Not to rain on Scott's parade....However, it's easy to base all your picks on the betting line, picking the favorites each week. Especially when the point spread isn't involved.

Final results from Week 13: -Scott 16 & 0 -Vic 14 & 2 -Chris 14 & 2 -Brian 14 & 2 -Pete 14 & 2 -Mark Zalepa 13 & 3 -Mark Evans 12 & 4 -Jay 11 & 5 -Kurt 11 & 5 -Joe 10 & 6 Favs don't win everygame

Come on Scott, are you saying that all season long you didn't post your picks based on the betting line?

Sure I have to go with the big Favs on a straight up pick, but my winning % was 70.3 during the reg season and the NFL Favorites won at a 56.3 % so I picked more dogs then you think. Also the 16-0 week I picked 2 dogs and had two games that were a (0pts) pickim , so I didn't just open the paper. I'm not saying that I didn't get lucky on some games ( 2 games I won in the late 4th in week 13 to make me 16-0) but we all need luck.

When you say favorites winning 56.3%. That number sounds like it is against the spread.

How does the pool work? I'm interested. Basically, everyone posts their picks for the week, before the start of the first game. Straight up, no points involved, except for Monday Night which you post your guess for total points scored. I update the standings each week based on your winning percentage. Very simple and easy. I only ask that you finish the season if you start it. All games are included, including the Pro-Bowl (but not preseason - who the heck pays attention to that?) Here is an example: teammaine.proboards107.com/index.cgi?board=offtopic&action=display&thread=1133876349
