That game can take a while. Do you reshuffle the card piles after each round or just go with the order they are in?

Hoyle rules say shuffle, guess it depends on how you grew up playing it though. I prefer pyramid solitaire myself.

I've played under both rules. I will normally just defer to what the other person wants to do since It doesn't really matter either way.

gstelmack, JAG, Vince and TazFTW were all 4-0 in their predictions for winners, but gstelmack was much better at picking the scores.

The week's best single game score was gstelmack's CAR-CHI game (-1) and Ryche's TB-ATL game (-1).

Another week where the Sunday Night game hurt just about everyone, this time for how low scoring it was. The SEA-SF game was another one that hurt a lot of people for how high scoring it was.

I'll start posting total standings in a few weeks.

I almost made a pick for New England vs. Miami, but decided against it. I'm very happy with that decision (depending on how the PIT-PHI game goes).

46 Pending the Sunday Night Game. Probably going to be looking pretty good after what Miami did to New England.

I'm pretty sure the Miami / New England game cost me more points by itself than my entire entry last week...

Much better. Just 14 points going into the MNF game.

Not too bad, considering the Miami/NE disaster. At least I was close on the Minn/Car score, even if I got the winner wrong.
