Hello again! I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend. We had a good time seeing some of the crew in Kansas City.
Another week is in the books! The Bears hot streak cooled off dramatically while the Packers remembered they have a good team. The Packers rolled over the Bears which upended the pool as only two smart players picked Green Bay. The Bills beat the Rams in an overtime nail-biter Monday night which was a very fun game to watch. And finally, the Ice Bowl won by a landslide (avalanche?) over the Fog Bowl 14-3.
Here are a couple more comments in favor of the Ice Bowl
- “If I was going to watch one of these two games, the only one that I could truly see would be the Ice Bowl. No one SAW the Fog Bowl!“
- “… and STOP, collaborate and listen… ice, ice, baby”
Here are the results from Week 5. We had two players battling for the perfect score last night and Calvin won out. Congratulations on a fantastic week!
Unfortunately, your friendly commissioner and son were both delivered stale donuts for two fat zeros. What a bummer!
Two weeks through, the standings are still fresh a few people have risen to the top. The rest of us have some work to do this week.
For week 6 we have three new matchups to pick. We will do the Sunday morning game which features the Texans and Jaguars from London UK. Then we’ll catch the inconsistent but talented Cowboys take on the inconsistent but talented Packers in Green Bay on Sunday night.
Our unfortunate scenario of the week pays homage to the London game which features Toro the bull from Houston and Jaxson deVille the jaguar from Jacksonville. We set aside the puffy mascots and will use the live animals. If you found yourself trapped in a locked English pub with one of these animals, which would you prefer? An angry bull or a hungry jaguar? Bulls like to charge. Jaguars like to hunt. Neither option is ideal for the average tourist.
Match-ups:
- Houston @ Jacksonville (London)
- Dallas @ Green Bay
- Trapped in a pub with one… angry bull or hungry jaguar? Why?
Get your picks in by Friday night. Thanks to everyone who have sent in their ten bucks. If you are still sitting on a crisp Hamilton, it’s time to pay up!
cheers!
Kevin
