I can't figure out how to see my picks in text format.

When I initially submitted my entry, the picks appeared at the bottom of the screen; I copy/pasted from there.

For those who haven't followed this thread under "KFOG, But Not 10@10," here's what I picked for Week 1:

NE WAS CIN DEN HOU CAR KC SEA MIN PIT NYG SD GB STL IND PHI (49)

I doubt I'll do as well as last year; I haven't been following training camp this year and could only tell you about half of the starting quarterbacks right now.

Go to the main football pool page, click on "view my picks" and you'll see a line that has your foghead ID and all your picks in one long string of text, like so:

URTHWERM NE  WAS  CLE  DEN  BUF  NO  NYJ  JAC  MIN  PIT  NYG  SD  GB  STL  IND  PHI  46

Hey, it does have spaces! It didn't appear to on the KFOG page.

What I can't find is a page that shows everyone who's signed up in our group, and everyone's score. They didn't have that last year either--guess they haven't improved the app that much after all.

The nominees for the 2005 Roberto Clemente Award (one from each baseball team) were announced today. Oakland's nominee is Zito; for the Giants it's Noah Lowry.

Last year it did display all group members and standings. I think it populates after the first week scores are in.

They've got this hour long music pre-show on right now -- Kickoff to the season, or whatever.  The Stones just did that new song KFOG's been playing.  Jesus, Mick is old!  The line, "I used to be a rooster now I'm one of your cocks" (or however it goes) was cut.  Mick still sang it, but there was silence when he sang "cocks".  Good editing.  No vocal malfunction.

"What it Was.... Was Football"

I don't know how I managed to live to be 50 without ever hearing this famous comedy classic -- Andy Griffith before he was well-known, doing a monologue about a hick who stumbles upon his first football game.  The amazing KPIG played it this afternoon.  Here's a link to a tribute page that includes Real Audio of the bit in case you've never heard it:

I grew up listening to that.  My dad had a comedy compilation LP that also included Stan Freeberg's "John & Marcia" & Mel Brooks & Carl Reiner's "2000 Year Old Man".  And some hysterical send up of a down home preacher whose sermon text was Little Bo Peep.

I remember it well too. Long, LONG ago, KGO had a Saturday morning show that played comedy records for a couple of hours, and my dad and I would listen to it. Newhart, Mort Sahl, Smothers Bros, Tom Lehrer, Flanders & Swann, early Cosby bits, and everything Mark just mentioned too. I can't recall who did the Little Bo Peep thing, but I'm sure it was in there

At best, I'll only pickup one more win.  How pitiful is that?

I beg your pardon? I tallied the picks too (based on what was compiled on the previous page) and came up with the same totals. Only change would be if Rod got his Indy/Jags pick in and he picked Indy.

I was only reacting to an earlier post that had AVON at 9, and the two Monday pics were losers.  I didn't pay that much attention; no offense meant.

Jeez, I coulda flipped a coin and done better.  I suck!

Sadly, didn't notice until Sunday morning.

Probably I accidentally clicked the tie button.  Why they have that on there, I don't know.  Certainly, anyone purposely predicting a game is going to end in a tie should reconsider their participation....

Rats -- it doesn't work with brackets or carats.  I guess the "img" command isn't turned out.  Just as well, those things can be bandwidth drainers if they're large files ...


I found that the URL itself isn't working.

But since this is now the Serenity thread... I just came from Metreon where I saw Flightplan; Jodie's boobs ain't big but she kicks ass and takes names. Anyway, there were roving packs of Serenity geeks everywhere, women with "Joss Whedon is God" T-shirts and all.  Methinks this thing is gonna have a MUCH larger opening weekend than Universal is expecting.  And Sci-Fi Channel is showing Firefly eps.

Back to football. I now need to try and understand what Serenity is. I was out to dinner and people at the table behind me were talking about it and some other stuff on TV.

BTW: What's the outcome on Flight Plan? I saw previews. What happened to her daughter? :?:

Thanks for the warning. There are lots of things I like about the series, actually, Inara being just one. She wasn't prominently featured in every episode either, but when she was, let's just say her features were, ummm, prominent.

Saw it tonight, and enjoyed it.  It's no Star Wars, as some have written, and is a little too TV for my tastes, but it did provide a couple of hours of quality escapist entertainment; something I need right now.

Heh, thanks.  I hated going against Tommy, but NE had just come off an emotionally draining win, and the increasing defensive losses to injury were bound to catch up to them sooner or later.  They'll still win their division but they'll go out in the first round this year.

