How many times, if ever, have we had a poster get all 10 picks right?

RACK the law of averages! I'd been sucking for so long, things were bound to turn my way eventually.

sure 10 is tough, but zero is harder. I not only did it one week, but won the following week. I don't remember how many I got that week, but worst to first is my only claim to fame in the pick em.

This gives me hope.
I went from worst to first when I got my perfect 10 last year. Don't think it was 0, though. I think I also went back to worst (or close to it) the next week.

There's been 2 weeks this season where if I'd reversed every pick, I would have won. Neato.
This week, since there wasn't any LEAD PIPE LOCKS, and I didn't have confidence in any game, much less ten of them, I kind of picked at random... which should improve the outcome over my carefully thought out picks.

I took all of the season results so far from this table and calculated the average. I left out all of the zeroes because I figure those are weeks with no picks.
Have there been any actual gooseggs?
Average score = 4.9
(assuming no typos when entering the numbers, which I'm not going to check)
So, as a group we're doing slightly worse than you'd expect from a random selection of results.
Nice work.

I have been flirting with the "opposite" strategy for a while now...this week it's on.
