Quote of the day
"Not to be all overconfident or anything, I think I'm going to catch everything out there. Obviously, it doesn't happen that way -- duh, Detroit, right?" -- Oakland outfielder Coco Crisp, who made a leaping catch at the top of the center-field wall in the second inningQuote of the day
I typically comment on the weekend Football Pickoff results in my Tuesday blurb, but yesterday I simply forgot. Fortunately, the football schedule allows plenty of time to overcome my memory shortcomings.
It was a relatively kind week, with 55% of active slates posting positive scores. However, I do note that the top two entries in the YTD standings both moved backward. The top score was by C1-NRB, who posted a +519 on 12 correct picks, doubling Miami over Cincy.
For the full season, however, a cumulative score of zero would currently rank above the median, as only 42% of cumulative scores are currently positive. And if you had been picking nothing but Consensus Favorites, you’d be in the bottom 10%.