I missed weeks 2 & 3 because of travel one week & general knuckleheadedness on the part of the KFOG server the other.  The lowest combined score over those two weeks by anyone in our group was 13.  So, would y'all agree to give me at least 12 points credit (strictly for purposes of comparison)?

I know it did -- thanks a ton for doing it!  Much appreciated.  I see Geoff's a contrarian x 2 this week (SF, Dallas) while Rod's the only Giants backer and Mshray alone predicts a Nawlins resurgence after some rough weeks.

And I hope people who didn't know to get picks in before Friday's adjusted gametime aren't penalized -- that would suck.

I'm just predicting that Jamie Martin still sucks.  
And that Mike Martz' absence is not 'addition by subtraction' as many punditiots seem to think.

and Geoff is also the only one who picked Detroit.  Maybe he knows something about Garcia starting that no one else does.

This is probably the most clueless NFL season for me since the Niners started winning Super Bowls. I just kinda went down the line and hunched it out.  Garcia's starting?  Cool!

Jamie Martin was an NFL backup quarterback for 13 years (!) and yesterday was the first time he started & won a game.  How do you predict that?   Plus the refs jobbed the Saints with 2:10 to go or they mighta had a shot.

I would seriously have switched my DET & AZ picks based on other last minute QB info, except that the KC-MIA game caused picks to be locked in by Fri afternoon.  But I don't know what I was thinking picking Brett Favre to win a game in the Metrodome, that was just me being stupid.

SD was a victim of the football gods, the way the blocked FG bounced right into the Philly guy's arms in full stride.  If Matt Ware has to dive on the ground to recover that the Bolts still win that game the way their defense was playing.

Poor SD, this was the 2nd of the 4 games this season that they play a team coming off their bye week.  No other team has more than 2 & a bunch of teams don't have any.  And the Iggles are now 13-4 after their bye weeks, an NFL best; under Reid they are undefeated in such games.

Before picking the Lions, read this little ditty on Jeff Garcia (& pay attention to the modern music allegory at the end).


Jeff Garcia is this week's Vinny Testaverde.

Like Vinny a few weeks ago, Garcia played just well enough to beat a bad team last Sunday. Some Detroit fans now think he can save the season. Bob Wojnowski of the Detroit News called Garcia "one of the NFL's classic troubleshooters," adding that "maybe we have stumbled across the appropriate Lions quarterback, someone just old enough and confident enough to think he truly can make a difference." Mitch Albom was more skeptical in the Detroit Free Press. "To the winner goes the selective memory," he said of Garcia's rickety victory over the stumbling Browns.

Garcia, like Testaverde, is no season-changer. He's better than Joey Harrington, but he's a dink-and-dunker who goes into slumps and blames teammates and coaches when things go wrong. He can win with good receivers, but injuries have knocked out Detroit's fleet of former No. 1 picks. So this week, Garcia will be throwing to the likes of Scottie Vines, not to be confused with Bobby Strokes, Tommy White Stripes or Franz Ferdinand.

Lone Wolf of the week is URTH, who flies alone on two of his picks this week (and would've been THREE had I not gone with the Redskins) ...

SF AND OAK win!? FLEM GAZ and POC triumph with OAK and SF hosed us all. Who woulda thunk we'd beat Tampa Bay?

URTH, your lone ARI and KC picks didn't pan out. You and I end up on the low side with a respective 6 and 7.
8 for POC and GEOFF
9 for RGM, MSHRAY and FLEM
GAZ in the lead with 10.

We all have PIT for Monday night so the above rankings stand.

I noticed when I was making my picks that I seemed to be picking an awful lot of visiting teams, but figured I'd go with my gut anyway, for good or bad.  

Later, I checked the sports section to see what teams were favored and found that, at least according to the odds in today's Chron, only four home teams are favorites: KC, Jacksonville, Cleveland and Washington. I'm sure the results won't end up supporting that, but that sure runs counter to what I;m used to seeing.

Well.... POC suffered some broken limbs. All three. Green Bay and Mr. Favre surprised us all. Minnesota over NYG also hosed us one and all.

We are evenly split for Monday night so assuming a PIT win tonight (only minutes left), Sunday leaves us at:

10 AVON, FLEM, GEOFF

The only thing I hate about my Voice schedule is that I don't get to see all these great MNF games!  It pains me to see the Eagles lose in such a way, especially to Dallas -- T.O.'s surely using up all his long-distance minutes on the call to Dr. Schadenfreude.

And don't forget -- get picks in early next week so you don't miss the Thanksgiving Day games!

Props to Geoff for putting a link to the KFOG football pool page on our main forum index page (adjacent to the Stream of Consciousness thread, if you haven't noticed). Anything to save a few clicks and keystrokes.

