Happy Columbus Day. I hope you’re all celebrating on a wooden ship and avoiding scurvy.
This weekend of football was super exciting, but this weekend of scrum was a yawn. Everyone advanced with no strikes. As the commissioner, I depend on movement in the standings to keep me entertained. I hope one of you will step up next weekend.
Denver won an ugly one against the hapless Jets in London. It was only a 2-point game, but somehow never felt in doubt. The Rams coasted over the Ravens and the Colts scraped out a win over the Cardinals. Despite my best jinxes and tortilla chip sacrifices, the Packers also coasted against the Bengals for an easy win. Hopefully next weekend’s picks will be a little spicier!
Get your week 7 picks in by Friday night. I appreciate everyone getting them in early this season! Don’t forget about the new Bye option we added for this season. I thought Gerri and Jim may need to use it for their wedding weekend, but so far nobody has felt the need to take the free pass.
Finally, in this week’s photo gallery we visit the Hergenrother’s to see what they’ve been up to the past few months. We have some Irish football, a summer wedding visit, and Charlie visiting the famous Hergie Lounge in Champaign!
That’s all for this week! If you have fun photos to share, please pass them along!
