Week 12 NFL Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

It's getting ridiculous.  Obviously, the grownups around here are showing that we don't know too much, but does the kid really have to keep rubbing it in week after week?  It was hard to get much movement in the standings due to the fact that there were 3 games that pushed, but the kid still managed to increase his lead by 3 games.

Week 11 NFL Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

Another week, another win for the kid.  He didn't even have to be exceptional in Week 10.  He just had to get more right than wrong, which he did. 

It will be interesting to see if the 6-year-old will continue his hot streak or go through some losing seasons.  He likes football, but he doesn't know much about how good each of the teams are.  So his picks are still random.  Theoretically he should end up around .500 for the season, which is where he's ended up the first 2 years we've done this.

But in the meantime, we'll just watch him beat up the experts.

Week 10
6-Year-Old: 7-6-1

Overall

Week 10 Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

After lurking for the entire season, the 6-year-old is now firmly in the lead after JDaddy suffers a bad week.  The key to the kid's success?  Wednesday I asked him who he thought would win the Washington-Minnesota game.  His response?

"The Vikings, because they punch people out!!!!"

There you have it folks.  Doesn't take much to win this little league of ours.

Week 9
6-Year-Old: 7-6

Week 9 NFL Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

We're back baby!  All four of us picked more winners than losers last week.  Not only that, but the kid is now tied for the lead.  He won this thing the first year we did it, but that was mostly due to poor competition.  This year, he's actually putting together a solid season of picks.  Meanwhile, being the Cowboys homer he is, Uncle J is doing his best impression of the team by going .500 at the halfway point of the season.  Hey, maybe that can get him an audition to play Safety.

Week 7
6-Year-Old: 9-4
JDaddy: 7-6
Uncle J: 7-6
CDog: 7-6

JDaddy: 65-53-2

Week 8 NFL Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

I'm totally disgusted with my picks this season.  I didn't think it could get much worse than my 4-11 performance from Week 6, but it did.  Just 3 correct picks last week.  This from the guy that one the whole thing last year.  So I'm going to focus on other things this week.

Earlier today it was announced that the Dallas Cowboys will play a regular season game in London next year against the Jacksonville Jaguars.  That's pretty cool.  And it would be cool to be able to attend that game.  So that got me thinking.  What are some of the venues that I haven't seen that I'd like to see?  In no particular order, here are the Top 10 (until I get more time to think of others).

1. Lambeau Field
2. Cameron Indoor Stadium
3. Centre Court at Wimbledon
4. Dodger Stadium
5. Augusta National
6. Notre Dame Stadium
7. LSU's Tiger Stadium - I'm wondering if it's possible for someone to get me tickets to watch Johnny Football there this year.
8. Target Field (Twins) - Don't ask me why.  It just always looks great on TV.
9. Gillette Stadium
10. Maple Leaf Stadium

Wasn't that a nice diversion?  Now to the ugly truth of football cluelessness.

Week 7
JDaddy: 8-7
6-Year-Old: 8-7
Uncle J: 7-8
CDog: 3-12

JDaddy: 58-47-2

Uncle J: 52-53-2
CDog: 42-63-2

Week 7 NFL Picks Against a 6-Year-Old

You can blame me.  My terrible showing through 6 weeks this season is holding us back.  A great week by Uncle J has him back to .500 for the season.  JDaddy treaded water to hold on to his lead.  And the kid had a great week to get him within 2 games of the lead.  Then there's me.  Last year's winner can't get find a groove.  Maybe this week will change things.

Last Week