Another week down.We all lost with STL and PIT. Hope pays off (OAK) for Rod and POC. SF had a shot but it was not to be. AND, Indy holds on for 10-0. I thought for sure they'd give one up this week. Go Indy, go!  At 45-17, KC seems like a given so at the end of Sunday night, here we are:

10 FLEM, GEOFF, MSHRAY, URTH
9 AVON
8 GAZ
7 RGM
6 POC (SF and HOU hope let you down)

We are evenly split for Monday on MIN and GB.
Until tomorrow.....

Mr. Favre almost did it again.

The week ends with

11 GEOFF, MSHRAY (a very respectable week!)
10 AVON, FLEM, URTH
8 GAZ
7 POC, RGM

Question for next week, can IND keep it going? I might have to jump on that bandwagon.

Apropos of nothing to do with the dictionary (or football), but did you happen to mouse over the ad at the top of the page for Liz Phair's new record. RRROWWRRrrr!! The uncropped version of the picture, while not x-rated, is much more, umm, provocative. Too bad the song that it's promoting is sort of a Sheryl Crow retread.

I have two that are different, and don't feel good about either of them.  Feel even worse about picking SD this week, but the Raiders are DEAD TO ME now.  Until they bench Collins, anyway.  Or the next home game.  Losing to Miami was just pathetic.

Weird week, picking the Ninnies but not the Raiders.

Gotta say, I was amazed to have second week of 14 winners, but seeing as our group as a whole ('ceptin' POC--sorry, Toots!) got 12 or better, it must have been a good week for the favorites (just like my last good showing). Not counting on that success continuing next week, but for good or bad, here's my pix.

URTHWERM PIT  CIN  TEN  IND  NE  OAK  MIN  CAR  NYG  SEA  WAS  DEN  KC  SD  GB  ATL  44

Varied from the conventional wisdom with just one pick--KC over Dallas.

In overall points, we've got a tight little group--five of us are within 5 points of each other, with four weeks to play.

So far Geoff and POC lead the pack. POC has the solo win on MIA over SD. Mr. Favre is trying hard right now to gain a GB lead. Still 13-10.

Indeed. I had Detroit but am still happy with the outcome. Second OT game today. Had I KNOWN that Detroit hadn't won in GB since 1991 (I think that's what I heard) I might have gone for GB!

I missed all the football games yesterday, was playing golf in San Mateo.  Came back to the clubhouse to hear Niners lost 41-3; couldn't say I was surprised.

I got back to the clubhouse in time to see the second half of the Raiders losing to the J-E-T-S jetsjetsjets.

The Jets.

Check the RIP thread, Colts coach Tony Dungy will not be with the team in Seattle on Saturday, as his 18-yr old son died early this morning in Tampa.  Very sad.

I have no idea what effect this will have on the game, but it's gotta have some profound effects one way or another.

Contrarily, I expect Dungy will take the week off but the rest of the team will carry on as normal.  Sorry if I'm being callous, but I don't assume anyone on the team has that close a relationship with Jimmy, nor with Tony D to the extent that they would feel connected to his family.  Again, sorry to be callous, but pro athletes often lose loved ones before games and simply keep silent about it because they feel their job demands it.  Billy Bean, the only "out" alumni MLB player, played the day after his partner died.

It will affect individuals profoundly, but not the game.

Totally off-topic, but there are a few of the evergreen Xmas tunes that I haven't heard this year (partially due to the lack of the Xmas card set), the Cheech and Chong bit being just one. Only heard the tag end of the Waitresses Christmas Wrapping on KFOG just prior to a 10@10 earlier in the week. And I can't recall if I've heard Greg Lake's Father Christmas either.

On the other hand, I've been completely deluged by "The Man With The Bag." Is it just me, or did that song come completely out of nowhere? I don't recall EVER hearing it before a couple years ago, and now it's on 24-7--was it in a Gap commercial or something?

Where else have you heard it besides on the "Xmas in Frisko" stream?  That's the only place I've heard it -- of course, thanks to them, I've also heard more of the Partridge Family Christmas Card in the past week than I had in the previous 30 years!

Somebody (Ginger? Rob?) played the Greg Lake this week, but I've been getting most of my Xmas music from KPIG this year.

No shit. Quite a nice win for them tho. Exciting at the very end.While I didn't pick them, They're still my home team so a win is good.

