Lombardi Handicappers League

I saw I had 8. It never occurred to me that might win the week.

I saw I had 8. It never occurred to me that might win the week.

As a wise man once said:

All but one of us are pretty bad at this.

Just takes the one having an off week (for him) and falling back towards the rest of us.

[ColdWizard]

And actually, eight has won the week three times this season. This week nine is more than enough as rah finishes second with seven and Johnny finishes in a three way tie for third with six. -Jr closes to nine points behind the leader and I manage to keep pace seven points back.

[rah]

Did better here than in any of the confidence pools where I think I set records for frustration.

[Jonny]

Time will tell if this is the beginning of my regression to the mean -- given how mediocre I usually am at this game, it could be a good sign for y'all.

[ColdWizard]

If you average 6 per week for the rest of the season, you'll knock Sloww out of having the 5th highest winning score of all time (or back to 2003).

[ColdWizard]

Pick reminder for Berz, gjramsey, and Demonbinder. I've convinced myself that Jonny is nigh uncatchable, so make your picks to stay ahead of Ming.

[ColdWizard]

Everyone picked NE, so Berz wins the week with either 11 or 12 into 4th place, nine points behind the leader. -Jr and I close the gap on Jonny by one.

[Demonbinder]

Week 10 stopped any chances to catch Jonny. One of my worst weeks ever. Much better this week but Berz had his best week.

[SlowwHand]

Berz had children of the corn whispering advice to him.

[ColdWizard]

12:30 kick for Turkey day and 3 games, so pick reminder for -Jrabbit and gjramsey.

[HellenAllen]

Week 10 stopped any chances to catch Jonny. One of my worst weeks ever. Much better this week but Berz had his best week.

Everything will be ok!

[ColdWizard]

demonbinder wins the week outright with 10, so apparently the spammer was correct. Jonny posts a solid 8, and extends his lead to 9 over me and -Jr, while Berz lurks at 10 back.

[ColdWizard]

Since everyone still active has made picks, I'll just repost the standings:

Pos.      Player      Score      Avg    Weeks won
1	Jonny11788	99	 8.25     5
2	ColdWizard	90	 7.5      1
2	[TRU] Jrabbit	90	 7.5      2
4	Berzerker[TRU]	89	 7.42     1
5	rah	        87	 7.25     1
6	Demonbinder	86	 7.17     2
7	Ming	        82	 6.83     0
8	Sloww Hand	81	 6.75     0
9	gjramsey	67	 6.7      0
10	Tuberski	11	11.0      0

Wherein average discards weeks where the player did not participate. The league average is 7.31.

Also, Ming has changed the game from last week's "Stay ahead of Ming" to "Stay ahead of SlowwHand" (my personal favorite).

If we retroactively add in the game of Weekly Winners: Jonny vs the Field, the Field has surged ahead over the past 3 weeks to 7-5 from 4-5.

[-Jrabbit]

Sounds like Jonny is due for a good week.

Well, either that or he's regressing to the mean...
