NFL Picks - Playoff Suicide Pool

Weather forecast is for about -1 C with - 5 C wind chill with snow likely

I don't think that is going to be cold enough to matter. Those guys are all wearing gloves and tights and have heaters on the sidelines. The snow might matter somewhat, does either QB wear a glove on his throwing hand?

You also have to take in consideration the wind, not just how cold it is. Playing in a dome for 11 of there 17 games this season. Also take into account that after November (colder weather) in outdoor stadiums they lost 2 of 3 games. The wind mixed with the cold is what makes Soldier Field tough to play at, especially for warm weather teams.

I believe Grossman does, but Brees doesn't.

The wind affects the kicking more than anything else. The throwing is not so bad in mild winds IMO. As far as the gloves go, if Grossman wears one, advantage Bears; as the ball will be wet and very slippery.
 
Brees should be well used to the cold weather. didn't he come out of Purdue University?
Saints and Colts for the Super Bowl.

If Utd win on Sunday I could give a fcuk who wins these games, tbh.
 
Bears to beat the Saints 27-13, Bush to fumble twice and Hester to score on a kick return :D

Indy to dominate NE, 38-24, Brady to throw 2 INTs and cry afterwards
 
f**ks sake Pats, you've f**ked this one up very royally indeed.

this just completes my very sh*t Sunday.:(
 
oh well, we did not deserve to win this after fecking up.

we had a huge lead, but we fecked up.
 
that was a good second half from the Colts. awesome stuff from Manning.

I'm surprised I actually made it this far in the picks. well done to me. and RedCanadian.
 
how the f**k did we lose that? f**ks sake! this Sunday has been complete and utter tripe, I feel like I am losing the will to live :(

this week has been f**king sh*te, f**king hell, I thought 2006 was a sh*t year, 2007 feels like its going to be a whole lot worse for me and 2006 was the shittest year ever :mad:

best way of committing suicide? :mad:
 
I'm just going to get behind the Bears now, feck off Colts, just feck off you cnuts :mad:

I don't know why I hate them, but I fecking do.

:mad:
 
Colts owner going on about how Jesus favoured the Colts, fecking clueless!

If Jesus wanted anybody to win this, it would have been the Pats because the Colts are f**king gay.

I think we're on the verge of Armageddon.

:lol: :lol: :lol:

about the best way of comiting suicide i guess it will be to jump under a train

but in your case, you know you are kinda moron, you might want to play it safe,

so drink some poison, go to the train station with a gun, before the train comes lean towards the tracks, shoot yourself in the head, so you'll fall in the tracks seconds before the train comes

that might do it :)

and if it doesn`t, you are right, 2007 sucks for you :p

So does this mean I win? Since the other two can't make a selection since they've both picked the Bears and Colts already, I figure it must... :D
It does indeed! Congrats you Ihni binni dimi diniwiny anitaime :D

Here's the last 3:

MyBloodIsRed [Bears, Indy, NE]
Mehro [Bears, Indy, NE]

RedCanadian [Bears, NO, Philly]

So RC could pick the Colts whereas the other two can't pick nothin' but their nose. Therefore, RedCanadian wins!

guns are not legal here, so there goes your plan out of the window!

and i know that if i was to jump under a train, i would still survive, but be paralysed, such is my fecking luck!

YES!!!! Cue "We Are The Champions" by Queen!!!!

Thank You, Thank You

I would like to thank all the little people that picked the Ravens over the Colts. I would also like to thank mehro and MyBloodIsRed for eliminating themselves. I would like to thank the teams I chose for winning the games, without you I wouldn't be where I am. I would like to thank God for giving me the insight to make the picks I did. And lastly, I would like to thank my wife and newborn daughter for standing by me through the struggle that was this playoff suicide pool. Thank you!!!

:D :D :lol:

If suicide isn't legal either, why worry if you violate the law by using a gun?

What if RC picks the Colts and they lose? Then Mehro and MyBloodIsRed never picked a loser and should be co-champs. I say force RC to make his pick and sweat it out for another two weeks.
 
Well when the Bears win the Super Bowl on Feb. 4 then I will have predicted both Conference Championships and the Super Bowl therefore I am replacing all telephone psyhics and going to start buying Lottery tickets!!

U could already be a winner ;)
 
Hey bitches, put your picks (and score) for the SuperBowl in a pm to me and we'll post it if anyone is interested. A minimum of 4 will be required for me to do anything about it since I'm spending some time in the World of Warcraft and it's more fun than anything you spastics can provide ;)



Go Chargers!
 
Yeah, great season, and good to spend it with a bunch of 'real football' fans on a feckin manchester united board. Imagine that... a shame it had to end so badly.

Here's to next year. Go Pats.
