And in the pool, Howard M breathes a sigh of relief by getting that first (and most elusive) victory out of the way in Week 1. He lost only 3 games, but had to scream and kick and hang on by his fingernails during the later games, as Denver, Dallas and Atlanta won in last second heart-thumpers. And congrats to Fred B in his return to the pool, as he picks up the 2nd Place prize, just a couple of clicks away from the top spot. To complete his big week, Howard M also pocketed the Monday Nighter, as the 49er defense looked like the Steel Curtain against the Vikes.
