Good times.

Onward through the fog, lmao. Sound like Pday over at the hoop. I believe he used that term when dealing with Foreskin trolls.

And I use it to troll him. Just because it pisses him off.

Nice comeback! Glad to see guys who didn't have a great first week, hanging in there. Both you and Devassa got 12 this week, after getting 5 last week, and are now tied for 11th place.

Back up on top I see! Only two with 12, and you are in the top 1% of all espn participants. The people with 19 are in the top 2.2% and the people with 18 are in the top 4.7%.

Looks like you took week 3. Only one guy can catch you if he wins and you lose tonight.

After week 3, the overall leader is Rehooley, who had 29 correct, with Froob and YogurtProducer with 28.

5 with 26, 4 with 25, 8 with 24 and also 8 with 23.

Howard Mass (the Commish) had 22, as did I.

Only two people have Beat the Commish all three weeks so far; Turco (who had 26 total correct after week 3) and Yogurt Producer (mentioned above).

Good luck with your picks this week!

I think you get to use cuss words for a week without them getting zapped.

Wish I had trusted my algorithm in Week 1 -- would be at 39-24 instead of 35-28. I thought it would take a few weeks of 2016-17 data before it was accurate but it's been pretty good so far. Now it gets tricky again... need to start incorporating 2016-17 data and blending it with the 2015-16 data set.

Good luck in week 5 all!

Surprised I'm tied 1st, hasn't been my best season hah. Can't wait to take over as commish, first rule I'm putting in is all cell phones and email records will be handed over or a perma ban will be handed down.
