Congrats freelyhovering for going 15-1 AND for opening up a 7-pt lead on the rest of the field... should be able to cruise to an easy victory in the regular season contest... might tie or break a record for margin of victory -- I'll have to go back and look at the past seasons' results for that... Several of us went 13-3 (and I actually jumped ahead of a couple people!), but nobody went 14-2, which is strange... usually one person scores just one less than the week's best, but not this time... who invited this freelyhovering guy to join anyway? .... <ggg> .... just kidding... love to see someone do this well... as well or better than the leaders of almost every other contest I'm involved in or aware of... well done freely Am leaving on a jet plane to go back east and visit my mother, siblings, cousins, nieces and nephews, but will keep things humming in the contest -- might even break some habits and post earlier in the day since I'll be on Eastern Time...

Congrats freely... Now, since he has already posted his picks, I really need to come up with some kind of potion when he finally meets me at the donut shop. What are we going to do people? Second straight year a "newbie" comes in and blows all the "experienced" pickers out of the water. Sigh.......... I think I had the biggest margin of victory ever two years ago. He is ripping that to shreds. We still have 5 weeks to prove he is lucky. The only trouble is that when you are 10 games behind, it is tough to catch up. Nice job. I bow to your prognostications. I am sure you are blowing away the pickers in the Morning News, too. Sigh............
