woops,
Bronchos over Texans by 4 in upset of the week

I will be defending my crown, but I need a little more time to get the tipping juices flowing! Shall we agree to all put in a credit and winner takes all (or perhaps 1st/2nd/3rd prizes)?

Hi Jon,  Glad to hear you are back to defend your title!

Let's see how many people enter and if they all agree to put up a turn credit.

Then we can decide on how to allocate prizes.

Awards for 1st & 2nd will probably be OK I think, and if we get enough people, maybe 3rd as well.

Thanks for the compliment Greg, but I think with my already weak roster and the fact that I won't have a QB on my roster until week 2, my Lions could well be in for a pasting this week...

My C Texans...now they are a different matter altogether...
