Very interesting Monday Night here in our league.

NO wins and #1 is insomniac with score determined between amp, boneark, rol, and zuv.
PHI wins and #1 is superchunk, #2 insomniac, 3/4 ljigga/mend (score dependent) and #5 being amp.

I'll change my prediction for MNF to 20-38 for New Orleans.

I didn't expect to have a chance at the top 5 this week, so I predicted out of spite against my most hated NFC team. I also didn't know that Sproles is injured when I made my original prediction and the Saints defense is obviously trash. Still predicting a blowout, but not by a margin that could screw me over in case of a Saints win by 21 points (as my 3-45 prediction would).

I'm sorry Rol, but I have to object here.  There was a similar stiuation a couple of week ago when I picked the Bears to defeat the Lions 37-13 as a joke since that was the score they defeated them by last time and honestly didn't think that would be the score, but I didn't whine about changing the MNF score at the time because that would be a disingenous way to try to pick up PP.  I think that after the first batch of Sunday games start, that no one should be able to change anything.

Whoa.  Whoa.  Whoa.  The Eagles are your most hated NFC team?  Hand in your Packers fan card now.  Never have I ever heard a REAL Packers fan say that they EVER hate ANY team more than the Bears.  You obviously don't know anything about how Bears and Packers fans feel about the opposing teams.  I'll tell you right now that there is no team that makes me want to projectile vomit like the Packers.  When I see the colors yellow and green anywhere close to each other I let a profanity laced tirade about Aaron Rodgers and Clay Matthews loose.
