No need to apologize about that. I remember one NFL comp a few years ago where there were 29 tippers! Oddly enough, I still have my hair too lol.

Welcome to the 2012 NFL season tipping comp! Trash talking is allowed, but remember to keep it within the FT rules. We have 25 runners this year, a mere four off the record 29, and two more than last year. If I can handle 29 in a comp, I can certainly handle 25. wink Bring on any more takers and let's see if we can get to 30! The all-time record in any FT comp is 32 participants. No shows from last year are rxbigdawg and triviapaul. Welcome to the new and MIA tippers this year, szabs, MikeMaster99, chogobad, wwe84, and doomed (the MIA one). We don't bite around here, but we do have a great time!

PaulE takes the first weekly win of the year, and does it in style as he picked 13 to gain a bonus point, then was one of three to pick the Saints to lose in the Superdome (szabs and Dizart were the other two). LeoDaVinci and KrivoyRog also picked up bonuses for picking the Niners to win at Lambeau (I'm not surprised by one's choice lol).

As the season progreeses, someone will have their name in lights, and some may not be in the best of circumstances, as is MikeMaster99 this week by taking the first Spoon of the season. Don't worry, Mike, the season is young and there is plenty of time to go!

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...he went 14-2 last year. He's 0-1 to start this year.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)


Spreads for each week are found here: http://www.footballlocks.com/nfl_point_spreads.shtml
If the spread is PK the favorite for the tipping comp will be the team on the left, on that page.

Shot myself in the foot in the first week by not tipping my own team! :-(

Still not sure if we were that good or if the Packers are that bad!

Ask LeoDaVinci. He's also a Niners fan.

The Niners were that good. Their receiving corps is one of the best in the NFL, and their defence is top-three, if not the best in the league. Their special teams are top-five, with their kickers Akers and Lee, are the best punter and one of the best placekickers in the league as well. Alex Smith was having a good day, and with so many good options to throw to, Davis, Crabtree, Manningham, and Moss, it's not hard to find a good set of hands to toss the ball into. Finally, with (knock on wood) Frank Gore healthy, they have a tank at the running back position that can get consistent yardage.

I agree with all of that except for the recieving core being one of the best in the NFL. For mine it isn't, partly because of Alex Smith and Harbaugh's conservative approach, but also because I'm predicting regression from Davis, while Crabtree is overrated, Moss is 99% likely past it, and Manningham was the 3rd WR on the Giants. I'd much rather have the receiving core of Dallas, Atlanta, NYG, New England, Green Bay, Philly etc.

Still early in the season as most of us did not keep our placings from last week. Some went up, and some went down. The biggest move this week was Sypher's 15 place drop after garnering a Spoon with only five correct. He must have been listening to Tom Petty's early 90's hit, "Free Fallin'."

PaulE holds the top spot again, but had his lead cut by one.

N-Bomb and chogobad missed the Bears v Packers game, N-Bomb by a fluke error, and chogobad by tipping late. Chogobad's pick would not have mattered as the Packers won the game.

MikeMaster99 was our first default victim as he missed altogether. He scores six as it is, again, higher of wooden spoon or six, and since Sypher only scored five, six points were awarded for default.

No bonus points were scored this week, as no one scored higher than 12, and a minimum of four picked every game except one. The game that went to four was the Cowboys game...and it wasn't Romo's fault they lost! The big shocker of the week is that the Patriots lost...at home...to the Cardinals!

This was NOT a week to go with many road teams, as only two won...just enough to state that if someone had run the table, they'd still have earned a bonus.

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...0-2 this year. He will have to run the table to tie last year's record.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)

One thing about this NFL season is that the referees are the ones who are deciding many games with absolutely shocking decisions, making a mockery of the season and games difficult to pick. I have just finished watching Seattle vs Green Bay and wondering how Seattle can win with a Green Bay interception? Plus the most blatant push in the back than you can get....wow.

I know. The way that play looked, I could have already had the results posted. Now I'm having to go back and redo everything because of an offensive pass interference!!

Please bring back the REAL NFL refs, as Howie is right. No other season has been so difficult to pick.

Not a good week overall, as very few players even score half this week. If it weren't for a few games, this would have been one of the worst weeks in the NFL comp.

Lots of bonus points go out this week, as six games were picked by less than three.

Ozfei's tip of the Giants/Panthers game came at 5:30pm FT time, so she did not score on that one.

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...1-2 this year. He finally got one right lol.

I have not seen as many bad calls as I have this season...and this is only week 3! I dread to see what happens by Week 7 or 8 at this point. Not often a team wins on an offensive pass interference, but it happened this week, plus they were given a defensive pass interference earlier in the game that should have gone the other way; it was so blatant that a non-football fan could have caught that miscall.

**Comp note: The mad face above on the Green Bay versus Seattle game has absolutely nothing to do with Seattle winning; it has to do with the absolutely poor officiating at the end of the game.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)

Another week goes by and another week with lots of movement. Illiniman14 had it going this week, as did PaulE and BxBarracuda, and all three of them jagged a bonus point; the only ones of the week, as all games were tipped by at least four. Illiniman sees the most rewards from it, as he jumps from 19th to 7th! Not a lot of major moves otherwise.

