LOL, I was looking over members choices on this weeks foot ball pool when I noticed that when it had come to the choice between [#ff0000][size 1]Miami at Buffalo[/size][/#ff0000] I noticed that at the time of this post every one had selected Buffalo over Miami except for me...

I got curious over the stats of the two and I got to wonderin why every one was picking Buffalo... Can any one clue me in?

after looking them up I saw that Miami is 0-5 and Buffalo is 0-4.

so then I started wonderin what was the deciding factor of every one's choice. was it a toss of the coin? is it the biggest looser factor? Or dose every one have the same gut instinct?

being a looser my self I think I am going to stick with my choice,

I made my choice following murphy's law

Murphy's Law regarding sporting events.

Stay with your pick Dave but don't quote me I don't get into pools since every team I pick looses they could be a solid lock to win and if I pick them that is the kiss of death for them when it comes to betting pools "IF IT WEREN'T FOR BAD LUCK I'D HAVE NO LUCK AT ALL"

I hear ya there, If I were to put a dollar on a game I would loose 10

Hey dave i am from miami and we own the bills thats why everyone else is gonna loose![sly] We could put the kicker as thr qb andd still win![] Bledsoes gonna fumble away and throw interceptions as usual.

The reason everyone is picking the Bills is because the Bills have played tough with everyone they have played. They held tough with New England, they almost beat the Raiders, they almost beat the Jets and they should of beat Jacksoville.

No offense to any of you Dolphin Fans, but the Fins flat out suck this year. Your coach has never won anywhere and Ricky screwed you. You may have owned the Bills in recent years, but the Bills are just as hungary for a win, they got far more talent on offense and the game is in Buffalo.

Now, the Dolphins D has been playing well, but with your D-End going AWOL how much enthusiasm is left in the rest of the squad. Especially with Jay Fiedler and his cracked ribs throwing pics all day putting the Defence on the field for probably 3/4 of the game.

My money says the Bills will have their first win Sunday.

So it's not just a toss of an indian head nickle[sly]

I thought there might have been a valid reason I was not aware of.

there realy is only three methods of picking a winning team on the pools.
[ol] [li]Techinal wich is most relieable[/li] [li]lucky pic's which has nothing to do with the game, (toss of a coin)[/li] [li]and there is murhpy's law. [/li][/ol]
I think I will stick with miami only because it fist murphy's law to a "T" (rules 1,2,3,8,9,13,14)

I know I did not post number 13 and 14. that is because I realy dont like number 13 & 14... they urk me![shocked]

Murphy's law

13. the team with the best resorces will loose to a team with fewer resorces (Tallent) because of Instine thery of relitivity "when things are set in motion things stay in motion untill it is diverted by another obstical in motion or adimate. Murphy's twist is that if every thing is going the wrong way they tend to stay going in the wrong way.
14. When every thing is going wrong dont expect it to continue that flow because nothing is a constant, if you expect a team to continue to loose it will win... "Catch 22"

I was gonna go with Miami myself but my decision was based on the luck of the weather this summer. Not very much activity in NY weatherwise. Miami's been bombarded with storm after storm.

yep, yep, yep, but you know how it is and on any given sunday, []

Just watch, this will be the only one I get right and I will get all the rest wrong... LOL...[laugh]

Ok, this week I am going to pick on Oakland...

I saw they traided off their self proclaimed golden fingers to washington. he was reported saying he wanted the ball thrown his way more often and the boss said it aint going to happen any time soon.

you got any thoughts on this, can Oakland realy afford to traid off their golden finger receiver? and what did they get in return.
