I have to say, after last year I'm pleasantly surprised at the diversity of selections! Of course on Tuesday we'll know how smart that turns out to be in retrospect...
But at least there aren't people picking both sides of the same game. :) | Promote this thread! |             | haz

Reposted on: 8.9.12 1155.39 | Yes, you're right. However, you had the option to be reminded on more than one day of the week -- not that I did that, obviously.
FWIW - New Orleans
EDIT - I did this last year - I'm used to these being a "pick the loser" pool. I'm going with Carolina, even though I'm not officially in it.

From everyone's favourite The Sports Guy: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story?page=simmons/050909
"VIKINGS (-6) over Bucs
How many people are going to be teasing this game...
Rams (-5.5) over NINERS
...with this one? And that's the problem. So allow me to do this:
NINERS (+5.5) over Rams
For three reasons. First, you should never tease two of the Mikes together, not under any circumstances! Second, everyone and their brother picked the Rams in their Suicide Pool this week. And third, everyone thinks the Rams are reliable on the road for some reason, when the reality is this: Against the spread in road games over the past three years, they're 7-19. (See, that's why I get the big bucks -- for stats like that.)"
