Made to be broken

FROM SOMEWHERE OVER SIBERIA - It's Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting streak.

It's Secretariat winning the Triple Crown.

It's UCLA basketball's 88-game winning streak and 10 national championships in 12 seasons.

It's the Boston Celtics' eight straight NBA titles.

Mike Feder stands among the greatest of all time with a feat that could stand the test of time. And best of all, he's not done yet.

Feder, the lovable career baseball executive who just celebrated a World Series championship by his beloved Chicago Cubs, is at the top of a different heap. He passed the late Rita Fisher with his 191st consecutive week without a perfect week.

As he approached a tie for the record two weeks ago, Feder made one last-ditch attempt to avoid the record. He headed into Monday night of Week 9 with four wins, needing only the Vikings to cover against the hapless Chicago Bears (how's that for irony). It was a pick favored by 177 players.

And then...the Vikings wet the bed allowing Feder to the tie record. He wasted no time this week going over the top when he lost with Northwestern in one of the Saturday early games.

It's not like he can't do it, unlike the first time the record was set by Founding Father Dale Collins who went the first 168 weeks of PM's existence before he got his first perfect week.

Feder has five perfect weeks to his credit. But none since Week 5 of the 2006 season.

So the question becomes: How much longer?

All current streaks without a perfect week can be seen at the Streaks page.

Uncharted territory

Holding a 2-point lead as we cross the halfway point, Jason Hatala is looking from an unfamiliar perch.

After finishing 463rd a year ago and with his highest finish at 67th in his rookie year, the 9-year veteran has been relatively steady in the 2016 season.

In the first 10 weeks, Hatala has scored 1.0 twice, but hasn't scored less than 4.0 in the other eight weeks to hold one a 2-point lead over the field with a season total of 41.0.

Hatala has never finished in the money with his $520 in career earnings all coming from perfect weeks, including two this season.

Phil Choler and Matt Mecca emerged from a group of five that was tied for second headed into Week 10. The two of them are at 39.0.

Soon to be free

Weeks 11 and 12 are the last two weeks where players are required to pick at least two college and two NFL games.

Beginning in Week 13 (Nov. 24-28) players can take any five games on the schedule, all NCAA, all NFL or any combination of five.

The highest percentage in either the NFL or NCAA category belongs to Justin Herman who has a .778 winning percentage in NFL games. He's 21 of 27. Herman is in 18th place.

Italian Ice leads the NCAA category with a .774 winning percentage, 24 of 31, which helps put him in fourth place overall.

This and that

  • This week's Pigskin Special was picked solely for its potential entertainment value. We recognize it's a meaningless game in the grand scheme of college football, but with an over/under of 90 points, we figure it won't be over till it's over. The last 90-point O/U was in Week 8 when Oregon and Cal scored 101 points in a push. (Besides, there's only one game on the college schedule with two ranked teams in it and one of those teams is Baylor. See Asshander of the Year.)

  • Alabama has been the fourth most popular NCAA pick this season despite being noticeably absent from the Pigskin Special. Stanford and Michigan are also in the Top 10 without being in a Special.

  • Ohio St. has been picked 881 times to lead the NCAA Bandwagon. They are followed by Louisville (847) and Clemson (813). Florida St. rounds out the Top 5 with 785 picks.

  • The Patriots lead the NFL Bandwagon and, like Alabama, have not appeared in a Special. The rest of the Top 5 is Broncos (954), Cardinals (904), Raiders (854) and Cowboys (832).

  • The Browns remain as the only NFL team to never be in the Special. They don't look like they'll be there anytime soon.
