Just wait until the oddsmakers start getting a good feel for setting the spreads. It is going to get brutal.

I don't think so. I picked the Iggles and the points. :naughty: I picked the Cowboys in the no spread league. :-)
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

I think Odin set it up so the lowest point total for the week is dropped. Which means I am technically in first despite you, Tucker, having the most points overall!   :evillaugh:

1 Jendf 19 12
2 Tucker 21 11
3 Wiggum's Warriors 15 10
4 KABOOM! 17 9
4 Rebel Yell 16 9
4 lastparker 15 9
4 RobJ 15 9
8 Odin's Hand 10 7
9 MIRCS 0 0

Well I farked up this week and didn't get my picks in so the top spot is up for grabs and I got my work cut out for me. Sigh!

The worst part is I missed the Thursday window by about 40 minutes.  :thatsright: :thatsright: :thatsright:

Cool. We both can improve in FF next season but we both should insist on playing the spread in pickem as we are both pretty good at it.

We need more players in the FF league though. 8 team minimum. The no cut players hurt me.
