      Rules:

      Last season a few posted picks past the deadline. There will be NO exception this year. Please read the rules thoroughly. I repeat NO exceptions.

        I have only one suggestion. Considering that you also participate in the contest, I think that if you have any chance of being in the top 5 during the last 3 weeks that you consider having another impartial person get the email sent to them and they post the picks after the deadline. Personally I trust you and appreciate all the work you do running the contest. The problem is how do the other 55+ people feel and how do they think? I don't want to have to read a bunch of silly emails about this in Week 15, nor do I want to see you have to defend yourself against stupidity.

          I agree here. Too much at stake to be doing any favors for people being late.

                      Just want to clarify the deadline to make picks ... the rules say Saturday at Midnight, but that basically means tonight (when Friday night turns to Saturday). That seems awfully early for the deadline so I am wondering if it means Sunday at midnight (when Saturday night turns to Sunday). Let me know. Thanks!

                          It is in fact ... I was pretty certain that's what you meant but I didn't want to be the guy who starts 0-5 because he didn't read the rules carefully!
