Tour2ma Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Well I created the drama myself and gave everyone a 3-game pick present for the holiday. I got distracted by delicious food and alcohol and forgot to put in my Thursday picks. I'll make up for it tomorrow though! Fixed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zombo Posted December 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 And DOWN the stretch they come! JRB is trying to go wire to wire, holding on to slim 3 game lead over Browns Board Legends Peen and Furnier. And here comes Kamac and Marko on the outside ... and ... is it ... yes, last year's champion Ralemon is driving hard along the rail. Going to be a Fantastic Finish!

The Gipper Posted December 29, 2014 Report Share Posted December 29, 2014 Peen and Furnier entwined like the kids from Paradise from the Dashboard Light? I just want to know before they go any further....do they love each other? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Furnier Posted December 30, 2014 Report Share Posted December 30, 2014 Peen and Furnier entwined like the kids from Paradise from the Dashboard Light? I just want to know before they go any further....do they love each other? Hey now! Although I think highly of him....he isn't really my type. Besides....it would appear he is entwined with JRB.

OK, well, I wanna know right now....will he love him forever. Or is he waiting for the end of time to hurry up and arrive? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombo Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Only The Great Zomboni went a perfect 4-4 this week, and actually I am a little hurt ... I gave you the answers! No one believed me. Overall Peen and Jrb are still in lock step withh a desperate crowd behind them. Four picks this week, last time to gain real ground ... 1 jrb12711 136 136-120 2 Peen 136 136-120 3 Kamac19 134 134-122 4 Furnier 133 133-123 5 ralemon 131 131-125 6 Browns57 131 131-125 7 Tour's Prescient Pigskin Picks 131 131-125 8 Mark O 130 130-126 9 G-man 130 130-126 10 millersc 129 129-127 11 Endymion 128 128-128 12 Team Whoop Ass 128 128-128 13 Ballantyne Buckingpickeroos 125 125-131 14 The Great Zomboni 122 122-134 15 Howie 122 122-134 16 LondonBrown 122 122-134 17 Bink's 122 122-134 18 Mike Honcho's Hunches 121 121-135 19 TexasBrownsFan 119 119-137 20 Browns149 116 116-140 21 xXDaBuckeyeXx 116 116-140 22 MLD Woody 114 114-142 23 sgt2815 112 112-144 24 Sir Barksalot 83 83-173 25 50 shades of ray 72 72-184 26 DieHardBrownsFan 61 61-195 27 Berean 60 60-196 28 Comeonman 55 55-201 29 Thriller 41 41-215 30 Everlastingxxx 38 38-218 31 Cookies 37 37-219 32 Adoug319 27 27-169 33 Mr. Make-Believe 21 21-235 34 purplepantywaste 14 14-82 35 utzie 12 12-244 36 toranagagippersan 11 11-112 37 Jimmy Haslam 0 0-256 37 joeeagles36 0 0-256 37 turkeyjoe 0 0-256 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombo Posted January 11, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2015 Peen and JRB split the first day, still deadlocked, three games ahead of everyone else. Hopefully they are betting along with The Great Zomboni today, who is 6-0 in the playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrb12711 Posted January 13, 2015 Report Share Posted January 13, 2015 close shave here! I'm going to be out of town this weekend so just for anticipation I'll write here that I'm taking Green Bay to beat the spread(although I think they lose) and New England to cover.

kamac19 Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Yeah well done JRB, after you posted your picks the other day, I had to go all out and pick the opposite of what you said you picked just to try and catch you before the SuperBowl, I done better than usual and least have bragging rights compared with Zombo,Marko,G-Man and Howie.

Tour2ma Posted January 21, 2015 Report Share Posted January 21, 2015 Well done, jrb, well done... Great early season, including the top weekly of 13, and a good enough end. Coming for ya next year...

ballpeen Posted January 22, 2015 Report Share Posted January 22, 2015 Thanks man, and props to you for more or less picking these before the season started and getting second place. That's pretty impressive. Thanks. Make no mistake, I tend to things each week and make adjustments. I just do it all at the beginning of the season because in the past there has been a week or two I forgot to make my picks in time. If you take a 0-16 week, you might as well hang it up. You are going to have to hit a couple of 12-4 weeks just to break even, and as you know, 12-4 weeks don't happen very often. There was 1 week this year I failed to make my picks. Rather than no wins, I got 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, if it makes you all feel any better the time I actually had a chance to win money on games in Vegas this season I failed miserably haha. I went in so confident too based on my steady lead and bam! total failure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrb12711 Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I had a super long acceptance speech prepared (kidding, of course) but I will just say I had a lot of fun doing this. I'll be back to repeat next season! Fun Fact-2014 set the record for gambling losses by betters in Las Vegas this year, with a huge chunk of that being NFL games.
