2/7 12AM - Green and Yellow, Green and Yellow!  Congrats Amanda! My sis dominated with 19 points and tied for 2nd all-time highest score!  Congrats to Chandra on 2nd place, well done! And congrats to my mom Debbie on 3rd place!

1/23 10PM - Amanda is our winner! Super Bowl doesn't even matter for 1st place, how boring! She's the only one to pick the correct SB matchup too. Congrats, Amanda! 2nd and 3rd place still up for grabs... If GB wins the SB, Chandra gets 2nd place, Debbie gets 3rd place. If PIT wins the SB, Chandra, Christina, Doris, and Jenny will fight for 2nd & 3rd place depending on the tiebreaker. The women have truly ruled this tournament.
1/16 10PM - Updated. Steelers vs Jets and Bears vs Packers next week.
1/16 1AM - Standings updated. Out of the first 6 games, the majority has picked the winner in only 2 of them. Looking at the rankings I see 5 of the top 7 are women and the bottom ranked 7 are men. Hmmm.
