I play 50/50 often because all I have to do is finish in the top 50% which always seems like a lock. LOL, but I lose about as many as I win. However, its all good fun.

I even slipped outside to the mancave to see portions of the games from time to time. I entered a 50/50 contest and ranked 1st of 170. It was pretty awesome to my ego until I looked how much I won. LOL, spent 2, won $4. All-in-all, I walked away feeling pretty good. Had to put a halt on the mansion blue-prints though because, well, $4 doesn't cover it.

This morning we have 6 contestants with 3 remaining. Don't forget to get your line-ups in. With the limited amount of players to choose from this week, we could possibly be looking at some very tight scoring. Good luck to all of you!

If you have Bell as well, you might want to go edit your lineup. ;P

Seriously, you have no idea how strong my jinx is.

Then, I usually tend to select players I repeatedly read about in several articles. Sometimes, even that's not a sure thing (I've only won once in this league so that's pretty clear). My wife thinks I spend way to much time on football, and maybe she's right. But unless she takes it all off and stands in front of me, my eyes are going to be buried into the computer screen trying to put together the perfect team.

EDIT: I needed to add, that damn matchup in which I came in 1st on Thanksgiving? Well, I put it together in about 10 minutes and barely did much research. So sometimes I probably waaaaayyyyyy over think it!

Anyway, here's the injury update. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000882583/article/injuries-were-tracking-from-sundays-week-12-games

(11-26-2017, 04:32 PM)SunsetBengal Wrote: What happened is teams now have film on him, and how he is used in the Chief's offense.  The Chief's are a mystery, in general.  Between Hunt, Hill, and Kelce, they should be competing with Philly for highest scoring in the league.  Perhaps they have had OL injuries?
