I think Fred is just out of luck this week. He quit UP over a TNF game, so if he wants a Sunday game then he needs to get back here and bet ;D

Oh, btw: if any of the top peeps want to place secret bets so that your competition can’t adjust, just message me your picks and I’ll time stamp them with an image hosting site.

Dolphins beat the Patriots — hilarious even if Patriots were taking a pre-playoff break.
Looks like Renzo won unless the missing peeps bet and win on the Seahawks

"Yeah! What happened? You and swordtail just threw away your last chance :p"

Holidays happened. I think I glanced over the spread, saw two games which I though had potentials for upsets, decided to read up on stats later and then forgot about it, thanks probably to all the stuff I imbibed and inhaled over the past two weeks.

Anyway, congratulations Renzo, we'll get you next season, most definitely
