Professor Summer Vs Zeus Pone, Week 14
4 years ago
My weekly series has been brought out of retirement in part due to a challenge from
ZeusPegasus13 ! We'll be matching wits week to week, more correct selections in week is worth a point, aaaaannnd, there were be positioning in a lewd picture at the conclusion of the 17 week regular season at stake for whoever gets more points. We'll do our best to lock our picks in publicly, but 17 weeks is a long time, so trust that we'll be keeping it honest during non journal weeks.
Current score:
3
2
For those unfamiliar, the positive or negative number of each pick reflects the "spread" that must be accounted for a pick to be successful. A negative number is subtracted from the given team's real life score, while a positive number is added to that teams real life score. For example. Team A -3.5 vs Team B. Real life score Team A 10 Team B 7. 3.5 is subtracted from Team A, for a pick score of Team A 6.5 Team B 7. Team B is the "correct" pick and Team A is wrong.
Week 13 recap: For a change, Zeus and I did as well as each other instead of as poorly as each other. We both went 2 right 1 wrong, so the score remains 3-2 in my favor.
Pick 1
Los Angeles Chargers +2.5 to defeat Atlanta Falcons
The Chargers got blown the heck up against the Patriots, then the Patriots went and got themselves exploded in a nationally televised game, so that explains why Vegas and bettors are down on LAC. I think they win this game outright, and I'll take the +2.5 as heartbreak insurance in a last second loss.
Result: Chargers 20 (+2.5) - Falcons 17. CORRECT, Chargers win the game outright in comeback fashion.
Pick 2
San Francisco 49ers -3 to defeat Washington Football Team
The NFC East had a good week last Sunday, but it's not sustainable. 49ers win this game without much trouble.
Result: 49ers 15 (-3) - Football Team 23 WRONG, and agonizing, the 49ers gave that game away like, 15 times as I monitored RZC
Pick 3
Buffalo Bills -2 to defeat Pittsburgh Steelers
I'm breaking my rule against picking my Bills. I do not care about jinxes and double-sadness scenarios. I'm high high HIGH on Buffalo right now, and I'm not at all afraid of what might happen on Sunday night.
Lets have some fun. <3
Result: Bills 26 - Steelers 15 CORRECT and helllllllll yeah baby!!! This year's Bills are not phased by the Summer Curse!

Texans -1.5 > Bears NO
Vikings +6.5 > Buccaneers NO
Bills -2 > Steelers YES
Result for the week: I've got a little mini-streak of 2 right 1 wrong weeks, but unfortunately Zeus could not keep pace. He tripped up with a 1-2, and I now lead 4 points to 2. Three weeks remain in the NFL regular season.
AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH GO BILLS! *jumps through a table*
