Perfect Picks

Oh yeah, we're the highlighted team...at the top!
Jordan and I play in an NFL Pick 'Em Pool with my dad, sister, brother, several uncles and then lots of co-workers and friends of my uncles. We thought it would be a fun thing to get into and give us all something to talk smack about with each other. Well.....it has quickly turned into MUCH more than that. Basically, it's a really easy concept: you pick who you think is going to win every NFL game for the week and then give a tiebreaker score. That's it. No picking individual players or a defense. And the people who finish in the Top 3 each week win money! This pick 'em pool is perfect for me and Jordan because it's a great combination of my luck and his football knowledge (although, I know my fair share of football facts.) After a few kind of rough weeks, we've slowly been creeping our way back up to the top. Then the past two weeks, the Top 3 places came down to the tiebreaker score and we got beat out. Devastating. And so this week we came back with a vengeance!  AND WE TOTALLY DOMINATED!!!! We had PERFECT picks across the board for a solid 13-0 showing and no tie breaker to determine the winner. We outright won it and made some huge ground for the overall points for the season to get within 3 of the winner. Whoop whoop! Now that's what I call teamwork, baby!
