    I'm fine with the way you run it now.

    I've only suggested using an outside site because i'm a 'work smarter not harder' type of guy. The only advantage for us would be to see all the picks on one screen with the results coming in as they happen

    I'm quite fine doing it the way we do it so long as Eric doesn't get overwhelmed. I've run something like this in the past and its more effort than folks sometimes realize. Eric devotes a fair amount of time and does a great job.

    And damn the Steelers for lolloygagging on their final drive last night and letting the clock run out when they could easily have gotten the back door cover.
    This weekend we rock Portland

    I hear ya, horos

    I still think there could be some benefits from that site

    I will watch it more this weekend

    As far as picks on one screen and live results

    I assume most of us here print out everyone's picks at 1 pm and get live results as we watch games

    I have my picks scribbled out on something -- usually a sheet with other bets, my 3 fantasy teams & who I am matched up against --- and it gets folded up and rammed in my pocket.

    This weekend (Vegas!) I will have the morning action slips buried in my pockets. ;) Missing the afternoon games as I will be on a plan back, no doubt rocking myself back and forth in my seat and bemoaning all of the foul shit I put into my body over the weekend and how poorly it made me feel.

    Thanks ponce, tailgate whiskey's on me in Worcester

    And thanks to all who do appreciate this league

    But if you knew me well, the very last reason I want to run this is for praise

    Who else is in for Worcester?

    The ones I know of are

    Vermont21O
    Ea sports

    The 4 of us will have to try for a quick meeting before the show

    Thanks dude, my liver & kidneys hurt already. Hoping my college bets return some $$ for me.

    I'm fine with the current method too, just thought the other site would be easier on you because I imagine this is a lot of work to keep track of everything. The only other advantage I could think of is there would be less chance of an error keeping track of who won lost and the standings.

    I have no issues doing it this way. I like it. And I appreciate this is a labour of love for you.

    I don't like change either, so I'd vote to keep doing it this way.

    It's a labour of love fore me too. I use pen and paper and have my clipboard, lol. It's like an assignment, but I love it.

    I agree, but I'm down for whatever makes sense for everyone!

    I drank the nasty green fucking eagles juice yesterday. you had me fooled mike Vick. I thought you had something going when you beat the shit out of Washington. I thought San Diego beat u at your game. So surely, when faced up with old coach Andy Reid, you would step up and vet that high octane offense rolling and score 40. So I PM the Lm, I proclaim proudly to him, "ill take Philly tonight." I wasn't worried about 3.5 lousy points. Chip Kelly has you ready. And what do you do??? 3 interceptions? 2 lost fumbles??? you almost destroy shady McCoys leg (ok, I won't blame you for that.) You shoulda been a running back. nevermind, you would have only lasted a season or two.

    I won't get fooled again.

    I'm doing GA at both Worcesters so I assume I'll be in line, depends on what the ticket partners want to do as far as how early to get in etc.
    Hartford I have reserved so I'll be able to hang at the pre party or some other place beforehand for sure.
