Alright all predictions should be posted no later than 1 hour before kickoff of the very first game of each game or they will not be accepted(good rule?) The first game of the 2010 season is Thursday, September 9th @ 8:30 PM so make sure everyone has their picks for the week in by at least 7:30 on the 9th.

Allright sounds great then. ^^ so how many points do we get for picking the game correctly?

I'm partial to one per game. I don't know if anyone wants to add some scores into the mix, too, or not.

ehh calling game scores could be tricky. maybe whoever gets closest to the actual final score would get the points, my guess.

That's what I was thinking, if we did end up deciding to give points for that.

I agree with 1 point for every game picked correctly. The points will add to your total every week.

Scores should serve as a tiebreaker.
(Say two people picked 6 games correctly. The person with the closest difference to the actual total score of all 6 wins, would be the champion for that week.)

Not exactly sure how this would work. Care to elaborate?

I love how the Way-hyped players from 2006 draft class didnt amount to much. (aside from Mario Williams, Cutler, etc) Reggie Bush is still looking for the bust-out year, Vince Young already got benched and had to work back from that, now Leinart could end up as a Buffalo Bill or Raider. :/

You wanna know what bothered me most about the 2006 draft?
108 New Orleans (from Philadelphia) Jahri Evans Offensive Tackle
Bloomsburg
109 Philadelphia (from Green Bay via St. Louis)Jason Avant Wide Receiver
110 Cleveland Leon Williams Linebacker Miami (Florida)
111 Baltimore Demetrius Williams Wide Receiver Oregon
112 Cleveland (from Atlanta) Isaac Sowells Guard Indiana
113 St. Louis (from San Diego) Victor Adeyanju Defensive End
114 Miami Joe Toledo Offensive Tackle Washington
115 Green Bay (from Philadelphia via Minnesota) Will Blackmon
116 Tennessee (from Philadelphia via Dallas) Stephen Tulloch Linebacker
117 New York Jets (from Kansas City) [12] Leon Washington Running
118 New England Stephen Gostkowski Kicker Memphis
119 Denver (from Washington) Brandon Marshall Wide Receiver UCF
Jason Avant is a very good player and all but...they passed on Brandon Marshall to take him. It's quite disappointing, haha.

Don't forget Gostkowksi. He's arguably the best kicker in the league and he was taken one pick ahead of Marshall. (No. 118 overall).

Well we have David Akers, one of the most consistent kickers in the NFL so I'm not concerned with a kicker. Brandon Marshall on the other hand...oh what you could've been...

Dx oh man that is is disappointing. The Bengals have plenty of picks like that from the 90's though. :/ oh boy. Another great example would be the Falcons drafting that Brett Favre guy and trading him to GB...

The teams that couldn't draft right during the 90's were the Bengals, Cardinals and Jets. So many times the Jets could've stocked themselves with high-quality talent, but passed and took horrible players.

in the 90s the draft was barely an event like it is today. and if you remember correctly, that 06 draft was even more of a spectacle, it was in radio city music hall and it was televised on all the espn's.

And now the Draft is even more of spectacle. Three days, two nights of the NFL Draft. Enough football to hold someone over until...the first second of the preseason.
Then they start clamoring for the season to start earlier...

Big Bens suspension has been reduced from 6 games to 4. Just seen in it on ESPN.
