Some housecleaning:

Tanstaafl suggested that I run the FJs in the middle of the following week's games, so that people can make their bets after all the scores are out. Probably others of you who are also smarter than me (or at least better-rested) thought of the same thing. So I'll do that starting with the week 2 game.

Also, it's probably going to be a couple days before I get around to posting answers and scores again. Sorry.
