetic attempt to discredit those on top. It was nice to see something from Bran. I was beginning to think she was turning into an Uncle Ed. As for the race for the Limpbody trophy this year, it should be tight right to the end. A note of interest though, as it looks like the leader Jo may take a bit of a stumble this week. Somebody tell Patrick that the Pats won and let Luke know that the games are usually on sunday and he got lucky with that pick on thursday. Last I knew the Commish was internet-friendly but haven't heard a lick lately! Get out of the pool and send some memos! The owners need to discuss a possible fine for Bran's goopy-poopy rant********************************************.

Best to all

The Defender

The Silence is Broken

After much thought, I have decided to break my silence. I would like to first request that the Commish cease sending out the weekly games with the spread showing who is favored. This is causing multiple unanimous decisions among the players. I know this is an evil plot to get us all thinking the same way so the Commish can manipulate the season. Don't think I haven't been watching you Commish. The simple fact that you cannot complete the simple math each week makes me question your capability to run this league. I have some extra fingers and toes if you'd like to borrow them for the tally. I'd like to leave you with all with this little limerick:

There once was a boy named Kevin
Who on average scores a seven
He is the defender without reason
Because he won only half a season
The results should be tossed
Because the Commish is always sloshed
His mathematics aren’t up to par
Probably because he’s been at the bar
A new champ will be crowned
As long as I’m around
And leave the rest of you with a frown(ed)

Week 10 Commissioner's Picks

After Luke’s Raiders pick, I admit I am spooked. A vast majority of America, including all other league members, picked the Chargers and for good reason. Yet, logic, stats and supposed motivation seem not to rule the day.

This week:

Pitt over the Bungles. Could be close though. Pitt needs to rebound after Ravens loss. Cincy is still suspect to me.

Kansas City over Broncos. Romeo Crennel did a great job of boxing in running quarterbacks when he was with the Pats. Not sold on the Tebows.

Jags over Colts. The Colts have too much to lose for.

Cowboys over the Bills. Bills may have met the wall this season.

Bucs over Houston. Home game, motivation go to Bucs.

Panthers over the Titans. Newton makes it happen.

Dolphins over Redskins. What ever happened to Shannahan?

Falcons over Saints. Saints all of a sudden look beatable.

Bears over Lions. Impressed with Bears last week. Lions face a correction in the force.

Rams over the Browns. I haven’t lost points betting against the Bears this year.

Eagles over the Cards. This is a must for Phillie to save their season.

Ravens over the Seahawks. I just can’t bring myself to pick the Seahawks.

49ers over the Gints. Giants are weak front runners.

Pats over the Jets. This is a huge game for both teams. Jets defense has settled in and their offense has been improving. Pats defense remains the same, but the offense is scuffling. Pats need to pass to set up the run. Against the Giants, they ran three times and failed to make a first down twice in the first half. That is not them.

Packers over Minnesota. The Pack go undefeated until the Superbowl, where the Pats win on a last second field goal.

Thursday Night Picks

I hate to tell you this, but look who Luke picked!

Thursday Night Pick

After copious and assiduous research, the Commish picks The Chargers over the Raiders. Despite losing many points on the Chargers this year, the Commish feels that the Raiders are at a disadvantage working in a new quarterback and missing their star running back. In addition, the Chargers, though reeling from 3 straight losses, might have had a breakthrough of sorts in scoring so many points against the Pack. Also the game is at San Diego.

Chargers

This is cuz wayne, and my picks were posted last night.

I figured the rest of you dummies needed someone to lead the way, shine the light, so to speak.

They must go through a lot of cheese in Naples, what with all that whine and all...

Thursday Night Game

The Commissioner's Office wants members to know that if they miss picking the Thursday night game, they still can make Sunday and Monday night picks. Also, members can send in only Thursday night's pick and then pick the rest before the games start on Sunday.

This ruling applies to all members, even Ed. It applies to Cousin Wayne as well, even though Kevin wants a mid-west exemption.

The Commish has spoken.

Congrats Jo!

We've always known you are the brains in that house...

Gloating Glow

For some unknown reason, there is an edgy, gloating type of glow coming out of the Commish's office based on "The Defender" having a tough week. Staying with the pack is key and the good teams always come back strong. As Montaigne said before his last game, " Go forward and pass assiduous owners in due time".
Is Ed still in the league? Scott got lucky and Cuz probably picked after the games again. Lucas has been sniffing too much cement dust and Jo all of a sudden has become much more scientific with her picks. No word lately from the Nocturnal Nomad. Must be shoveling that October snow. Bran-Ry are making that mid-season run as if to say " we belong in this league". Kate, forget about it. Sean started slow and is now going slower. Is there room for expansion?

Week 9 Observations

1.     Jo Continues to Lead. Jo was 7-7 but in an off week for most that kept her lead. She has 95,  Wayne 93, the Commish 91, and Patrick and Kevin with 90.

2.     Scott and B-Ry Remain Hot. Scott tied Bran and Ryan with a 9-5 week, continuing hot streaks for them.

3.     Picks of the Week. Lucas gets the first two awards, one for the Dolphins over the Chiefs and another for the Cowboys over the Raiders. He also joined Scott as the only two members to choose the Ravens over the Steelers.

4.     Strong on Unanimous Picks. Only the Eagles lost as a unanimous pick. The Falcons, Saints, Cowboys and Texans all won. Green Bay wasn’t unanimous when Kate picked the Chargers.

5.     Kevin’s Worst Week Ever! Proving there is a higher power, Kevin slipped to 5-9 this week. That means he lost 4 more picks  than he won. He almost doubled his win total with his loss total. I’ve heard that Kenzie is kind of embarrassed for him, and Ryan cried when he heard about Kevin’s picks this week.  Buck up, Kevie. That Grandfather worship couldn’t last forever!

Week 9 Results and Stats

URGENT BULLETIN

Owners:

It seems the Commish hired three Guatemalans and two squirrels to do some yard work at the home office. One such task was taking down a tree. Upon inspection of the felled tree, the two squirrels noticed that more than the tree came down. The Commish is temporarily out of phone and internet communication. The house was spared. The situation will be rectified by friday. Please bear with the inconvenience. Personally, it could not have come during a better week of picking winners.
Two of the Guatemalans were treated and released. The Commish is currently negotiating a discount for the "work" done.
