Dang! So far I'm sucking even worse than last week! At this rate, I'd have probably scored better if I didn't submit any picks! Don't know how to handle the Minnesota/Dallas tie. I guess just leave it blank as in no winner.

Results for Pre Season Week 4 are now posted in the Weekly Results folder. Congrats to Bob2112 who takes top honors for the final week of the Pre Season! Sorry I didn't get the results up sooner. I was way too tired last night to stay up and wait for the final game to end. And today, I took the day to catch up on my sleep, laze around for a while, catch up on some shows on the DVR, and laze around a while more.

Hmmm....I'm setting up the "game open" announcement, and see we have two Monday night games. One of them must be a reschedule from some kind of time conflict. But I don't know which. I wonder which one is the "official" Monday Night Game? My guess would be Minnesota/Washington, since it looks like the San Diego/Oakland game is on pretty late at night. ETA: now I read on the NFL website that its being touted as a "double header." OK. Well, I know I won't be staying up late to see who wins that one!

Hey Who, can you please check my score again? I got alot more right than you gave me credit for. You don't have to change the chart or anything, because it really doesn't matter anyway (preseason) but I just want to know. You can just send me an e, cause I keep track of my scores. Thanks!!

You're right MsOwl! Sorry 'bout that. I really appreciate you keeping track (and hope others do too). That gives me the heads up I need to make sure the formulas I have plugged into the Excel spreadsheet are still working. I have to tweak them here and there as I add players, and I'm certainly not above goofing up. I completely rely on the formulas to work, as I don't have time to spot check them as much as I did last year. So any errors anyone finds is very much appreciated. I've posted the corrected chart in the appropriate folder. If a Mod would like to delete the old chart, please feel free to do so. Thanks!

Whoami, if the bonus points for the Cin-Ind game is 15 - the variance, how does 7 compute to 11? I get 5. What am I doing wrong? 20 - 3 = 17 - 7 = 10 15 - 10 = 5

Oh man Gracie, you're going to make me re-think this math manually? That's what these Excel formulas are for, so I don't have to think! OK, lets look at it....... We're talking just BQ1, right? So, its worth 15 points if you guess the point spread exactly. You guessed 7. The actual point spread was 3. So you were off by 4. 15 minus 4 is 11. Oh.....wait.....! I think I see it! You're going by the Cinc/Indy game, which was Game #14 on our list. The BQ covering the point spread was for Game #15 between Philly and Jets! So, it looks like your maths skills are right, just not for the right game!

Okay, thanks! I knew there was a reason, but didn't realize I had the wrong teams. Well, I had lots of the wrong teams this week, but it was a fun experiment anyway.

Hey, Who, since I missed picking for the last preseason games because I was winging my way to FL do those scores get added on to regular season or do we start fresh? Sheesh, I went from 4th place to off the chart! LOL

We all start fresh for the regular season! The Pre Season was just a practice run for us! So no worries! New players (or returning players that had too much stuff going on during the pre season) are encouraged to come on in and start playing too!

The Week 1 picks chart is now posted in the Weekly Picks folder. Please review your entries to make sure I entered them correctly. Whooo Hooo! 26 players this first week! That's more than we've ever had! How fun! Still time to join up any time anyone wants, even if you had to miss this week's picks!

Way to go Mamie! Can't believe my own score turned out so much better than I anticipated. Yahoo! Granny, you'll do a great job throughout the season, besides you're a Colt Fan!
