Well that's a little more like it.
I certainly didn't expect a 59-0 beat down, but I liked the Pats against the Titans' pathetic pass defense. Right call. Brady + Moss = a whole lot of win. Taking Jones-Drew and DeAngelo Williams didn't hurt either. I actually went over 200 points in one contest which is crazy.
If only I'd entered more contests. If only.
Yeah right.
I was so 'with it' when making my picks that I entered an uncapped contest on accident. Smooth.
Anyway, as usual I didn't get to watch a whole lot yesterday - I saw exactly one play in the early games: Greg Jennings (who I had on my rosters) dropping a TD pass. Thanks, Greg. I watched a few minutes of the Pats/Titans game before CBS switched over the morass of suck that was the Jets/Bills game. Also caught the first half of the Bears/Falcons night game.
I didn't get around to answering Zeem's question about strategy in the 25 player contests (sorry), haven't given it much thought. SwDP was back to smaller contests this week, don't know what'll happen going forward.
Sunday results: 4 contests entered (2 - 10 player, 2 HU), 4 cashes (2, 2); amount risked: $18.80; amount won: $47.00; net: $28.20; ROI +150.0%

Edit: As part of my ongoing effort to find a dark lining in every silver cloud, I finished with the 2nd best SwDP score of the week and of course the guy with the best score was in my contest costing me $20. Blah blah blah. (No, I'm not serious). On the other hand, my scores put me right back into contention for two of the prizes - best single weekly score (2nd, duh) and best single weekly blogger score (1st).

I think these results answer Zeem's question emphatically.
Brady, Moss, Jones-Drew, etc. almost all the top rated studs put up numbers.
Using a poker analogy, using "longshot" players is just like going all-in preflop with 6d8d: You'll win occasionally, but you'd much rather be in that spot with KK.
Nice work! If the high scores hold up (likely) it was a pretty profitable weekend.
