| Deadlines Pick sheets are due 1 hour before first game kickoff on Sunday. The pool has gone global so there are different time zones involved. To avoid time confusion its better if I use "1 hour before kickoff" There are some Thursday and Saturday games. For those games, submit picks for all games (1 hour before kickoff) and submit your changes of the remaining games by the Sunday deadline. Only the Thursday or Saturday picks are shown on the Player Selection Page until after the Sunday deadline. The pick sheet is posted on Tuesdays. You can submit your picks as many times as you like. I realize you might find out information after you submit your picks that would make you change a pick. I will use your last submission. The Players Selection Page will be posted just before kickoff. | ||
