FOOTBALL - Week 1

To recap my system - purely emotional, I pick who I want to win, not who the stats says should win. My percentage is not as bad as you would expect considering.

Remember

• I will always pick the Raiders
• I will usually pick the NY team
• I always pick against certain teams (i.e. Cowboys)
• I pick teams I have a connection to, which is hard when, for instance, Tampa (where I lived) plays Minnesota (where my mom is from).
• I'm sure there are other rules I can't remember.....

My picks are underlined, winners are bold.

My picks - - - >

	New England	Oakland
	Chicago	Washington
	Cincinnati	Cleveland
	Denver	Miami
	Houston	Buffalo
	New Orleans	Carolina
	N.Y. Jets	Kansas City
	Seattle	Jacksonville
	Tampa Bay	Minnesota
	Tennessee	Pittsburgh
	Arizona	N.Y. Giants
	Dallas	San Diego
	Green Bay	Detroit
	St. Louis	San Francisco
	Indianapolis	Baltimore
	Philadelphia	Atlanta

UPDATE: 8 9 of 15 16 ~ slightly ahead of last years average.
I picked New Orleans here, but bet on Carolina
I vacillated on the Bucs/Vikings game, needed to change my mind one more time on that one.
I think Baltimore could have pulled it off if their defense got a chance to rest at all, they were playing hard and the offense sucked - on for 3 downs and out - so the defense played a lot, eventually just couldn't keep it up.
Not sure what happened with San Diego...