While we're talking sports, last night at the Sharks game, I saw a shootout for the first time. Last season a tie game just ended. Now we had OT and when that was still tied 1-1, there was a shootout. Sharks lost but it was great. Only one fight :(

My picks for this week sure sucked today, 6 for 13.
Nice work POC, lone wolfed DAL and SF and won. Mshrays CLE and HOU solo picks did not pan out. He's alone on the Jets, yet to play.


I should get some credit for the WASH-ARIZ-KC trifecta though, nobody else got more than one of those 3.  I really wanted to pick BAL put couldn't force myself & I regretted the NYJ pick as soon as I made it.  HOU played tough for 3 qtrs, but my new friends in CLE who assured me that they'd give the Stillers a tough time are NOT getting anything from me for Christmas.

Getting this out of the way early this week.  

FLEM59 SD  NYG  IND  CLE  NYJ  CAR  CHI  KC  PIT  NE  TB  SF  JAC  SEA  WAS  DAL  48

This season can't end soon enough for this Raider fan...

URTH  SD  NYG  IND  BAL  BUF  CAR  MIN  CIN  PIT  MIA  TB  SF  JAC  SEA  WAS  DAL  47

I'm 6 points behind Rod, so am hopelessly out of the running for bragging rights among the group this season, but a couple of folks have an outside chance.

I differ from Rod in only 4 places, so I'd need a miracle to catch up with him.

The standings as of Week 16 are:
FLEM59 = 159
AVON2000 = 156
GEOFFGOULD = 155
RGMIKESF = 155
URTHWERM = 153
GAZ15 = 147
MSHRAY = 129
PRINCESSOFCAIRO = 129

(disclaimer: Mark and Amelia lost, I believe, two weeks each to snafus and/or not getting picks in on time)

So being 12 points behind everyone and having no pride to play for, I'm going to pick the one I think will lose for each one.  If I controvert the consensus, I can't not fail!

I'll be there too on the 7th, with my Mom. We are in 213, row 12, seat 14/15. Pretty high up. I just got tix yesterday for MLK day game against the Tampa Bay Lightning. Nose bleed for that game, row 18 I think!
Want to meet up there next Saturday for a quick howdy? Music was awesome last game I went to on 12/23. Lotsa Metallica and some AC/DC at the pre-game warm up. Social Distortion (I think) too.

She's shopped in the husky section.  But she doesn't look bad at all.  That's a cruel joke.

Speaking of cruel jokes: Debora Iyall of Romeo Void wrote the Voice an angry letter this week: We'd insensitively called a film review "Sex and the Single Squaw," and she, being native, called us out on it.  I had to explain to everyone in copy who she was, and had to admit why I remember her name: not because of her hits so much, but because the first time I ever heard of the band, it was in a brief news blurb-article (Rolling Stone, I think) about how she was hit in the face onstage with a donut by some asshole with the same issues as that DJ, and stormed off the stage.

But enough of that.  Here's our final week's picks:

Here's some insight to why I fared so poorly.  I decided to check out my old picks and see what the standing would have looked like had I been right every time.  As you can see, it was stubborn and unwarranted support of a few teams that screwed me up.  Actual records in parentheses following my calcs.

NFC South:

CAR 12-4 (11-5)
TB 8-8 (11-5)
ATL 8-8 (8-8)
NO 8-8 (3-13)

NFC West:

STL 11-5 (6-10)
SEA 10-6 (13-3)
ARI 8-8 (5-11)
SFG 0-16 (4-12)

AFC East:

NEP 14-2 (10-6)
MIA 6-10 (9-7)
BUF 3-13 (5-11)
NYJ 1-15 (4-12)

AFC North:

CIN 13-3 (11-5)
PIT 11-5 (11-5)
BAL 6-10 (6-10)
CLE 3-13 (6-10)

AFC South:

IND 13-3 (14-2)
JAX 8-8 (12-4)
TEN 7-9 (4-12)
HOU 3-13 (2-14)

AFC West:

It's weird, 'cause there's a link to "week 18" which takes you to that "the season is over" message.  But congrats to "MumbleyJoe" who won the season with 191 points.

I am getting the message that "THE SEASON IS OVER."  Were any of you able to submit playoff picks?
I even heard Peter talk about it on the radio, but I guess the lawyers probably said "you said it was going to end Jan 1, and you can't extend the rules now!"
It's weird, 'cause there's a link to "week 18" which takes you to that "the season is over" message.  But congrats to "MumbleyJoe" who won the season with 191 points.

Peter and Rene got their pix in before they turned it off!

I was so busy yesterday, I forgot there was even some games.  Today, I get home to watch some of the very sloppy second half of the Giants-Panthers game.  Not so good.

I'll be in, but I don't have time to put our league together.
