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. ;)

    • Outlook classic is inherently better than new outlook, for a number of reasons. That said, if the only reason people need office is to read email, they should just use thunderbird.
    • Windows 11 is a big thumbs down from me. I used for a period of a few days while it was in insider and windows 10 was the main OS, and realised it wasn't for me. I am still waiting for Windows to be tolerable again, a shame as at one point I was very pro Microsoft.  
    • Classic outlook, not only does it have a much fuller feature set, it doesn't include Microsoft attempting to sync my emails from my servers to theirs. If classic outlook is ever removed from office, and the version I paid for in 2021 stops working for some reason, I'll use Thunderbird.
    • Kdenlive 26.04.2 by Razvan Serea Kdenlive is an acronym for KDE Non-Linear Video Editor. It works on GNU/Linux, Windows and BSD. Through the MLT framework, Kdenlive integrates many plugin effects for video and sound processing or creation. Furthermore Kdenlive brings a powerful titling tool, a DVD authoring (menus) solution, and can then be used as a complete studio for video creation. Kdenlive supports all of the formats supported by FFmpeg or libav (such as QuickTime, AVI, WMV, MPEG, and Flash Video, among others), and also supports 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios for both PAL, NTSC and various HD standards, including HDV and AVCHD. Video can also be exported to DV devices, or written to a DVD with chapters and a simple menu. Video editing features: Multi-track editing with a timeline and supports an unlimited number of video and audio tracks. A built-in title editor and tools to create, move, crop and delete video clips, audio clips, text clips and image clips. Ability to add custom effects and transitions. A wide range of effects and transitions. Audio signal processing capabilities include normalization, phase and pitch shifting, limiting, volume adjustment, reverb and equalization filters as well as others. Visual effects include options for masking, blue-screen, distortions, rotations, colour tools, blurring, obscuring and others. Configurable keyboard shortcuts and interface layouts. Rendering is done using a separate non-blocking process so it can be stopped, paused and restarted. Kdenlive also provides a script called the Kdenlive Builder Wizard (KBW) that compiles the latest developer version of the software and its main dependencies from source, to allow users to try to test new features and report problems on the bug tracker. Project files are stored in XML format. An archiving feature allows exporting a project among all assets into a single folder or compressed archive. Built-in audio mixer Kdenlive 26.04.2 changelog: Remove not needed actions from render info, fix rough size calculation for rendering. Fix clip sometimes not inserted in timeline when moving vertically in bin drag. Fix transcoding from clip properties. Cleanup render profile audio quality. Use percent based value for audio quality, and adjust the range accordingly per codec. Fixes bug #520750 Enforce even numbers for render width/height. Fixes bug #520737 Fix nightly flatpak - disable rnnoise until implemented. Fix missing initialization. Edit mediacapture.cpp. Fix document unnecessarily marked as modified on opening, triggering a backup request. Fix incorrect detection of missing and remote clips causing unwanted backups. Fixes issue #2194 Fix tests. Fix tmp files copied to wrong location when setting project folder. Fixes bug #467740 Fix color clips not selected on creation.

    • Here's how to watch the Xbox Games Showcase today and what to expect by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The June games showcase week has been a packed one, with everything from major presentations like Sony and Summer Game Fest to indie-focused reveals coming in almost every day. Now, it's almost time for another big one, with Microsoft bringing its Xbox Games Showcase back later today. This is a double feature too, with a Gears of War E-Day deep dive also being attached to it. For anyone wanting to tune in online, the 2026 Xbox Games Showcase is kicking off at 10 AM PT | 1 PM ET | 6 PM BST | 7 PM CEST later today, June 7. The event will be available to watch on the official Xbox YouTube (4K 60FPS), Twitch, Facebook, Steam, Amazon Live, and other portals. Separate livestreams for American Sign Language and Audio Description will also be available. "This year marks 25 years of XBOX, and this Showcase is poised to be a true celebration, offering world premieres, new gameplay, fresh updates, and more for a swathe of projects we cannot wait to share," said Microsoft about this presentation. With a new CEO behind it that is pulling off some interesting moves, Xbox may have some surprises to reveal today. New looks at first-party games like Halo Campaign Evolved from Halo studios, Fable from Playground Games, InXile Entertainment's Clockwork Revolution, Mojang's Minecraft Dungeons II, and Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 4 from Infinity Ward are to be expected here. We may finally get to see the new Blade from Arcane Studios in action and a new Persona game from Atlus at the showcase too. Surprise announcements may also arrive from other Microsoft-owned studios like Bethesda, MachineGames, Ninja Theory, Obsidian, Rare, World's Edge, or Blizzard. Considering how every new release nowadays is staying away from November and December to avoid Grand Theft Auto VI's release, any launch dates Microsoft announces will probably skip those months as well. Once the Xbox Games Showcase ends, Microsoft will immediately kick off the Gears of War: E-Day Direct. This deep dive into the upcoming prequel from The Coalition should attach gameplay footage and perhaps a release window to the highly anticipated project.
