Well the novice that I am to the NFL it was an interesting start and introduction to the game. I made some silly choices like the browns to beat the cowboys, hopefully Ive gained a little more knowledge leading into the second week :!!!: Menolly it looks like I will taking over from you by propping up the league :D

A silly question, but I am trying to learn how the stats work, honest.

If dAN has 43 wins, like you and I do, why does he have 30 losses compared to 31 losses for us? Whereas Mr. Sunshine has 30 losses, but 44 wins recorded. If dAN abstained from picking a game that we lost, that benefits him?
