*** Official CRS CFB Pick 'em DISCUSSION ***

[SUPERCOACH]

Wooooot! Daddo 2Stater in the Top 5! Props, Pops. Have some additional e-creds from your favorite daughter (don't worry, I would never tell the other two - what they don't know can't crush them)!

  Thank you sweety. However finishing in the top 5 with a 5-5 record is much like coming closest to the GS-Bama score with a prediction of 48-7, which, unfortunately, is the case. I'll take the props since you are my blood, but I ain't real proud of my prognostications. I feel like Nostradumbass. 

My Daddy told me it's all about perspective. You're looking at it from one angle: A 50% on a test is a failing grade.
Another angle: Let's say a curve is established based on this week's top dude - HL missed two. There's some basic percentage math and other factors, but the way I look at it, everybody gets two freebies that don't count against them. So, based on the curve, you made a 70% on this week's test. Not something you haul azz home to show Dad, but you know what they say, "C's get degrees." (Scary when you think about surgeons and bell curves, huh?)
My angle: You graduated #5 in your class of 24. That means you were smarter (i.e. prognosticated better) than approximately 80% of your class.

My Daddy's, like, way smart and stuff.

Sounds like somebody is wanting an all expenses paid trip to the Battle of New Orleans for Christmas.

Don't pump him up too much. He will be absolutely insufferable after this.

  You got me pegged, CB.

With a line like this I thought we had Sar and Chasm on the thread going at it.

Lol! Coming in 5th with a 5-5 record, I feel like Rodney Dangerfield in a Mr. America contest.

2 and I are the nicer version of Sar and Chasm. I would say fatter, but I don't want to speak for 2.

It is a lot of fun, isn't it, Preacher?  Like you I'm already looking forward to doing it again.  I sure do appreciate SC setting us up with such a nice competition.

Agree. Kudos to Smitty and Supercoach for all of this. It's really been fun. Will this continue for the league championships and bowl games or is this .......  the last week?

  There are still a few games the week of the SECCG.  Also, might be fun to pick ALL the bowl games and count it like one week over the whole bowl season.  Just a thought...
