Well, there it is. Congratulations to Spence, our first half champ. I knew I was slipping, but I was assuming I would hold the field off, but Spence caught up to me! He needed to beat me by two; I finished 13-7 and he went 15-5. Congrats again! Our week 7 high scorer was Rutanreds, again. My money is on him to win the second half! He looks like he's ready to lay us to waste here. He was the high scorer of the week with 16 correct picks. Good luck to all of those in the second half and if you haven't been playing along, this is your chance to pick for something!

89 out of 140. Wow none of us did really well this time around huh. That is like 63.5%. Mountainman picked up around 80% that one year.

I just can't see anyone pulling an 80% in today's game. Teams are too close.

MM did it just a few years ago. I'm sure there was that much different he was just really good a picking teams straight up.

Not sure what week I missed....not that it is all that important.

Whoops!

Your avatar and Doss' look alike. Just a random assortment of the same shade of blue You had 14 last week. Problem fixed.

Such a quick fix.

Eric is pretty good for a guy from Michigan. He must be the one I always hear about.

I'd think it a bit more difficult.

Eric...how do other member numbers compare from 3 years ago to today?

Most were about what we have now except MM and Rutanreds were exceptional players.

Spence will Mountainman ever come back...Have you heard?

I don't know. It has been a while since I have heard from him. I talked to him right before the WVU=Oklahoma BCS game and then again after the LSU national championship win. I haven't heard from him since then. He was sharp as a tack - on football as well as lots of other things. Also a very good guy.

What happened to him? Why did he disappear like that?? It's been a while....

Can't say.
