The season kicked off with a bang in Week 1, as we saw many close games and exciting plays. Overall
the quality of play was good, but with new rules in place, kick-offs looked like they were being done on
another planet and refs threw hankies all over the place to make a point about now-illegal formations.
Depending on their loyaltues, fans had some ups and downs .... Packers fans (aka, Deanna S)
are holding their breath over Jordan Love's knee injury .... Rams fans (aka, me) are fretting about their
decimated O-line .... and Cowboys and Saints fans are pretty sure their teams are world-beaters.
It's shaping up to be a wild and wooly 2024 season.
Closer to home, Heather C breathes a sigh of relief as she gets that first elusive victory out of the way.
Her upset pick of the Raiders over the Chargers was very misguided, but she pretty much nailed every other game ....
no small feat in Week 1 when we don't know who is hot and who is not. Eric V gets on the board by picking up
the 2nd Place prize. He missed only 2 games, but he put way too many eggs in the Bengals basket, as they were
trounced by the Pats in the biggest upset of the week. Karen M was very pleased by the Jets TD in the final seconds
of the Monday Nighter, as she steals the score prize away from her hubbie, Howard .... how sweet it is.
