  2.  9-7    ~ Cynthia
  3.  5-11   ~ Betty Jean

 

 

 

Man...The first week of picks is pretty much a toss up for me.  I chose the home team in several instances only because I think there should be a rule that the first home game for every team should be a win!  I almost forgot to make the picks - not on football time yet I guess.  :)

Hello everyone and thank you Joy for doing this again. You’re a sweetheart.  Hope your doing well. Congratulations Cyn on your marriage. Things have been crazy here but I still don’t know how I missed your message saying you tied the knot. I wish you a wonderful, happy life with your honey! 

Meanwhile here in NJ, I did a number on my leg when I walked into a dang spider web last week. I freaked out & jumped around so much I hurt my calf.  All week I was hopping around till my husband insisted I go to a dr and I find I actually tore a tendon over a darn spider. And today an MRI shows I might even have worse problems with blood collecting there and I might need surgery. So mad at myself for this!  But I am so happy that it’s football picking time again...seriously, this cheers me up so much. I had been feeling pretty bad about the leg thing.

Good luck with your teams everyone!

Congrats Joy on your team win. Brady is in fine form again.  Cyn, what can I say. What a game! Hope you weren’t too disappointed.  But at least you can be excited with your Bears this year.  They look to be one of the most improved teams in the league. Your guys were so dang close to beating Rodgers in GB in their season opener.  That’s nuts.

Bettyjean the beginning of the game went well then the bottom dropped out. Trubisky and Mack made an impression on me. Onto next Monday nites game. Sorry for ur teams loss. It can b frustrating huh? But a lot of crazy games huh? My son was disappointed his saints lost. Then that Steelers/Browns game. Definitely an interesting start to the season! Hope ur not gonna b effected by hurricane Florence?

There is a lot of ink spilled in Dallas over the cowboy's loss to Carolina. The cow's offense seems to be missing a tight end and receivers. Jason Witten retired and Dez shown the door. Looks like that talent is harder to replace than they thought. And their new and cheaper place kicker missed a field goal.
