Starting this week we will be having Thursday Night Games on NFL Network. I will be putting up the Picksheets asap, usually on Tuesday evenings after I get home from work. If you want to select the Thursday night game you will need to submit a COMPLETE picksheet prior to the start of the Thursday night game. I realize this does not give you time to think over the remaining games but do not worry. After the Thursday night game is over, you will be able to resubmit a new picksheet before the start of the 1st game on Sunday to change any selections you want to adjust. If you resubmit a new picksheet after the Thursday night game, or if you choose not to se…

Many of us love Fantasy Football Leagues and Pick'em Contests. I created this forum for many things: Announcement of when the weekly picksheet has been posted and ready to use Announcement of winners from the weeks Pick'ems after the games are complete Discussion of rules for the Pick'ems & TalkBears Fantasy Football Leagues. Do you have questions about existing rules? Do you want to see changes made in the scoring system of the Fantasy Football Leagues, etc... This is where to post them... Want others from the forum who play Fantasy Football to give you their opinion on a draft you just finished? Have lineup changes you need to make and…

Congratulations for Staley for winning Week 12 Pick'ems! Lopaka & Ostrogoth come in 2nd place. Great job guys! On a side note, I come in last...

I may not get home until late tomorrow night, after the start of the game. The emails sent to me are time stamped so when I get home I will be able to upload all picksheets that were submitted after I leave for work tomorrow when I get home tomorrow night. I just thought I would give you all notice that if you do not see your sheets uploaded, they will be uploaded as soon as possible when I get home on Thursday night, as long as the time stamp shows it was submitted before the start of the game.

The picksheet for Week 12 is Ready! Remember - Thursday Night Game Alert! Good luck with your picks! http://www.talkbears.com/Contests/index.htm

It's bowlingtwig, no it's Madlithuanian, no it's bowl..... wait a minute.... I WIN - I WIN - I WIN BUT - Madlithuanian & bowlingtwig did come in second with 11 wins each. 6 weeks to go - it's going to go down to the last week. This is a great contest this year. An awful lot of players still are close enough to take the contest's first place.

The picksheet for Week 11 is Ready! Remember - Thursday Night Game Alert! Good luck with your picks! http://www.talkbears.com/Contests/index.htm

Buzzman2333 wins with 11 correct out of 14, NeoBear ties but takes second due to MNF total points tie-breaker. Great job guys! Now we get a full slate of games every week. Again, another Thursday Night Game!

Week 10 is ready to go. Remember - THURSDAY NIGHT GAMES! I detailed in the email sent and in threads in both forums how this works. If you still have questions, fire away! Good Luck! John - Pixote

bowlingtwig and Madlithuanian tie with 10 correct but bowlingtwig smokes Mad with the tie-breaker. Great Job guys!

Dear Pool Member, Week 9 Pick'em sheets are ready. Please enter your picks before the deadline! Good luck in the games! http://www.talkbears.com/Contests/index.htm. Thank you, Pixote

Just got a quick question for you guys... Right now I have the opportunity to trade Reggie Wayne for Reggie Bush. Now, I need a RB (I know he's hurt, but will wait 2-3 weeks for him as I'm currently 6-2 in my league), and still have Larry Fitzgerald, Dwayne Bowe, Donnie Avery, Devin Hester, and Steve Breaston at WR. And only 2 WR spots to play each week. So, would you do the trade if it meant your lineup will look like this in about 3-4 weeks when play-off time hits? QB- Cutler/Delhomme RB- Portis RB- Forte RB/WR- Bush WR- Fitzgerald WR- Bowe/Avery TE- Winslow DEF- Eagles K- Gould

Congratulations to BearFan2000 who wins Week 8 with 10 wins, and to Gakman23 who places 2nd with 9 correct selections! Great job guys!

One site I visit has some large spreads for week 9. None of these are official, however, take a look at this: I see CHI 13 point favorites over DET I see TBB 8.5 point favorites over KCC I see NYG 8.5 point favorites over DAL I see JAX 7.5 point favorites over CIN I see PHI 7.0 point favorites over SEA I see BUF 5.5 point favorites over NYJ I see TEN 5.0 point favorites over GBP I see IND 5.0 point favorites over NEP I see MIN 4.5 point favorites over HOU That makes 9 of the 14 games with more than a field goal spread. This is going to be an incredibly difficult week for Pick'ems.

The new picksheet for week 8 is ready. Please enter your picks before the start of the 1st game on Sunday. http://www.talkbears.com/Contests/index.htm Thanks and good luck! I am out for blood this week John - Pixote

Iguana - congratulations! You are the week 7 Pick'ems Guru! Jarrettsmama ties with 9 wins but loses the tie breaker! Great Job!!
