Update: I apologize, but I screwed up. I had a wrong team entered in as a winner, so everyone was 1 game off, either too low or too high, depending on whether you had it right or not. I've updated the text too.
Last week was a struggle all around, in both predictions, and on-the-field. Even though picking the straight up winner was easier (my predictor got 11), picking against the spread was tough. We only had 1 player get 9 correct, and that was TheLawnWrangler. That catapulted him into 2nd place overall
We also had 4 players that got 8 correct picks. They are:
- BetterD
- JakeTheSnake
- mgrex03 Predictor
- Terry
Jake is starting to come back to the leaders, only 7 back. We also see an appearance from our favorite Cowboy fan as well. I'll also put some blame on our friendly Page2 writer, who got 8 correct this week, and picked the Colts to cover for the first time this season, for how bad the Colts looked last week. He can go back to picking against the Colts any day now.
Overall, the Stampede Blue Leaders are as follows after 7 weeks:

A new upgrade to these tables: Sortable columns! Thanks for the code goes to Matt Kruse at JavaScriptToolbox. I tweaked very little, and it works great. Check out his site for other fun website enhancements.
The results below are (originally) sorted by Total score. Feel free to click on a column and sort them yourself. I've again separated out the "experts" who just picking straight up winners, to make it easier to read.
