    Going to start a new game to try and get a second one finished by season's end. Tirboro and Guffy are still battling it out for a place on the prestigious honour roll :pac:
    Both of course are free to play this game as well.

    The honour roll:
    paulie21
    conor222
    Lionbacker
    adrian522
    mrkiscool2

    ________________________________________________________________________________

    Rules for those new to it:

    Every week you pick a team that you think will win.
    You cannot choose any team that you have chosen in previous weeks.
    If your team does not win then you are eliminated.
    Last man standing wins.
    Deadline is Sunday 6pm (or before KO if you choose a TNF game).
    Maximum of 2 winners we'll say.

    I'll just say as well, in case this game reaches that far, that if it goes as far as the playoffs you can't pick the same team as anyone else. The first person to pick after all the week 17 games are finished gets first choice (i.e. first come, first served with the reverse order the following weeks) and you can take your pick of teams.
    I'll iron out the finer details if we get that far. As long as we don't have more than 12 players (which is very unlikely) we'll get a winner.

    No Bills this week to spoil nearly everyone :)

    Not a lot of obvious ones except the Chargers and Saints. I'll gamble on the Texans to win in Washington..
