  6. I tied with @flsportsfan83 for most points but they got the win on the tiebreaker. Points on this one came down to who scored the most points since most of us were pretty close on the winner and margin of defeat.

    @BrassBulls12 extended their overall lead to 30 points ahead of the closest competition. With just 5 games remaining, some bold predictions paying off will be needed for someone to overtake a contestant who hasn't missed submitting a prediction all season.

    Personally I despise grocery stores. The weekly shopping for food is right up there with root canal and prostate exams. 

    Early morning grocery shopping with the kids left at home is one of my greatest joys in life. I go in with a half-baked list and wander the aisles to figure out the other items I need.

  9. @BrassBulls12 takes the win today with just one of two predictions favoring Tulsa for the win. While this is their first win of the year, consistency now has BrassBulls12 in the lead for the season with a 25 point advantage over second place.
