AOL WTF?

The FootballBone.com website is going away October 31st, because AOL is taking my webspace, aol hometown, away! They have been charging me monthly for two years for service that apparently was free! I own the FootballBone.com name, but the files were stored on AOL.
You may want to save the Dolphinsafe.net website in your favorites, so you don't miss out on future pool picks. I am looking to get a new place to store the website, but it may take me a few weeks.
This FootballBone blog is not going anywhere, so, pump up the volume! I will continue to send the weekly recap sheet in your email!

Lightning Strikes Twice, Meet BlueEyes83!

Two time winner, BlueEyes83, seems to have a system, too bad she's not sharing it with her fiancee Nutz82, last weeks bone winner! BlueEyes83's 12-2 record, gives her a 4th place ranking for the season. FATS moves into 1st, PatsFan hold onto 2nd and EMMETT drops to third. On a side note DOLPHINEAUS claims he is going to pick the Dolphins every week and still beat TrustNo1!
B-Money, once an EX-King, now joins the Kingdom of the BOne!

Speaking of the Dolphins, the Dolphins capitalized on four Bills turnovers as Buffalo dropped their first division contest of the season 25-16 at Dolphins Stadium. Ted Ginn Jr, booed by fans at the draft party, made seven catches Sunday for a career-high 175 yards, and the Dolphins overcame a nine-point third-quarter deficit to beat Buffalo. With Ginn's first 100-yard game, he made by far his biggest impact since Miami's much-mocked decision to take him with the ninth overall pick last year.

Jets Punk the HERO's Perfect Week!

THE HERO's perfect pick week disappears as the New York Jets send the game into overtime allowing Sebastian Janikowski to kick a team-record 57-yard field goal with 2:30 remaining that gave the Oakland Raiders a 16-13 victory Sunday. "I came here to win games like that. So that's what's disappointing for me," said Favre, who finished 21-for-38 for 197 yards and two interceptions.
"As soon as I hit it, I started celebrating because I knew I hit it good," said Janikowski, who was mobbed by his teammates after the kick.
So, THE HERO takes week 7 with a record of 13-1. Also, THE HERO takes 1st place in the TcPalm Pro Football Challenge locally and tied 3rd place nationally in the HGTVPRO Builders Football League!
Nutz82, wins the FootballBone Award and secures his season position, last place! EMMETT is still in 1st place, PatsFan in 2nd and FATS of NJ holds onto 3rd!

Browns knock Giants,ChiPPer Toasts TyRANT in Week 6!

The Browns won on Monday night for the first time since 1993, ending New York's 11-game road winning streak with a 35-14 win over the defending Super Bowl champions. "I threw three interceptions," Manning said. "That's unacceptable. That's not the way we win games. You're going to lose a game every once in a while, but we don't like the way we played. That's what's disappointing."
In the closing minutes, Browns fans chanted "Over-rated" at the high-profile New Yorkers.
New player ChiPPer, hits the point total right on the head to take the win from Joe Buffalo! Congradulations to TyRANT, for picking up the BONE AWARD this week. Even the brighest star burns out eventually.

Panther Chew Up the Chiefs in Week 5!

It was the first time in six years that the Chiefs were blanked. The Panthers (4-1), who have missed the playoffs the past two seasons, are off to their best start since reaching the Super Bowl in the 2003 season. It was one of their most dominating performances since they crushed the Edwards-coached New York Jets 30-3 in 2005 on the way to reaching the NFC Championship game.
TheSpinWizard's and Pat Caf's 11-3 sheet put them in a battle for the win, but TheSpinWizard's points take him to victory. Tarzan falls from the trees again, WOW!
EMMETT is in 1st place, FATS is in 2nd and PatsFan has 3rd place for the season!

BlueEyes83 Sweeps Week 4!

The girls rule in week 4. There are 54 players are in the pool, 12 are female, 6 placed in the top ten this week! BlueEyes83 with a record of 10-3 takes the loot. Joe Buffalo, 5-8, gets stuck holding THE BONE!
Broadway Brett joined Broadway Joe in the Jets' record book after the Jets beat Cardinals 56-35. Brett Favre set a career high and tied Joe Namath's mark with six touchdown passes, including three to Laveranues Coles. Kurt Warner tried to bring the Cardinals back in the second half as Arizona scored 35 points. Warner, 40-of-57 for 472 yards, threw a 14-yard TD pass to Jerheme Urban with 4:49 left, but lost the ball again on a fumble with less than 3 minutes left.
