Thanks! My first time winning a week!

I've been playing NFL pick'em for a few years in other groups and this is by far the most enjoyable and most competitive.

Happy Holidays :)

Thanks! I look forward to this more than any other 'contest' we have going. Don't complicate it with spread or anything crappy like that...

Although next year, I am gonna throw in a bit of a twist....

Every week we will either select or let you select a game that will be the stone cold lead pipe lock. For example, one game a week you pick a game and say this one is a can't miss.......and we will keep track of how you did in that regard, too... I just need to figure out the logistics of it.

Atlanta at Tampa Bay

Buffalo at Cincinnati

Dallas at Carolina

Detroit at New Orleans

Jacksonville at Houston

NY Giants at Washington

Pittsburgh at Cleveland

San Diego at Kansas City

San Francisco at St. Louis

Tennessee at Miami

Philadelphia at Arizona

Indianapolis at Seattle

Oakland at Denver

Chicago at Green Bay

Minnesota at Baltimore

New England at NY Jets - 45

:angry: damnit !!!!! :pinch: :pinch: :cry: Stupid stupid stupid stupid roughing the kicker penalty!!! Man we had the freakin game won! gah! Great way to ruin my Christmas Dallas!!!!! :crazy: @!7%($*>_< :angry:

doing a little better than you D!ABOL!C I have 4 wins :wacko: :wacko: :p

:D

Actually, they may have ruined your year. If they lose to Atlanta next week....it's bye bye playoffs.

Since everyone picked the Pats to win tomorrow, it all comes down to the points, and it's a close race.

You all get +1 win when if the Pats win tomorrow.

This week's games...in no particular order:

New England at Denver

Washington at Seattle

Carolina at Chicago

Pittsburgh at Indianapolis 55 points

'date='Jan 9 2006, 12:27' post='587040143']

I like that Denver pick BOOG. (Y) ;)

Well, this weeks picks in my opinion are easy.

Denver doesn't lose much at home, and NE's win over the Jags shouldn't be viewed as all that impressive. The Jags aren't a real good team.

Seattle won't have any problem with Washington....which is the worst team ever to make it into the playoffs.....ugh...what an ugly team.

Carolina Chicago is the toughest of all....depending on which team Carolina chooses to be.

Indy's pretty much going to beat anyone they play.

The last game is Carolina at Chicago, BOOG. Not Pitt-Indy. Pitt-Indy is the early game on Sunday.

Also, the Redskins game is before the Patriots game.

My picks:

Washington at Seattle

New England at Denver

Pittsburgh at Indianapolis

Carolina at Chicago- 30

This week's games...in no particular order:

The game for the points is the Pitt/Indy game. Not the Chicago/Carolina game.

You can't really pass me, though. Because I missed the first 2 weeks, I own the tiebreaker over everyone. I think your best bet is to predict 75 points, hope it happens, and hope I predict like 30.

That's where you are mistaken, yisman-san. Tiebreakers were for people in it from week one. ;)

    • OpenAI is now rolling out Lockdown Mode to more ChatGPT users by Pradeep Viswanathan Back in February, OpenAI first announced Lockdown Mode for users who want the most comprehensive protection from potential attacks. At the time of the announcement, the company mentioned that this feature was available to a small set of highly security-conscious users, including executives or security teams at leading organizations. Today, OpenAI announced that Lockdown Mode is now rolling out to all personal ChatGPT accounts, including Free, Go, Plus, and Pro, and also self-serve ChatGPT Business accounts. Users can enable the feature from ChatGPT Settings > Security when it is available for their account. When Lockdown Mode is enabled, ChatGPT limits or disables several features that connect to the web or external services. These include live web browsing, Deep Research, Agent Mode, and more. Here is the complete list of services that will be disabled in Lockdown Mode: Live web browsing: Web browsing is limited to accessing only cached content. Search results may be limited, unavailable, or stale. Image support: ChatGPT may not display images in regular responses or retrieve images from the web. Users can still upload image files, and image generation remains available where it is otherwise available. Deep research: Deep research is disabled. Agent mode: Agent mode is disabled. Canvas networking: Users cannot approve Canvas-generated code to access the network. File downloads: ChatGPT cannot download files for data analysis. ChatGPT can still operate on your manually uploaded files. It is important to note that Lockdown Mode does not completely block prompt injections from appearing in content that ChatGPT processes. For example, a malicious instruction could still be present in an uploaded file or cached web content. However, the mode is designed to reduce the ways such an attack could send sensitive information outside the conversation. Along with Lockdown Mode, OpenAI today also announced that the Active sessions feature is now available across ChatGPT accounts and workspace types. This feature allows users to review where their account is signed in across devices and end sessions if required. A session will have the following information displayed: Device or browser information. First-party app context, such as ChatGPT, Codex, or API Platform. Approximate location. Sign-in date and time. Whether the device is a trusted device. Whether it is your current session. OpenAI highlighted that the Active sessions feature will not be available for accounts linked to an organization’s single sign-on setup, including SAML or OIDC.
    • with LSTC and ESU, moving to w11 or linux because w10 suddenly will not work when in reality it works and its a better choice, of course there are also developers that only test in 11 or force you to have TPM and Secure boot for the sake of "better security" in games. or most likely people is buying new PC that only ship with 11
    • with LTSC and ESU there are still viable as a stable platform not that they care and let people deal with w11 crashing and burning every month support mean shet if the platform is trash
    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.
