clearlysuspect:Wow... pretty competitive this week. It's still up for grabs but everyone is chasing Krieg. Here's how it stands going into MNF: Krieg - 9 (picks NYG - 44) Smokeee - 8 (picks Dallas - 42) Robbyras - 8 (picks Dallas- 47) Others were close but cannot win from here: JZ - 8 (picked NYG so cannot catch Krieg) kingjk729 - 8 (would still be very much in the running but last weeks winner) clearlysuspect - 8 (picked NYG so cannot catch Krieg/ ineligable) Jocelyn - 3 (She has a tendency to pick the team on the left. This week she went right every time but once. Had she gone left like usual, she would have only had 3 wrong.) Special notes: clearlysuspect was the only person to pick Cleveland over New Orleans Smokeee was the only person to pick Oakland over Denver
robbyras:Congrats Krieg! Freakin Romo! He just HAD to go and break his whatnot... the cowboys are almost as bad as the niners

kingjk729:Hit me up with a PM Krieg, and i'll get you a package out asap
Krieg:Good luck this week, my falcons will be on BYE this week, and since I won, guess I'm also on BYE, lol. I can't wait to send some smokes out to whoever wins, I got some nice peach flavored swishers to send out!

JZ:That's the 4th time your picks came in on Sunday. I didn't make the game or set the rules but I would appreciate it if the rules were followed. I think we can all make some exceptions every now and then but it shouldnt become the norm.

I think we can all make some exceptions every now and then but it shouldnt become the norm. Sorry JZ. I enjoy playing this game and I believe I contribute quite a bit in keeping weekly spreadsheets and making sure everything is tracked. Being new to the whole "father" thing, I'm having difficulty keeping track of time so I would certainly appreciate a little lee way, especially on such a petty rule. I'm not particularly sure what the point of the "picks in by midnight" rule is and I believe you make an exceptional point in stating that you didn't make the game or set the rules, especially considering that the person who did make the game and set the rules no longer plays the game due to boredom. The number of people who participate in this game are ever increasinly disapating with an average of 6.33 participants per week. I propose that we allow any picks before 1pm on Sunday. I also propose that we try to eliminate any other meaninless rules that we may find in an effort to attract more weekly competition. Since the game creator is no longer present in this forum and no one here is really in charge I propose the usual weekly players vote on this. As the person who usually creates the weekly tracking spreadsheet and posts the Sunday night and Monday announcements, I usually don't make the spreadsheet until Sunday night and it usually only takes me about 10 minutes to complete the spreadsheet and double check it, so I really see no problem with this proposition at all.
clearlysuspect:Alright. Here is how it stands going into MNF. Almost everyone is still in it this week.kingjk739 - 7 (picks Indy - 46) Vulchor - 7 (picks Indy - 60) Robbyras 7 (picks Indy - 50) Smokeee - 6 (picks Houston - 55) clearlysuspect - 6 (picks Houston - 48) Those who cannot win at this point: JZ - 6 (picks Indy/cannot catch Kingjk729, Vulchor, or Robbyras)
