What are those week one and two results supposed to indicate?

They first set of numbers is the record of the top picks for the week. In week 1 the Hilton picks went 3 wins 2 losses. The 1-W means the top pick won, the second highest pick won, the third lost, etc...

One of the things you also want to look at if you are taking any stock in the Hilton picks is how many picks were for each team. A great example of this is the pick with the third highest picks Buffalo. Buffalo has 86 picks which ranks it third but the funny thing is that Miami has 70 picks with a ranking of 7. If you are playing or using these picks to weigh in on your own please note this.

I can't remember who but last year I thought someone used to give the top five picks by which had the largest differential between the two numbers. By going by that method the top two I believe would be

Tampa 134 votes to Atl 26 votes
New Orl 71 votes to Ten 26 votes
