4. Okay, had to use a new coin this week...
I couldn't find the quarter I used for all of my picks last week, so this week I am using a "Minuteman III Propulsion Replacement Program Production Completion" commemorative coin issued in commemoration of...um... the Production Completion of the M3 PRP Program that I worked on.

Heads is home team, tails is visitors.

Bluzmann57 (14-15) WKS 1 & 2
mitchreject (9-5) WEEK 1
hughee (7-7) WEEK 1


*-I made sure to add up chollybocker's correct totals, (5-8) rather than (6-7).

Also since last week was week 6, 3 weeks played was the required number for a percentage. Since this is an odd number week I'll go with the smaller half so it will still be 3.

10. I agree
brendan, even though it may not look like it, made a huge jump in percentage. From .315 to .360. A couple more good weeks and he could be up there. However joey made a jump in the standings last week but this week fell back to 2nd to last place so one must stay consistent as well.

26. Yes, somewhat suprisingly.
She was stopped on a highway to turn left and guy coming up from behind wasn't paying attention and hit her going 55. He car, through engineering "magic," crumpled like it was supposed to and she walked away with severe whiplash and a very sore core. Her boyfriend, the same. Car is totaled (it was a hard enough hit that the roof started to crumple, too) but a very startling reminder that "things" don't matter as long as my baby is OK.

Glad to hear it was nothing disabling, though I'm sure they'll monitor their health for a few months to be sure they're really okay.
