It should be outlawed!

I am so pissed!

Enjoy every sandwich

I remembered, but picked the Browns who couldn't hold on to the lead.
Each week now has Thursday games until Week 17.

We won, but I agree anyway. I do not like Thursday night NFL games.

Usually I like having a game on Thursday night, but didn't watch last night. Not only did I have a "date" with my wife to watch The Office and the Tivo'd on Monday Boston Legal, but I just wasn't "ready for some football" so soon after watching my Redskins get trounced by the Steelers (I know that made some folks on the Bored very happy).

I may be wrong, but I believe you can still pick the Sunday and Monday night games.....
It isn't like the USA Today pool that shut down as soon as the first game of the week started....

I'm REALLY glad that it worked out for you, Pea, but I don't recommend picking the Broncos on that basis next week. Please check your football sources first, which will probably make mention of Atlanta's running game against what our defense has shown against the run this year.
As for me:
GO BRONCOS!!

I knew the Broncos were just a 3 point underdog - and that they were away - so, they were really even this time.
I picked them for you - I won't do that when they are really, really underdogs.
Thanks for the 'permission'.!

On Wednesday, I picked only the Broncos/Browns game. I wanted to wait until today for my other selections because Friday's newspapers have game info I like to read. On the site I am not able to fill out the rest of my picks.
I read the FAQ here:
http://games.espn.go.com/pigskin/story? ... igskin\faq
It seems to indicate the rest of the schedule should be unlocked by now. Should I just wait longer or will I not be able to complete my picks for the week?
