This week is for all the bragging rights. Good Luck!

Since I'm 25 points out of first do I get to pick all the games?

wow I am only 13 points away from first much better than last year IMO

At this point the only people with a shot at first place are those within about 4-5 points. The top two are close enough to swap places in one week, they'd have to really stink it up for anyone else to get ahead.

Third is about the best I could do and I'd need some help to "back in" to third.

Last year I had like a 6 point lead going into the last week, and proceeded to go 0-4 whilst the 2nd place person went 4-0.


Twas a little miffed.

That is the "stink it up" needed for anyone five or six out to win this week.

There you go folks, it can and has happened!

There are no Saturday games this week? Interesting. And normally there is a Thursday game too...

Can someone pick both teams from the same game to guarantee themselves some points? I thought of that last year but didn't do it.

Also no Monday game. The league doesn't want any playoff team to have an advantage of extra days off, so all week 17 games are on Sunday and all first round teams will have the same rest.

Good move not doing it. I'd give you a chance to change your picks if time allowed, but if they were left like that I'd toss the entry. That isn't "in the spirit of the game." Would you do that in Las Vegas and lose on the house take? Nope, so it doesn't go here either.
