I'm going to be on the road starting in a couple of hours. In case the pick 'em doesn't post before I take off--I'll take the Bengals by 13 in Thursday's game. WHO DEY!?!?

Current Standings

Lots of blown locks on the Chiefs. The two players picking the Jaguars were looking like geniuses after Jamal Agnew's 106-yard missed field goal return and a third quarter James Robinson touchdown put Jacksonville up 19-10. Then reality intruded.

Gus Johnson's call of Jamal Agnew's return even exceeded his cardiovascular moment with the missed field goal last week. He keeps finding an extra gear.

I think we should beam Gus's game calls deep into space. If invading aliens on their way to conquer Earth heard them, they would turn back and return to their own galaxy.

Fleet leader: "Flagship to Zantak. We know nothing of their intelligence level, but we do know that earthlings now have an uncontrollable amount of mental energy."

Zantak: "How much energy?"

Fleet leader: "More than Charlton Heston".

Question: I accidentally placed the wrong team as a "lock". How do I get back in to the selector to change the selection?

Boy, that Saints-Titans double whammy cost a whole lot of blown lock points.

From moder8's initial picks: Jets by 10 (lock) This would have been the single-greatest pick in the history of the pick-em, had it not been in error and later corrected.
