It is time we kick off the 95th season of the NFL. Remember Tne NFL was in existence 46 years before the adoption of the Super Bowl. 2014 NFL Team Schedule For those of you who do not know how confidence ranking goes, let me explain. If we were playing an office pool,(which we ARE NOT). The object is to score the most points. To obtain the score YOU rank the teams by how confident you are a team will win its game. EXAMPLE: Say this week we have 17 games. The team you are most confident will win you would assign the number 17 and follow down to the team you are least confident in and assign that number 1. We use the Monday night game as a TIE BREAKER. The tie is broke by the closest to the total (that is the COMBINED score of the two participating tams) final score, without going over. If we were playing this is how my sheet would look; My pick will be in bold Capital letters. you can use circling, underlining, or highlighting. I will show my correct points in Bold This year I am making a change in the scoring. YOU can adopt the new scoring or continue to use the old scoring. This year we get a negative score for missed games. We will continue to get a positive score for correct predictions. EXAMPLE: LAST YEAR if you scored 1 pt on the first game and you had 15 pt on the second game you would still have a Positive 1. HOWEVER. this year the same scenario would result with a -14 score. I will fill in my picks Thursday. Until then feel free to: Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use. Or to see if you can beat me.

NFL Week 19 Divisional Playoff 01/11-12/2013
Yes I Blew it again. It is my one big weakness when it comes to the NFL Championship series. Setting aside the Kansas City Chiefs at Indianapolis Colts game which was played indoors. (Not outdoors, as Football was meant to be played). I will always fall for that old COLD FIELD advantage. The team based in a cold weather area has an advantage because they are used to playing in cold weather. Looking back it seems to be that it is a hindrance. Perhaps the cold weather team assumes it has an advantage, or the warm weather team prepares better, or both. One must also take into consideration, over the course of a season all teams play in warm climate, cold climate, and indoors. Thus I am certain, (now) the COLD FIELD,Advantage no longer exists. I will fill in my picks Friday. Until then feel free to: Just copy and paste for your own Fun Pool Use. Or to see if you can beat me.
