Reminder: Make Your Picks in Yahoo Pick 'em League (Deadline is 5 PM EDT)

Submitted by HelloHeisman91 on

BUMPED PER REQUEST - LSA

The spreads are up but may still move tomorrow so beware of this if you put your picks in tonight.  Also, this league does use confidence points so don't forget to assign those as that will kill your score.  

In addition, the league filled up very quickly this year and a few people asked in a thread last week about expanding the league and unfortunately this can't be done or I just can't figure out how to do it.  However, in the past about 30 percent of the people that sign up to play end up not doing so, so I'll post a few more reminders in the next few days to get your picks in and if I need to boot a few people on friday night to open up some spots for people that want to get in I will.  So......................

HAVE YOUR PICKS IN BY 5PM FRIDAY OR YOU MAY GET BOOTED TO MAKE SPACE

 

Good Luck and Go Blue!!

 

EDIT: The final spreads are posted friday morning and there are a few games friday night so I'll have to move the deadline to 5pm and the warning above has been changed to reflect this update.

Just hit me up on Twitter to bump the thread if it comes to that - I will bookmark for that purpose. As the game approaches and we get more tidbits, news,feelingsposts, etc..., it will definitely come to that. Hopefully, the pace of threads has slowed sufficiently that this will stay near the top for at least a while, at least as we approach midweek.

If there are 30 games you will have to assign a numerical value to each game,1-30, and each game you get right you are awarding the point total you placed on the game. You want to accumulate as many points as possible so assign 30, 29, 28 etc on games you have the most confidence that you picked correctly vs the spread.

so I suggest entering an early week, half-assed set followed by a more serious selection later in the week.  That way, if something gets in the way of you getting back to your picks, at least you have something entered.  And since it's against the spread, your half-assed picks are likely to fare decently.
