Week 12 Completed.

After week 8, Bob Sparks was sitting at 22-18 and 4 weeks later sits alone at the head of the table at 37-23.

Former Champion FastEddieSS revved up the charts to sit alone in second.

Klem63 not to be confused with Klem62 powered his way up for a tie for third with last weeks leader DannyM

What these three have in common is that they went 5-0 !

As Adam Ant once sang, "There's Room at the Top"..................

We are starting to see some separation now and it gets interesting as we are entering a holiday football week.

We had 3 entries that went 5-0 and that brings the season total to 25.
We had 2 entries go 0-5 and the season total rises to 31.

The top 5 consensus picks went 3-2. The top 5 record stands at 30-30 after twelve weeks.

The Overall Consensus Top Pick Detroit sent 31 entries home with a loser. This is the eighth week in a row to drop the overall record to 1-11.

I must admit I am totally baffled by this as the last three weeks the top 5 picks went 11-4 and yet three of those losses were the top pick. This has been a printing machine if you are betting the opposite. You don't even have to handicap it, just blindly bet the other team. I automatically consider my pick a loss when I end up with it being a top pick. I've never seen anything like this anywhere and by far the strangest streak and history. That lone win has an asterisk around it and all I can say is holy cow.


Overall game selections went 8-5
Overall selections went 157-153
Overall for the season the picks stand at 1899-1991 for a 48.82% win rate.

The projection win total stands at 55.5

Holiday Edition of Bad Man coming up really swiftly.

Week 13 in the books.

Just when you thought there might be some clarity and separation, we have a muddled top of the heap yet again in a blink of an eye. We have a three way tie for first with Bob Sparks, FastEddieeSS and UpTwnClwn.

DannyM lurks 1 back while four are 2 back and another six just three back.

We had 1 entry that went 5-0 and that brings the season total to 26.
We had 1 entry go 0-5 and the season total rises to 32.

Congrats to TINFW17 for being the solo 5-0!

The top 5 consensus picks went 3-2. The top 5 record stands at 33-32 and is above the 50% mark!

The Overall Consensus Top Pick Detroit back to back weeks sent 26 entries home with a loser. This is the ninth week in a row to drop the overall record to 1-12.

Are you making money yet?

Overall game selections went 6-10
Overall selections went 152-168
Overall for the season the picks stand at 2051-2159 for a 48.72% win rate.

The projection win total stands at 52.6

Best of success down the stretch, it's still anyone's title to take!

Week 14 Complete

Besides my picks sucking the last 5 weeks, nothing is staying the same.................

Let's just say it's feels like hell froze over.

The Consensus Best Bet with Houston won and raises the record to 2-12. The overall top 5 went 2-3.

Two entries went 5-0 while two went 0-5 raising the totals to 28 and 34 respectively.

I've been doing this now for 25 years and I've never seen anything like this at all period.

We have a 7 way tie for first with 4 weeks to go. It's like no one wants to win. The leaders week to week haven't been the same and now we have seven of them.

I promised an exciting and unpredictable 25th contest and here we are.

Good Luck to everyone involved in the mad scramble. This will go down to the very last game of the contest....... 20 points still up for grab.

The pace had dropped to 51.42 this is due to the leaders consistently having poor weeks and no one was able to run away with it.

Week 15 Completed

FastEddieSS last years Co-Champion has risen to the top of the mountain with a 1 point lead over four entries tied for second. FastEddieSS 201-0 the last six weeks is looking to be a back to back Bad Man Champion!

Three weeks to go and it's still wide open.

No entry went 5-0 or 0-5 leaving those totals at 28 and 34.

Something has gone haywire as the overall top selection has won two weeks in a row raising the season record to 3-12. Buffalo with a rally gave a winner to it's 20 backers.

The winning pace number rose to 52.8

15 selections left and as I stated earlier it's wide open, who will rise up to be the 25th Bad Man Champion?

Good Luck to all still in the hunt!

Week 16 in the books.

Separation once again...........

The leader and Co Defending Champ FasteddieSS finds himself a top of the board by two games over Doc's Sports Cappers who leads by 1 over third.

3 Entries went 5-0 to raise the total to 31. No entries went 0-5 and keeps that total at 34.

The world is coming to an end as New Orleans was the top pick and covered making it three in a row for the top selection. Record improves to 4-12 on the season.

The winning pace is back to 54 and is sitting in the range I thought it would be several weeks back.

Two weeks remain and ten points up for grab. It's not as wide open as it was but there are many entries within range if all the puzzle pieces fall into place.

The group had it's best week of the season by a whopping 3.67% going 187-138 for 57.54%, this brought the season win % to 49.34%

Week 17 Complete

What's there to say this week......... The contest is wide open as Doc's Sports Cappers and FasteddieSS sit atop the roost by a slim one point lead over Jwill and former multiple time Bad Man Champ ParlayPaulie with his second entry. They have a slim one point lead over five others.

As always the Bad Man title may come down to the final game of the regular season.

One entry went 5-0 bringing the total to 32 for the year. We had two that 0-5 to raise that total to 36.

The top selection won for the 4th straight week raising the season record to 5-12.

Good luck to everyone that still has a shot at becoming the 25th Anniversary Bad Man Champion!
