How do we have a difference of 2 in number of games played? 
And if that’s correct, I should get the top spot, same wins, he’s got more losses. Beta version take 3 coming our way…
hmmm …something’s rotten in the den, Mark.
Great. Now you have me thinking about grey elephants again.
Going into the night game, this week’s winning scenarios are thus:
Bengals, Raiders - @ldancer911
Bengals, Chiefs - @Mountainhawk; Runners up: @OutdoormanNowActuary, @PatientZombie, @redearedslider, @ldancer911
Ravens, Raiders - @Mountainhawk; Runners up: @OutdoormanNowActuary, @ldancer911
Ravens, Chiefs - @Mountainhawk; Runner up: @OutdoormanNowActuary
There will be no VALSA as both @3rookie & A1695814 were equally sucky this week.
Here are the results for week 5:

Congratulations to @Mountainhawk for winning Week 5 and its award, Lovable Losers: You may guarantee one matchup from the team that you picked to win the least. The default will be to guarantee your Week 15 Jets over Lions pick. You may reject this default and instead guarantee your Week 13 Lions over Jaguars pick by declaring so before kickoff of TNF.
Additionally, you, along with @OutdoormanNowActuary, have won the Change one future pick award: You may change one of your future picks. Use for any future week, but declare it before the kickoff of the game it affects. This award expires at the end of the season.
Since both A695814 & @3rookie were equally bad at making life choices this week, the VALSA (VA’s Lion’s Share Award) award will not be awarded.
This week…
@Mountainhawk, @PatientZombie, & @Grizz used a COFP to change their Cardinals pick to the Eagles 
@Mountainhawk used a COFP to change her Falcons pick to the Buccaneers
@3rookie used a COFP to change his Bengals pick to the Ravens
@Vorian_Atreides used a COFP award to change his Panthers pick to the 49ers

why doesn’t Arb, KR and I have the same number of games in All Time?
I believe it looked right in the early post before the season started

Someone’s processes and reports could use a little actuarial control cycle.

I’m not sure if I’ve taken the time to thank you this season for continuing to run the game, but thanks for what you do. I know it’s a lot more work than the reverse suicide game.

Congratulations to @Mountainhawk for winning Week 6 (two in a row!) and its award, Jables’ Home Field Advantage: For one week’s picks, you may add three points to all of your Away teams or one point to all of your Home teams. The default will be to add three points to all of your Away teams in Week 9. You may reject this default by declaring your intentions on how to use the award before kickoff of TNF.
Additionally, you have won the Change one future pick award: You may change one of your future picks. Use for any future week, but declare it before the kickoff of the game it affects. This award expires at the end of the season.
Additionally, @SteveWhite, being in sole possession of last place this week, has won the VALSA (VA’s Lion’s Share Award) which gives him a limited-time-COFP which, if used, must be declared before TNF for a Week 7 game.
