Yes, kolohekeiki has opened up a two point lead over c4ndlelight and vbshrink . But the top 19 PTW contestants are within two picks of each other and the contest has another seven weeks ro run, so anything goes! |

I had to just use the Massey match-up function and trust it. Who knows? Week 3 I guessed some upsets and splits right and still did not win. Last week I was abysmal. The wheels are coming off the bus.

Basketball is no different, unfortunately. 😩 LOL. vbprisoner used to do that and go the opposite way as me on all the 50/50 match-ups. It worked for him because of my PTW curse. Seriously, if you want to lose 16-18 in the 5th, have me pick your team. |
