Due to Hurricane Ike, those that did not make a selection in time or at all during last week's picks were given a bye for Week 2. You must make a pick before the first games begin this Sunday in order to stay in the game. Those that picked successfully last week will be given a bye during Week 3 so your next pick is due on Week 4. Sunday games and Monday games have been staples of NFL football for quite sometime but recently the NFL has injected a Thursday (off-day) game in several weeks during the season and there is a Saturday game during the season this year as well. I'm going to change the rules a bit because I heard several opinions about the off-day games last year. Please read below. RULES: If you choose to pick an off-day game (Thursday/Saturday) then you must pick that game before its start time. If you do not want to choose that game your pick must be in before the first game on Sunday. If your pick is not in by the time the first game on Sunday starts then you will be dead in the competition. If the team you pick loses, you are dead and may not participate again. If your team survives, you live to pick again next week... BUT...you may not pick a team you have already used during the previous weeks. Should you survive but forget to pick again the next week you will also be dead.

Can you post who got eliminated every week? It gives me great joy to see who I have vanquished each Sunday.
I usually just delete those names to make the spreadsheet less cluttered. I'll see if I can dig up one of the earlier ones though.
I've only gotten 5 picks out of the 13 who were given a BYE last week. If you see any participants who were given a BYE last week, please remind them to make their picks. Thanks!
Seattle for me as well. Seattle sucks but at home vs. a pathetic St. Louis team, this is the best week to pick them. Thanks for the bye BTW.
