Search For The NFL Handicapper: Week 8
October 24th, 2008 by Booth
It’s Week 8. The final week. Frank C. has a ginormous lead that he probably couldn’t lose if he tried, but the rest of us might as well go down swinging. Or just start betting his picks one week early. Below are my bet-the-mortgage picks followed by the overall standings. Good luck on Sunday.
Contest Info: Enter your picks in the comments section. The overall winner after Week 8 gets their own Friday column as NextRound’s resident NFL Handicapper. To be eligible to win you must participate in 6 out of 8 weeks and submit at least 30 picks overall. Check out the full guidelines here.
