True story… I called my homie on Monday night to inform me on what the score was during the Eagles Panthers game. I had a lot of cheese riding out on that game so I didn’t want to jinx myself by watching it. Instead, bay’girl and I went to see the movie ‘Deja Vu’ with DENZIZZLE in it. As an aside, that was a kick azz picture. You should all go see it, or NetFlix it, or whatever. The deal was that my office pool was $920 dollars last week and I was one Carolina win away from bubbling hardbody.
Most of you know, the Eagles went on to win the game. As I spoke on the phone with my homie the game was in it’s final minutes. I should have waited to call dude. When I got home I was a little despondent since I had already begun to spend that money on holiday gifts and other crap. Lo and behold inside my mailbox was a gift from ARTHUR McGRATH Accountants LLC. Finally, the DP Dot Com Football Pool has a sponsor that we can count on (pun intended, of course). All of that was to say that when one door closes another invariably opens. Now the Pool continues, steamrolling to our New Year’s Eve climax.
Memo to ESBEE:
ESBEE, my dude, I know you are out there. Check it, here are the rules again for the Bonus Points Heavy Roller picks. If you are still confused by it please e-mail me. My dream for this inaugural season here at DP Dot Com would be for all the poolers to be within two points of each other going into week 17. In order for that to happen you have to step up your picks game starting this weekend.
Here are the Bonus Points Heavy Roller picks rules…
Each pooler has the chance to designate two(2) Bonus Points questions as their ‘Heavy Roller’ picks. The ‘Heavy Roller’ picks work this way. You may wager points from your existing point total onto the ‘H.R.’ picks. This feature was created to make or break last place pooler ESBEE. He has a chance to get up to speed with this feature. For every point that you wager you will win twice that amount if your pick is correct. If your pick fails then you will lose only what you wagered. For instance… ESBEE picks the Cowboys to outscore the Lions on Thansgiving Day and wagers (5) points from his existing total (17) and the Cowboys win he gets to add (10) to his existing total of (17) = (27).
Everybody won’t be allowed to wager (5) points either. Your current point total determines the maximum amount of points that you can submit.
This qualifies for all the poolers that haven’t submitted picks recently like MISHA and Skeeter Valentine and Skagger Vance and P-City. Here is your chance to get back in the game. I hope that I’ve explained the Bonus Points breakdown system clearly. Now let’s get down to business.

I hate betting on or against the FALCONS, but this week they need a W.
Same for the CHIEFS, and their home crowd should make a difference.
If the LIONS win a few before the season’s out, Matt Millen might get a contract extension.
What’s funny is that both the Panthers and Giants have scrambled to get out of the playoff race and they’re still both in it. The road team wins and Eli Manning is deified on the back pages of New York tabloids on Monday.
The Eagles should definitely win in Washington. But this is the NFC. REDSKINS
The TITANS have dominated the NFC East (except vs. the Cowboys).
