Getting this out real late this week, the Commish has been active with things. I set the spreads on the website this morning, so if you've made your picks already, you are good to go.

Sunday was sure a roller coaster with lots of lead changes in the Cincy@Jets and Tenn@Indy games. Without looking, who knows what college team(s) Jets QB Mike White played for? I coulda been a contenda if it wasn't for that guy.lol And where was the Tennessee defense that shut down KC the week before? Both games did me in.

Alrighty then, our week eight winner came out of nowhere on Sunday night with his 10 pointer, and his team finally did him right. Taking 1st place and getting his first win of the year was Jose C with a strong score of 49. He picks the Cowboys every week as his ten pointer and it paid off this time. One guy used to do that with the Saints and he fared pretty well back in the day. In 2nd place was Rudy with 46, getting his first mention of the year. It looked like he was going to take home the bacon after the days games, but you never know what might happen on Sunday or Monday night, and that was the case for him. 3rd place went to Carson with 45, just a point behind and his first mention this year too. 4th place was a tie with 42 between the other half of the newlywed couple Doodles, and Pedro FP who is quietly having a good year and in striking distance of the leaders. Honorable mention goes to the oft mentioned Jozlyn, who just got back from her winning trip to Greece. CONGRATS TO THIS WEEKS WINNERS!

The overall points race and chance to be crowned Champ of TWFP 2021 is starting to tighten up. Gary T stays in the lead for another week, Jozlyn moves up a notch into 2nd. By way of his big win, Jose C joins the top group in 3rd, and Jared M drops two spots into a tie for 4th with Mike M. Just off the pace is Jay J.

It's still anybody's title to win, but it would take a near perfect showing the rest of the way for anyone with less than 200 points. The winning score will come in somewhere around 625-650 with the extra week of games, but that still leaves a lot of opportunity with 13 weeks to go.

For the rest of us, there's still lot's of games to be played, and A LOT of cashish to be gotten along the way. So sharpen up your pencils and as they say, Pick Em Good!

Best of luck to everybody this week, especially yours truly.

The pick sheet will follow.
