Bagel Time is the only team still alive this morning with the chance to earn a free Bench Swap. He’s sitting at 11-2 and needs both the Vikings and Broncos to win tonight. Per Amendment 13.5.2 of the Lombardi Three Constitution, the ‘Buddy Fucker’ rule could be implemented should he pull off both wins. This would lock the requirements of our Ball Gazer picks at 14 out of 16 for the remaining two weeks. If either team loses, Bagel Time does not earn a Bench Swap and the requirement drops to 13 out of 16 in Week 2.
The rest of us were nixed by the first few beers on Sunday. Odds were against all of us after the Pats got torched, quite enjoyably, by a rookie running back named Kareem Hunt. Perhaps the Pats should have focused a little more on their run defense and less on trolling the landscape during pre-game with the “ATL 28 NE 3 2:12 3RD QTR” Super Bowl LI comeback score plastered all over the stadium. Ironically the Chiefs go on a 28-3 run and thump the Pats at home. That shit is just too spicy not to mention.
Week 1 Highlights include:
- Not a one of us picked the Chiefs to win. (0-12)
- The only unanimous correct picks were the Bears and Browns to lose.
- Unlockin Yo Schtuff was the only team to pick the 49ers to win. (WTF)
- Christian’s Brothers was the only team to pick the Jets to win. (WTF)
- Trouble Hunter was the only team to pick the Seahawks over the Packers at Lambeau. (SMH)
- Bagel Time and Trouble Hunter (Week 1 leaders) were the only ones to correctly pick the Jags to win.
- Wanted Dez or Alive and Whitey Ford’s Team were no shows.
Kinda looking forward to Adrian Peterson torching the Vikings tonight…
