....is...... a tie (I voted for fatherpimp's as well, since mine were going to be harder to keep track of; yours didn't last long enough for me, WB- sorry).

Okay, coin flip time. Heads, we're pimping; tails, we're Wild as we can be.

and it's....... HEADS! (it actually was, for you doubters out there) Okay, fatherpimp's Rank'em Challenge it is!

Games- Each player has to pick 4 games (against the spread) and rank them top to bottom

Scoring- +4 points for top game, +3 for second game, etc.

All contestants must post their picks by 4:00 EST Friday each week. There will be a new thread, with current standings and new game lines, each week on Tuesday afternoon.

1. Eagles at Boys = EAGLES
2. Atlanta at St Louis = ATL
3. Bucs at Skins = Bucs
4. Chiefs at Packers = Chiefs

I think Big AL should have to wait to post his shoe in till after the game of the week is over. I did mine before his pick cause I want to see how good I can really do.

Later,

Easy E · #6 10-09-2003, 11:11 AM

4 pts NO - 5.5
3 pts Cle -3
2 pts Phi -1 (Eagles have to give one)
1 pts Mia -3

(y'know, it's bad form to try to cheat the line ON THE VERY FIRST CHALLENGE! We assess you a penalty of -1 points to overcome! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img] )

Honest mistake make the eagles - 1 the pick then. As for taking a point penality [censored] OFF.

Easy E · #8 10-09-2003, 09:45 PM

we might have to send you to bed without supper.

And that's ANOTHER penalty point for rudeness.

Keep this up and you'll have to sweep just to break even!

You know, the current line has the Iggles at 1 pt dogs.

Easy E · #10 10-09-2003, 09:46 PM

but I'm not going to chase lines all week and hold up picks.
