Cliff Notes: It's not; dreams will be crushed, hopes will be dashed and draft talk will start in Detroit around mid-November. TheLaw will post a SOL meme, something about a bald kid kicking a football and say 'I told you so'
Quoted from Deaconblooze:PINSIDE CONFIDENCE POOL
Synopsis: You pick the straight up winner of every game, every week during the regular season. You give each winner a confidence rating, ranked 16 on down, with 16 being your highest confidence. If you win, you collect the points assigned to that game. If you lose, you get nothing. There is a weekly winner (high points for the week), and your points will aggregate throughout the season to determine the pinside champ daddy. In-depth rules are in the pasted image below.
Payout structure will be dependent on how many entries we get. Payment will be 50 for the season, and I'd like to see at least $25 go to weekly wins (two weekly wins gets you your money back), and the balance split 80/20 between 1st and 2nd.
To play:
1. Join the pool:
Existing members - check your email and use the link provided to reactivate your entry. Please do not use the link provided for new members.
New members - use this link: https://www.runyourpool.com/p/j/5400827240d8473086f6ff54ea6693e4
2. Submit payment
Send $50 as a paypal gift to paypal.me/davebeimborn. Provide just your pinside name in the comment, please no mention of the pool etc.
3. Make your week 1 picks before the first game of the season.
Any questions let me know. I'm set this up with runyourpool despite their fuck up last year. I was assured it was a one-time deal, their fees are the lowest, and we're already setup there. If people express their desire for something else (officefootballpool ($3/entry), etc), we could switch it all over, just speak up.

“We comin’”-Coach Prime
I’m excited and looking forward to all the games. I haven’t even looked at the week 1 schedule. All I know is Miami will be playing the Chargers in California. Miami’s road trip to California went poorly last year, so I’m guessing the Chargers will win that one.
Quoted from Slugmeister:“We comin’”-Coach Prime
I'm already sick of the coverage of coach "Prime". Acts like the 1st time an unranked team beat a #17 team. All fluff. He's not drawing up plays.
Quoted from jandrea95:Tough opening week to pick. Very few gimme games.
First few weeks are dart throws for the most part...
Leon Sandcastle should never be doubted!
Quoted from tomdrum:I'm already sick of the coverage of coach "Prime". Acts like the 1st time an unranked team beat a #17 team. All fluff. He's not drawing up plays.
Quoted from TheLaw:Prime is the shit!
Just like my Amazon Prime. Coach Prime is a hype machine.
Quoted from TheLaw:A hype machine in college football of all places, heavens no!!!
Do you think coach Hairball made any difference in Michigan's win even though he wasn't on the field? Of course not. His assistant coaches are key. Like every D1 team.
Quoted from fosaisu:At the risk of derailing this thread with NFL talk, here’s a survey of agents that should warm Levi’s heart.

I think riverboat ron will be outta the league before Tua.. is it bookmark season yet?
Ron seems pretty happy this year so far. Just like the entire DC area. The Snyder cloud is gone. Everyone can focus on winning football games and Ron knows he has lucked into a franchise QB.
Cowboys and Eagles fans at my work are starting to get nervous about the Sam Howell experience.
Quoted from Dee-Bow:I think riverboat ron will be outta the league before Tua.. is it bookmark season yet?
This is an interesting prediction. We will revisit!
Bookmark season is neverending. I PMed the mods to get my limit raised
Quoted from DanMarino:Ron seems pretty happy this year so far. Just like the entire DC area. The Snyder cloud is gone. Everyone can focus on winning football games and Ron knows he has lucked into a franchise QB.
Inherited coaches don't usually last.. we'll see. He had that qb last season and admitted to not even realizing it.
Gotta be getting closer to week 1 kickoff no?
Have been watching 'King of Queens' reruns on Paramount+ and their Thursday night football promo video of Lions-Chiefs caught my eye. Apparently gonna be able to watch this game *legally* so there is that!

I got KC by 14+
Quoted from Jamesays:Bosa only wants 32 million nearly double his current salary,or You could pay Saquon and Josh jacobs and have money left.
Really ?... thats stupid money .... Niners should tell him to pound salt, let him sit all year, and then tag him next year. Does he really want to leave $18M on the table with his history of injuries? No non QB is worth that kinda coin in a salary cap environment

Hoping you get a nice long season of Tua and he's able to have a nice long fruitful career for the fish.
You never know!

Starts is going to be a lot cleaner to determine than starts/finishes. Just a suggestion
Quoted from Deaconblooze:Disney and spectrum better figure out their little scuffle before MNF.
Speaking of, no double header to start the year.. but then two weeks of 2 games starting just an hour apart. [quoted image]
I get a week extension; The week 1 MNF game features the jets, so I can watch it over the air via antenna. Covered for any MNF games on ABC as well.
Also, I think we can mooch off my babe's mom's Optimum account and watch ESPN via the app.

Nobody taking the deuce? Gimme
Quoted from TheLaw:Wait wiat...Kelce questionable with knee sprain
Too late bro - I already took Lions +14 for 2 Zingerman's Reubens and a case of Stroh's

Nope. Tua has got to start and finish the game without being pulled due to injury. If they are rolling with a 3 TD lead and he gets sent to the sidelines and a backup comes in to mop up the final drives, that still is a successful start for Tua.
I have a feeling it will be clear. He’s either gonna get obviously hurt, or he will successfully complete the games this year. It’s not like he’s going to get benched for performance. There is a big drop off with the #2 and #3 QBs.

Yeah and they are going to be reporting on this health like crazy too. I think it will be easy enough to determine.
Quoted from chuckwurt:Yeah and they are going to be reporting on this health like crazy too. I think it will be easy enough to determine.
I wish he can play for a long career without injury. I’m not routing for him to get injured just feel like he’s injury prone.
Quoted from rai:For the record I wish him to play for a long career without injury. I’m not routing for him to get injured just feel like he’s injury prone.
Yeah you’ll never convince me he’s not extremely susceptible to further injury.

Alright, well I hate to leave Bosco and jandrea alone at 17, but I'll move down to 14 to cover any unfortunate concussions later diagnosed as back injuries
