Week Three Results

Week 3 ushered me from last to first place, thanks in large part to the defense of Minnesota and a last second Ravens' comeback.

Brad's Seahawks pulled a win out of thin air - or did they? Luckily for Brad the one person in America who thought so happened to be the ref.

Detriot had 25 points in the 4th quarter, 14 of those in the last minute of regulation including a great Hail Mary catch...  but went on to lose in OT.

The dream of the 1980 'Aints is alive in New Orleans.

Texans and Falcons are the top 2 teams in our league... and 3rd is the - you guessed it - Cardinals?!?

It's a highly unpredictable and volatile year so far, wouldn't you say?

Weak Deuce

While my Cardinals for Buccaneers trade is panning out, the rest of my teams aren't striking it rich like Darin's 49ers. Here are the scores after week 2 (click to view):

2012 Draft

I got together with my brother Aaron, Brad Cotton, & Darin Carlson at Blitz Ladd in SE Portland recently to make our football picks for 2012. The addition of Darin this year should make things exciting - he started by instigating a bit of preseason trading to the mix!

Should be a fun year!!

New Seahawks Logo

I found an article that claimed this is the new Seahawks logo for 2012:

I don't know if it's 100% accurate though. It also said that they will be following the pattern of the Oregon Ducks football team and changing helmets / uniforms on a weekly basis. Also not confirmed but I like the idea.

What do you think?

2011 Season - final outcome

Brad wins! Congratulations on the win my friend!

Conference Finals

Both Conference Final games were neck and neck and fun to watch. Brad's Giants eeked out a win in OT over the despised 49ers to stay alive. Aaron's Patriots squeaked past my Ravens to nullify my season.

Brad is slightly behind Aaron going into the Super Bowl but whoever wins takes the season... just like we all predicted at the beginning of the season.

Quarter Finals

Aaron went into the weekend with only 3 teams and came out with two while Brad & I went in with 4 apiece and came out with just 1 each. Still too close to call though!
