Hello Footballers,
Everybody doing ok? If we all thought that New England and Pittsburgh were sure things in previous weeks, we surely thought those double digit spreads for Denver and Atlanta were money in the bank.
But, not so fast!
The only two players to survive the week were Aunt Mary and Molly Hergenrother! And, those two losses, plus the loss of KC to Pittsburgh and spelled the end of the road for Adam, Emily, Howie, Joel, Stephanie, Tyler and Dan. Boom! Charlie H., Gerri and team Sherburne also all sustained their first strike, leaving Mary as the only perfect picker after a mere 6 weeks. This is what Mary is thinking:
Not as easy as it looks, is it? Well done to Mary and her bold pick of the Redskins. Nice work to both her and Molly for surviving a very crazy week.
So, for you 5 remaining players….game on! Thursday night’s game is Raiders and Chiefs, so if you want to pick that one, make sure you get it in before kick off, otherwise, by end of day Friday.
This weeks pictures bring you a few of our own family athletes….Gabe Carter – football player extraordinaire, and Whoosie – who completed the Des Moines half marathon and finished 4th of 17 in her age group. Woo-hoo to you both!

I talked with Whoosie last night and offered her congratulations on her 1/2 marathon. That is very impressive.
I ran from the couch to the refrigerator and back twice in one hour and hardly broke a sweat, if all goes well I will be up to four trips in two hours!!
