Sorry I haven’t updated it. I was going to come up with a webpage or something that displayed this data ellegantly, but I’ve had a busy week. So for now I’m just going to manually track it in posts. For now you’re going to have to keep track yourself who you’ve used before so you don’t use them again. Score for this week: 1. RNATB Hasselbeck 279 Holmes 131 Benson 76 486 t2.

Anyone else who sees this who hasn’t played yet, feel free to join. We’ll be dropping a week or two at the end of the year (your worst week - like how the system works for pick 'em pools) if it’s cool with everyone, so that one or two missed weeks won’t put you out of the running. Just go ahead and post your week 2 picks. ---

Total after week 2 (I’m trusting people’s self scoring to be accurate, and I appreciate them): Week 1 + Week 2 = Total 1. RNATB 486 + 471 = 957 2. Lieu 444 + 405 = 849 3. Varlos 414 + 427 = 841 4. notfrommensa 438 + 311 = 749 5. SenorBeef 355 + 328 = 683 6. Wilson 444 + 155 = 599 7. Omni 384 + 0 = 384 Again, if anyone wants to jump in midseason, feel free. ---

First time in like three seasons Jennings doesn’t catch a pass. For week 3: QB: Aaron Rodgers RB: Fred Jackson WR: Randy Moss, who will proceed to somehow have negative receiving yards.
