ROL - Change my MNF pick to CHI by 3

I'm going to live or die with my team! Chicago weather... make Dallas wish they were home.

Here's the current standings going into MNF. Should be easy to see who the top five will be regardless of who wins MNF.

13 wins
Superchunk - CHI
burninmylight - CHI
zelhawks37 - CHI

Levil1death - DAL

12 wins
arcane_chaose - CHI
zuvuyeay - CHI

Blacksaber - DAL
ljigga - DAL
mendicate bias - DAL
rolstoppable - DAL

GO BEARS!!!

The standings you posted are correct, except...

The change of your prediction violates the following rule:

2.5 Changing Your Predictions: As pointed out in 2.1, you are allowed to change your predictions before a deadline. You must make a new post (or send me a PM) for it to be accepted. However, you are NOT allowed to force a tie in the weekly results with a change. The spreadsheet with everyone's predictions can be viewed by everyone and after the second batch of Sunday games someone might want to adjust their Sunday Night and Monday Night predictions to be in a more favorable position for the tie-breaker. This is a gamble in and of itself, because the chances to gain are usually equal to the chances to lose, hence why it is allowed. Taking the safe path and forcing a tie will not be accepted, so your initial prediction will remain intact with or without my notice.

As such, your "DAL by 6" pick stands until you submit a prediction that is NOT "CHI by 3" or "DAL by 4". Everything else is fair game.

EDIT: Oh, and good job by the Saints. Not quite the 38-24 win I predicted last week, but close enough.

AH didn't catch that. No problem, make it CHI by 2. Thanks Rol.

I wish the Broncos were not doing two Thursday night games this year. A short week followed by a long week.

I am going to predict Peyton is trying to beat Brady's Touchdown record. I think he will get at least 3 touchdowns versus the the Chargers. Even with probably missing Wes Welker, he has so many weapons.

I am concerned with Welker getting so many concussions within a short time as when they start happening concussions only become easier to happen from then on out.

What's the weather in Chicago for today? Is it just going to be really cold?



NobleTeam360 on 09 December 2013

Not looking good for Dallas so far.



NobleTeam360 on 09 December 2013

Well I'm not picking Dallas to win anymore games other than maybe the Washington game.

Great win by the Bears tonight go Packers next week and go Eagles in three weeks.

What happened to the "Yay, no Aaron Rodgers!"?

Did you see what a backup QB just did to our defense? They made him look like the next coming of Peyton Manning or Drew Brees. I have no doubt in my mind that Flynn can easily pick apart our defense. 45-21 will be the final score in the Cowboys vs Packers game.
