It All Comes Down to This

The football pool, started long ago in August 2007, is in its final throes and here's what we have:

Pick a Winner (10 points): N.Y. Giants vs. N.E. Patriots in Scottsdale, Ariz.
Against the Spread (5 points): The Pats are favored by 12.
Over/Under (5 points): 54

Now, to keep everyone honest, we're going to have the four still in contention for the title send their picks to an impartial observer (in this case, Big Thunder). Those four are Budds, myself, Joe and Maxipriest. Everyone else can also send their picks to Big Thunder if they wish, or can simply post them here. And hey, since it's a free country and it's an egalitarian blog, the top 4 can also post here if they so choose.

I'll take the Giants and the under.
 
Ok. So our attempt at impartiality was a bust, with Big Thunder on vacation or otherwise absent from his email. That left us on the honor system (which, at least by the picks, seemed to work).

Here are our picks:

EJ - Pats to win, Giants to cover and the under. Predicted Score: 31-20
Budds - Pats to win and cover and the under.
Joe - Pats to win, Giants to cover and the over. Predicted Score: 31-24.
 
I'll take the Pats to Win, Pats to Cover, and the Over. Predicted Score 37-20.
 
I took the Pats to win, cover and the under.

Final 27-10
