[/quote] When the game is over, my son and I break down the film together and evaluate his performance. If he doesn't perform to his abilities, he is punished. What's wrong with that?

[quote name="hvac_setx" post="1280926" timestamp="1348513534"] why would I be mad. Have no investment into either team.  The concept of picking an UPSET game, is just that.  Everyone loves a win by an underdog.  Has nothing to do with being smart, as apparently Smashmouth is.  Seems he has scouted and personally viewed EVERY single player and team in the league, therefore he can accurately predict any games outcome. :o [/quote] (Yoda voice...) Help you I can, hvac...Scouted many teams, I have. (Normal somewhat condescending voice) An upset is one thing but a foolish pick is another. To pick a game as an upset requires a little responsibility of the prognosticator (you can look that one up).  Unless you're just making frivolous impossible statements for the hilarity of the notion, then the upset has to be even a slight possibility.  Your claim, however, was nowhere close to being possible without Divine intervention...  But if Lum W plays Ned B 10 x, they beat 'em 10 times. I watch about 5 games a week in the Jr. league alone. I usually pick the winner...not always. Good luck!
