Inspired by Gov. Schwarzenegger's hidden message in a veto to the California legislature, here are my picks: For the past nine weeks, I have carefully made my picks, trying to usurp the top position in the standings. Three games out of first can be overcome, as our history shows, but just like Charlie Brown kicking air instead of a football, I seem to miss the opportunity. You will notice on the archive page, that I have never been in the overall lead at the end of the season. Finishing first in the pool using all of my efforts is my highest priority for 2009-10 season.
