I’ll go ahead and get the new spreadsheet going. If you have yardage totals you haven’t posted yet, please do that now. ---

Does anyone know a good site to get a quick listing of the box score? [NFL.com](http://NFL.com) is slow and clunky. ---

I have most of the spreadsheet put together, just need to add a few tweaks later and an overall score thing. But so you can see everyone’s picks and scores I’ll put up what I’ve got now. Since the links should always point to the most up to date version of the document, you can always just use these links to see the same data. That is… so long as I end up updating the google docs pages. Last year I just had excel export the spreadsheet into an html format and hosted it on my ISP page with the personal webspace they give, but the upload function to that is broken ATM, so I decided to try out google docs. It’s kind of cool and actually if we wanted to we could make it a collaborative document and everyone could enter their own data. I don’t mind doing it though (especially if people post their own results to the thread) but it’s a cool feature. Anyway, here’s the [spreadsheet itself](https://spreadsheets0.google.com/ccc?key=tuHa4N9VyCs5BYA8GlHHZ0w&hl=en#gid=0) and here’s a [published web format](https://spreadsheets.google.com/pub?key=0Aiw9_uXziADKdHVIYTROOVZ5Q3M1QllBOEdsSEhaMHc&hl=en&output=html) of it. I’ll fix it up later. Oh, and I added both the raw score and adjusted scoring amounts to the totals below each player listing. The number below the player names column is the unadjusted score, and the number below the yardage column is the adjusted score. ---

Frank Gore has 16 yards on eight carries. Who are these people and what have they done with the Chiefs? ---

> [@Really\_Not\_All\_That\_Bright](#): > > Frank Gore has 16 yards on eight carries. Who are these people and what have they done with the Chiefs? Okay, he’s got 140 total yards now. Too bad only 40 of them are rushing. :mad: ---

> [@VarlosZ](#): > > Tony Romo > Adrian Peterson > Miles Austin 284 + 160 + 20 = 464 (322 modified). So, it seems we’re back to this. I can pick QBs and RBs better than most, but my WR picks just suck out loud. ---

I need picks for tomorrow, and don’t forget to list how your starters did this week. I’m gonna try to get around to fixing the spreadsheet formatting and stuff. I got civ 5 this week and haven’t done much non-essential stuff. ---
