I checked and it is set up so you can change picks up to 5 minutes before the kick off.
The reminder is sent on Fridays before Sunday,or occasionally if there is a weekday game you'll get the reminder earlier in week.:beer3:

zcaveman 08-23-2009 09:15 PM

Thanks. I probably should have tested it myself. Hope we get some more players. This can be a fun league.

ijusluvit 08-23-2009 10:02 PM

a perfect place for Pete'sPix!

villages07 08-24-2009 06:53 AM

OK, I'm in...thanks to Commish Eddie for setting this up.

Too bad they don't allow preseason.... I woulda picked the Skins vs Eddie's Steelers and been way ahead already. I'm surprised your team is not the RAMS, Eddie. Baaaaah

This should be fun....let's get some more folks in there.

Hey Eddie, what's the end of season prize for the person with the most winning picks?

MelZ 08-24-2009 07:54 AM

OK

I'm in also........can't wait for the season to start.

Or the Jets to beat Indy? :eek:

zcaveman 12-27-2009 08:26 PM

It was s rough day for picking today. I picked a couple of long shots and got shot down. AAARg

aln 12-28-2009 08:31 AM

I am guessing it's going to be just as tought next week.
Even tonight, the Vike-queens should beet da'bears but Lovie is probably fighting for his job and he can pull one out of his @$$.
And Bret really don't like the cold anymore and if any of you have been anywhere around Soldier Field in winter, ..... it ain't going to be pretty!

Go Pack !

Yeah, Indy threw a monkey wrench in the mix when they pulled their starters.Hope it don't come back to haunt them. Go Steelers!! Going to this game in Miami next week.Need a win and some help .

zcaveman 12-28-2009 10:55 AM

Looking at the games next week I wonder how many other teams are going to rest their starters. While it saves the main players from injury for the playoff run, it is not fair to the fans that go to every game wanting the win.

I agree; it is not fair to the fans and most of the players (at least that is what they say) don't want to sit out a game .They want to stay in the rhythym of playing every game

zcaveman 12-28-2009 12:49 PM

I did not get to see the Colts-Jets game, but in the highlights the players did not look happy (at least Payton) even though they professed that they were behind the coach's decision to take them out in the third quarter. I think they wanted the win.

As long as the Colts has an undefeated record they should have gone for the win. Imagine if Shula would have rested his players. They would have never had the undefeated season. Same with Belichick. Unfortunately the Giants spoiled that for them!! :pepper2: But at least he tried.

JohnN 12-28-2009 03:35 PM

well, I see both sides, and I guess it's the coach's call.

If it were my team, I'd likely go for the win but not at all costs.
Any players less than 100% would sit, and if I had a lead, I'd sit starters too. I think the Colts pulled 'em all too soon.

But, it's the coach's call.

ijusluvit 12-28-2009 05:36 PM

So - did you get that one right? I figured that even the second string of the Colts could beat the Bills and the Jaguars could beat the Browns.

Boy was I wrong!!!
