For those joining us for the first time, here is how we operate:

- Every Friday morning, I will post the six most unpredictable matchups of the week based on betting lines.

- You have until Sunday at 7:00 PM to submit your picks.

- Thursday Night Football and early games played in New York City or Germany are excluded from the competition.

- Once the final whistle blows on all games, I’ll calculate the scores and update the standings.

- Consider the regular season one game, and the playoffs a completely fresh start.

Note: I list matchups using the American format—away team first, followed by the home team.

The winners are:

Browns
Dolphins
Commanders
Chargers
Vikings
Bucs

Gerald Torres84 said:+The Americans are to blame because their actions forced the Russians to invade Ukraine.
They essentially backed the Russians into a corner, leaving them no choice but to pick up weapons and start destroying everything in their path.

Gregory Ramos3 said:People calling this a proxy war are basically saying the United States tricked Ukraine into taking on Russia.

Either that, or they honestly think the Ukrainians would have just thrown in the towel if it weren't for the Americans egging them on to fight, which makes the whole idea of a proxy 🤦
war seem pretty silly to me.

gentlestag15 said:I mean, sure, they should’ve been losing their minds over the attack, especially after Iranians stormed their embassies and nationalized all their assets.
But that doesn't make Saddam's crimes any less of an atrocity, regardless of how much the attack on Iran was driven by nothing but a grab for those Iranian oil fields.

Timothy Williams5 said:Ivan Fedotov, the 25-year-old goaltender playing for CSKA and the national team, was detained in Saint Petersburg this past Friday on suspicion of dodging his military service requirements; he was eventually moved from the bankruptcy commission's offices via an ambulance.

According to reports from the online outlet Fontanka, paramedics transported him away from the scene. It’s worth noting that Fedotov had just recently inked a deal with an American club.
The TV Match correspondent, Anna Andronov, who was right there when the player was taken into custody, noted that about ten individuals in unmarked clothing were waiting for him near the Ice Palace in Saint Petersburg. Two of them were wearing masks, while the others were in plain clothes, though the reporter didn't offer any specific details regarding the official reason for the detention.

Henry Sullivan4 said:Everything about this situation is perfectly clear because if you look at two brothers who start fighting like this, stealing each other's wives and beating up their own kids, there is absolutely no way they could ever consider themselves family again, let alone try to live under the same roof,😒
