Radio station here in Nashville has a game called Silly underdog picks. Each week you pick 3 underdogs to win and you get the total points . Weekly winners get a nice prize package , but the overall winner for the yr gets a trip to Vegas and other prizes. Pretty cool. Kind of fun. I have had 2 good weeks .

It was what we did last year, I doubt anyone has a problem with it, and if they do I can switch it right back.

I don't think it really matters. It really only helps those who miss a week. Therefore I like the dropped week. Last season was the first time I made every week. I did miss the 3 Turkey games.

Personally don't care about the 'drop worst week' - one way or the other..

Didn't do too bad, couple one's I had in my pocket that I didn't get - must of been a hole in it..

Long as Big D takes home a W it's a good week.

Keep your head up Twisted! Shit happens to all of us, it's a long season. I see you finishing in second place, right behind me.

I don't have a problem with dropping a week, or 2 weeks, or even 3. It just doesn't look right when someone unilaterally changes the rules part way through.

Congrats to all for the Week 1 scores. Several games were right on the edge from a handicap perspective and multiple games depended on the final drives. No disgrace to be under .500 this week.

If I don't pick today I may completely forget before this Sunday. CRS is a bitch.

It's something that should have been done at the beginning I am sorry for not doing so.

One of the worst weeks I have ever had. I am not much for the point spread. I always get more wrong that way. Hope week 2 is better. More close games to call. Oak/Jac. I guess they want to find out who is the worst early this year, as per everyone's opinions before the season started.

lol yup, that point spread is a real kicker. You think you picked a game right only to remember it was a 3.5 spread and not 2.5

I play the spread all year with parlays, usually come out on top a couple of thousand every season. I think with pickem' the spread makes it fun, picking straight up is rather easy to me I usually hit double digits right every week.

That's why I like the spread better. Otherwise you get people just picking favorites. Then again maybe straight up picks will help me. I did had a perfect wrong pick card a few years ago. Thing was is was a week that was too danm easy to pick and there was only ONE upset. There was over 100 perfect cards that week.
