I suspect they do this to further irritate me. So I guess it is all my fault.

I know, it was a pretty crazy pick, but I was backed into a corner - Mr Man took the best pick (St L) (we try not to overlap our picks in order to minimize the chance that one team knocks us both out) and I have a very hard time picking my team (Giants) to lose, so Philly pick was out. Believe it or not, based on the morning line, Houston was the third biggest favorite yesterday. I should have gone with my gut and taken either The Jets of Minnesota though. Ah, hindsight.
I did stay alive in my pick a loser pool and in a smaller suicide pool though, so no need to stop watching for the year yet...
