Yahoo Football Pick'Em Thingie 2025

#1 Post by littlebeast13 » Wed Aug 27, 2025 6:47 am

I've been reminded that it's time to renew the group... but first:

For those who play.... I've had a request to let picks continue through the playoffs rather than just the regular season. If we do that, I'd need to change that upon renewal.

I'm opposed to including the playoffs, but it is a democracy, so I'll go with whatever the majority wants. If you play, you can vote yea or nay. I'll probably need to get the group renewed sometime this weekend, so speak up if you have a preference!

My other group goes through the playoffs, but I don't really think I care. If you could shut 'er down if/when I'm in the lead, that'd be great.

I’m all for the playoffs just to give me more chances to escape the basement.

I'm pretty sure all of my picks this year are going to be correct. Extending into the playoffs might jeopardize that, though.

And, I don't want to vote for something that will add an extra hassle for you.

So, I'll vote no.