MikeMaster99 is one week away from going default, as he has not tipped the last three weeks.

A much better record this week, but as the real refs are back, at least the refs know the rules and kept games in check this week.

†Both szabs and themonarch received "gimme" points for the Ravens as no one picked the Browns to win.

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...1-3 this year. Better luck next year, as he cannot catch last season's 14-2 stat.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Lots of high marks this week, and the two defaulters would have scored more had KrivoyRog not scored six. Four players did not lodge tips for Thursday's game. It will be that way with a Thursday game until near the end...just a reminder.

Chogobad jagged one of only two bonus points this week by going 12 or more of 14. The other one was doomed, who has 50 words to tell us why he went with Indy over Green Bay. Was it because of their coach? I, as well as the other 23, are curious. wink I'm sure szabs is wondering why her 11 didn't get the win.

A few went the way of the upset, but as four tipped one game, and another went to five, those did not get any extra. frown

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...1-3 this year. They didn't play this week.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Lots of upsets this week, and the paltry 39% shows it! The only highlight this week is paper_aero and Sypher, who somehow were able to jag eight of the 14 games this week; they were the only two to break 50%! Five players take a Spoon.

I had started out having San Diego winning the Monday game, but after giving up 35 straight...off a pick-six and a fumble lost for six, it turned very quickly into the Bronco's favor.

Several bonus points went out as some had no faith in the home teams...except for doomed's pick of the Titans. Every other bonus point was jagged for a road team, including the Niners agonizing defeat at the hands of the Giants...in SF! Only five games of the card had at least ten correct, and that is not good odds, even with the refs who know the rules! What happened to us all this week?? We had a reasonable reason in Week 3, but not this week!

Several places have bottlenecks, as there are five in 7th, and four in 18th.

The rest of us would like an explanation from paper_aero and doomed on their solo picks...in 50 words or less. wink

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...2-3 this year. They didn't get the call, but it doesn't matter.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)

A far cry from last week's horrible tipping. We hit paydirt on ¾ of our tips this week, and the much higher scores reflect this. Seven was the Spoon score this week, as well as default, since seven is more than six.

Both chogobad and ozfei pick up a bonus point for going 12/13, however, paper_aero also went 12/13, but as he did not pick two underdogs, he does not earn a bonus point, as noted by the * next to his name in the Hall of Fame.

If KrivoyRog had picked San Francisco (I'm sure he was looking for a solo bonus from it lol), then toocool4u, szabs, and doomed would have also gained that point as a gimme.

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...3-3 this year. He's pulled even with them. Will he eventually do better than they are? We shall see.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)

Welcome new tipper underscored, but please make sure to tip by bolding your selections.

Several players went 10/14, but four pipped them by tipping 11, and two of those three picked up a bonus point by going with Tampa Bay in the Minnesota dome. Our sole tipper, doomed, is again in the hot seat...how did he know that Cleveland would beat Philip Rivers and the Chargers? He has a 50 word limit.

Three people must have had faith in the Rams, but it didn't bear fruit, as they were the worst defeated team this week.

Comp note: since underscored tipped, MikeMaster99 moved up to the 2nd lowest score, which was 53. Where has he gone?

LeoDaVinci and KrivoyRog both had deductions for late tips, however, KrivoyRog didn't want that with the Spoon on top of it!

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...4-3 this year. He knew that the Giants had gone 3-0 in Jerry's shrine, and they kept that intact.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)

Just thought Cleveland deserved a break for a change.

Looks like paper_aero had enough of the top, and he made way for dg_dave, who solely tipped the Steelers to win in NY, and also went 12/14, gaining two bonus points for his effort. Sypher and ozfei joined him in the weekly win column this week, by also tipping 12. All of the bonus points came to these three tippers.

As for my 50 words on why I picked Pittsburgh: Eli is too inconsistent with the team, and it showed this week. smilee No one else is on the spot this week lol.

A good majority of players did score ten or more this week, and less than 25% scored under ten. The ones that did worst were Dizart and doomed, hitting paydirt on only six each. Ozzz2002 is breathing a big sigh of relief scoring seven and not earning the cutlery.

Six players would not have been bonus eligible as they picked either the card of favorites, or all bar one. Two of the "onesies" scored eleven and are scratching their heads.

We'll see how the comp organizer does against his home team...5-3 this year. He's just the opposite of his team, who are now a shoddy 3-5.

Just a reminder: if you only pick one underdog, you are ineligible for bonus points, and I know exactly how many are picked.

Any inactive tippers who tip and are below 2nd last, their score will jump to 2nd last, however, if they are above 2nd last, they will not lose points to fall to 2nd last (or the lowest active tipper)

Until next week, everyone, score a touchdown! (...and kick a P.A.T. too!)
