It's a BRONZE letter day as I sweep into 3rd place. And oh yeah, cml and msclemons are in 1st and 2nd. Ho Hum.
A BIG WEEK for upsets with 5, including Kansas City beating a 14.5 pt spread.
WAY TO GO CHEFS!!!!
Rules:
- One pick per week
- Your chosen team must be at least a (+3) underdog
- Your chosen team must win the game outright (no 'pushes' or 'covers')
- Season winner is the one with the most upsets correctly chosen between Week #1 through the Conference Championship Games (20 weeks all together) (i.e. TOTAL WINS)
- There will be a points system to determine a winner in the event of a tie (i.e. TOTAL POINTS are used ONLY to break ties).
- Points will be accumulated by adding the game spreads for your correct picks (if you take Carolina (+4.5) and Carolina wins, you will be awarded a win and 4.5 points). Be careful making picks based on the number of points possible. Points only count if you are tied for the total wins lead when the whole contest is finished.
- The No Upsets Option: Predict correctly that 'No Upsets' will occur in any given week and you will be awarded one win and a point total equal to the sum of all the spreads in that week's Upset Special. If you wish to exercise the 'No Upsets' Option, that prediction is due by 12:30 PM Eastern on Sunday of the week in question.
- Picks are due no later than 30 minutes before the scheduled start of the broadcast time for your game. The FootballPros.com time stamp on your post is gospel.
- Spread lines will be posted Thursday and will remain static throughout the week. This isn't The Sports Book at Caesar's Palace, after all.
Prizes to be determined but may include a cool icon denoting your status as *ahem* Upset Special Top Dog, a hat or t-shirt or possibly tickets to the Super Bowl (NOT!!)

The Council of the Learned’s Thursday Night Football Pick:
THU, DEC 22 TIME (ET)
Houston at Indianapolis 8:20 PM- TJ Yates versus the Caldwell Robot sounds like a kids movie. Nope, it is the Thursday night entertainment. That is, if that entertainment was like cutting fresh onions right next to your eyeball. PICK: (HOU)
