+++ NFL Picks / Week 9 +++

[Auggie]

MID-SEASON STANDINGS after Week 8.

Redbear is the new leader, but a whopping 14 players are just 3 or 4 wins from tying or surpassing. Very cool, gang.

BTW, Redbear and Scurrilous have asterisks (just regular asterisks, not the Barry Bonds variety) attached to their totals because they, unfortunately, forgot one game along the line. It could make a difference in the final standings, and I felt it was fair to keep track of it.
