NFL Confidence Picks Week 5

HOW DID YOU DO? Hope you had fun.  I did SPECIAL NOTE:  SAN DIEGO @ OAKLAND  GAME TIME HAS BEEN CHANGED TO 23:30 SUNDAY NIGHT.  This is due to the Oakland  A’s  Vs Detroit Tigers 21:00 start.  They say it takes the ground crew about 24 hours to convert the field from a BASEBALL configuration, to a FOOTBALL configuration.

Maybe next week the Refs will be better prepared;  knowing we have recorders and can do our own reviews. Check back tomorrow for week 6 schedule and Thursday to check my picks. ‘Til  then relax and enjoy life.  At 8:25 Thursday it is back to do battle Af SOLDIER FIELD. Post Views: 86

NFL PICKS CONFIDENCE RANKING 11-15 THRU 11-18-2012

For those of you who do not know how confidence ranking goes, let me explain. If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT).  The object is to score the most points. We use the Monday night game as a TIE BREAKER.  The tie is broke by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating tams) final score, without going over. If we were playing this is how my sheet would look;  My pick will be in bold letters.  you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting.  I will show my correct points in Bold   [table] GAME, CONFIDENCE,RUNNING SCORE 11/15 8:20 PM ET MIAMI  14 @ BUFFALO 19,              2    (HIT),2 11/18 1:00 PM ET      PHILADELPHIA  14 @ WASHINGTON 31 ,3      (HIT),5 GREEN BAY 24 @DETROIT 20, 4      (miss) ARIZONA 19 @ ATLANTA 23,13      (HIT), 18      TAMPA BAY  27 @ CAROLINA  21 (OT),1     (miss), CLEVELAND 20 @ DALLAS 23 (OT),11    (HIT),29 N .Y.

I WILL BEAT YOU !!!! Have fun WRAP UP: A disappointing total of 73 pts.  Not my usual tally.  However I was off only 3 pts on the tie breaker. Hope you found this as fun as we always did at work.  Check back Wednesday or Thursday before the games start. (If you dare try to match wits with me again) Post Views: 83

My NCAA Picks Play In Games

Many of you play your office NCAA Pool.  As I no longer have anyone but myself in my office, I’m just going to share my first four picks with you. So be this a short post here goes. TUESDAY MARCH 13, 2012  7 pm Mississippi Valley State, (20-12),  Located in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.  Known as the “Delta Devils”  The Southwestern Athletic Conference Champs.  Take on the Western Kentucky “Hilltoppers” of Bowling Green Kentucky. Represent Sun Belt (East) Conference, made their last NCAA Tournament appearance in 2009 I see all the games as being close and highly competitive.  But looking at the quality of schedule I will have to give the nod to Mississippi Valley State .  Most likely by less than 5 points. UM!!!  Can I rewrite this?  Great game. Great comeback WKU. TUESDAY MARCH 13,2012  9 ish BYU (Brigham University), Cougars coming out of Provo Utah, appears to have a relatively weak schedule, (compared to the majority of schools in the tournament). Representing the West Coast Conference, and SWEET SIXTEEN appearance last year.  Face off with Iona, “Gaels” from New Rochelle, New York.  Representing the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference also has a weak schedule.  So this should make up an interesting match up.  My pick Iona by 4 points or less. Good Luck to all four teams. To Recap I have: Mississippi Valley State moving on as 16 seed in  the SOUTH Region to face Overall Number One seed Kentucky . Iona College to a 14 seed in the West Region facing Number 3 Marquette’ Tomorrow I will post my other two game picks.  Then my entire tournament picks will before the first game of the 64 is played. I really need to rewrite this. That Is How I See It.     Post Views: 212
