If anyone else is interested in entering our competition, if you get picks in for this week, since we drop everyone’s worst week anyway, you could still be in the running. Just post some picks if you’re interested. Remember that even if you miss the early games, you could pick from the afternoon games, or SNF/MNF. ---
