After a lengthy delay, here are the picks we made last week. In a twist of fate, the week that we delayed posting them, we actually went out and finished in third place in our ranking pool–netting us some cash back (not quite the entry fee–but if we finish third or higher again, we’ll be covered for the year). We finished the week with just a 104–but we climbed to 30th overall for the year.
Head to head, I’ll have to get caught up on. But as for Week 9 picks…well, we’re not the most superstitious people in the world–but we figured why screw with what’s worked, so we’ve made our picks early again, but plan on holding off on publishing them for now.

Help me out guys ... getting older fogs my memory more but I am about to do another write-in ballot…
Paul I guess but did you see my other comment
There is a tight timeline of only a few weeks to schedule these, perhaps Joe and Jerry had previous commitments
I’m surprised Charles Haley and Ronnie Lott knocked on the door of Roger Craig I thought it would be Joe…
Paul totally but would you agree it would make a great book
