Adven chooses the word "embarrassment" rather than the word suck this week, Mames! LOL!

Good luck today, Angels, and remember: second place is just first place for losers. You might want to get that little slogan tattooed somewhere. Nowhere provocative, though, like your inner thigh. This is a family game. I didn't think of the slogan, but I don't think it would do any harm to attribute it to me on the tattoo. Maybe a Capt. "A" tattoo beside it, hands on hips staring out manfully. Anyway, use your imagination. The key word is tasteful.

I'm way ahead of you, Captain. I had this done last night on my calf.

Nino, I actually found a Captain America tattoo on someone's leg and I just put "Adven's Angels" and "Second place is first place for losers!" beside the tattoo using a graphics program!

I bet the other teams are thinking, "If there is any justice in the world, these guys will fall to last place!" ROFL!

Wow! That Capt. A graphic is very clever and creative, Hermione, to say nothing of being an amazing likeness. I hope you put as much thought into your picks this week. Remember, my reputation is on the line and preserving its integrity is a solemn responsibility.

LOL, y'all! Good find, Hermie! Adven, we will do our best to make you proud!! And, yes, Hermie, I'm sure there will be a lot of celebrating if we should somehow crash and burn today!! LOL! Good luck! I'm off for a nap before the games start!

Ya'll are definitely going to be put away! Too bad about last week Angels, but we are the pick of the litter! When Pigs Fly Soars!

It sure has become more competitive since we started playing as teams, hasn't it? LOL Adven, as usual, your encouragement just stirs me. I aim for great heights, preferrably a cliff to jump off of.

Mamie, Hermie and Nino, you gals can climb up to the rooftop and watch from there! We have a tendancy to fall from heights. I wish you all good luck.

I am so sucking again. Maybe we need to fire Adven and become Viggo's Vixens or something.

Not that far ahead of you. I was hoping that Pittsburgh would win in OT but not.

LOL My score is only 50% too, and I agree Hermie. What Happened? Maybe the pigs are flying below the radar today! Hahahahaha

I see my team is panicking and whining before the standings have even been announced, while I remain zen-like and steely-eyed. You have clearly chosen wisely in imploring me to take the helm. I admit your picks this week are going down like ten pins and you have all been wrong with alarming - yet spectacular - regularity, but if the same is true for the other teams, we will still be in first place and my good name will be salvaged and, after all, isn't that really why we even play this game in the first place? Remember, it's all about priorities.

I finished the day out at 50 percent! Not good!!! Thank goodness I got the full 15 points for the first bq! My Cowboys just better win tomorrow night, but, if they do, my fellow Angels, that would make your picks wrong!! It's too much of a dilemma for my poor brain today, so I'll just let the chips fall where they may! Ha! I cannot believe Jacksonville allowed Houston to beat them so soundly!! And what about the Eagles! (although, I'm glad for my Cowboys standing!) Adven, this Angel has let you down this week, but she will bounce back next week!! Promise!! This week's score will both suck, and be embarrassing!! Unless everyone did as poorly as I did! LOL! Mames and Hermie!! We'll storm back next week! Keep the faith! Okay, Adven, some heartfelt words of encouragement is sorely needed here!!! LOL!

Heartfelt words of encouragement, Nino? You're in luck. Those are the only kind I offer. Here are 10 pearls that should warm the cockles of your heart: 1. Never pick against the Patriots. It angers the Football Gods. I did it once and later that evening got cornered at a party by the office bore. So, lesson learned. 2. Always pick against Tennessee. They have powder blue in their uniforms, thus rendering them too in touch with their feelings and hesitant to deliver healthy doses of mindless violence to their opponents. 3. Never pick New York based teams. I hate the Yankees in baseball and there's a perfectly logical carry over to football. 4. Avoid picking Tampa. They know why. 5. Like the Giants, the Colts have one too many Mannings, so treat them with barely concealed contempt. 6. Be careful with Jacksonville. No particular reason. They just have a second string cornerback that looks a little smug to me. 7. The Cowboys have T.O. Pick against them. With luck, we will get to be entertained by another psychotic episode. 8. Always pick Denver at home. That mountain air leaves their opponents flopping on the ground and gasping for air while they run around scoring touchdowns. 9. Always pick Trenton. They don't have a team, but I've just got a hunch. 10. There is no #10.

Made me start off my day with a smile and I know that will really bug you but those were funny! And I have to agree about the Yankees, sorry Herm.

HEY! Watch what you say about my Yankees!! Those are funny rules. I think the one about Tennessee made me laugh hardest.
