If PhilNotHill does not do one, I will do one on Yahoo. We can still banter on here about some of the picks every week, though.
I am beginning to think too many people are too consumed with Biden/Trump to do anything besides argue politics...
If anyone wants it, are you willing to do it with Yahoo? There is a reason why: Three years ago I was in a league just like the FC league, a guy kept score manually, we posted pics just like we do here. We got down to the last two weeks and the guy had a 6 pick lead, I was 2nd. So what this guy did was wait until I made my picks, and then he just copied my picks except for one - so they were not 100% identical. The last week of the season I did a test - I picked some KNOWING they had NO chance of winning - and this clown made the same exact picks. With a 6 pick lead, there was no way anybody could catch him if he just copied the picks from the person closest. When you play with Yahoo, you don't see the other persons' picks until AFTER the games. YES< I know we play for fun here, but we also play for a chance of winning, I'd be all-for making picks here, and we can beat up each other and make fun of some other folks' picks like we always have - but make your REAL picks on Yahoo - meaning what you pick on here does not have to be mirrored to your yahoo picks.

Vote question for Nicholas and Willis: If anyone else wants to join starting Week 2, should we let them in and we throw out OUR worst week of the season?

We always did percentages in the past due to people missing various game picks, as long as that percentage isn't based on like one or two weeks of picks then I think anyone who wants to join should play.
We did NOT do that in the past, a couple years ago I missed week 2 totally, but my winning percentage was the highest, and even with missing 16 games, I only lost by 2 wins. I don't think you can miss a week or two and still be eligible, because if we could, if I had a high winning percentage, I'd simply skip a few weeks, as opposed to possibly losing a bunch of games. I've seen guys do this at local racetracks, one guy won the NASCAR Region he was in by skipping the last weekend - he had enough wins to be eligible, and could do nothing but hurt his chances by possibly losing the last weekend of racing (losing just one of the last 3 races would have cost him the region - and $100,000). I'm not trying to make a big deal out of a stupid game, but I want to be fair to everyone.
