I notice Carr is in for Carolina. Was Delhomme injured, or benched?

I lose again. First time I've ever started 0-3. First time I've ever been three games under .500, too, I think.

Marlins tie it in the 9th!

Wow, San Diego's not going to even make the playoffs this year.

Randy Moss could break every single-season receiving record there is this season. Brady-to-Moss is looking unstoppable.

Incorrect thread.

I was talking about correct picks made against you.

Can the Pats cover the spread now? Sure looks like it.

Yeah, because you'd drop right to the bottom of the picks against category, which still counts for a little bit. As an example, someone who's first in wins and correct picks, but last in correct picks against (.65+.3+2.0=2.95), would be ranked behind someone who's third in wins and correct picks, but first in correct picks against (1.95+.9+.05=2.9). It's what's kept me out of the top two each of the past two seasons.

This is bad. The Eagles are going to want to wear these unis every week after this game. 42-21 Eagles with 1:49 left in the first half.

Hiring Norv Turner was such a genius move for the Chargers front office, wasn't it?

Do you live near Houston? Because Fox isn't allowed to show any games when a home team is playing on CBS. Well I live in Houston, so I guess that explains why I can't get a Fox game. Was there a blurb I missed somewhere that went into a deeper explanation of that? It's part of the TV contract. Stations in the 32 team markets are not allowed to air a game if the other network has a local team's home game at the same time. Instead, they have to air one in the other timeslot. So you'll get Giants/Redskins on Fox at 4:00.

Well then. Edwards leads Buffalo right down the field for a TD.

Here's the Eagles' bizarre uniform for anyone who hasn't seen it.

Holy shit, those are DISGUSTING.

7-0 Houston already. Indy was offside on the opening kickoff, so they rekicked and Jerome Mathis took it to the house.

Not as lopsided as I was expecting this week: New England - 9 Pittsburgh - 5 Baltimore - 2 Carolina - 1 New Orleans - 1 (WTF?) Washington - 1

A one-win difference between teams becomes less and less important as the season goes on. I'm also lower than Edwin despite beating him in Week 2, probably because people are picking worse against me overall. Lopsided victories kill you in this contest.

Brohm's chances of winning the Heisman are pretty close to zero at this point. As for the other three, Brennan plays for a ranked and nationally visible team, while the other two don't. I don't think it's much more complex than that.

Yeah, but is that good for Sabathia, or good for Beckett? Sabathia started four more games and still has fewer wins. Of course wins aren't everything, but with four more starts and forty more innings, Sabathia's other numbers should be considerably better in order to beat out Beckett. Frankly, they're not. With a little more luck, Sabathia could be 24-5 right now. He's had six starts this season where he gave up two runs or fewer in 7+ innings and took a loss or no-decision, including four straight just last month. Beckett has only had three such starts. It's not his fault that he gets poorer run support than Beckett.

Lawler was accused (falsely, as it turned out) of statutory rape and sodomy of a minor less than two weeks before the PPV. Vince had to plug someone believable into the match on very short notice, and HBK was the most logical choice.

Fucking A&M. I stick with Miami, I'm 4-0.

I'm jealous. I think I've been out of the top 10 for a total of 4 weeks during the 3+ years this has been running, and I've never once been #1.

There's going to be some major upheaval in the rankings this week. Nos. 1, 2, 4 and 7 have already lost, and Nos. 5, 9 and 10 could be in trouble.
