Deandre hopkins wr texans for me

 

[PatsFan1283]

Anyone else go him?

I was going to and decided against it. Nice call.

 

[LivintheFamilyLife!]

Had Foster & Hopkins last night, one of those 2 Strong td's for either would've been nice.

 

[HarryCaray]

I took Hasselback

 

[PatsFan1283]

Can we know who had who in the Thurs game?

With Hopkins going off and Foster/Gore being solid, I'd like to know how many had them. Would effect who I take this week.

 

[PatsFan1283]

Unless that info just shouldn't be known then obviously I'm fine with not knowing. Didn't really think of that.

Was there ever a ruling on that?

 

[kidman232]

ive never posted it before, so I don't plan on starting now. Ive been the only person to know so far, and some might say its an advantage, but I also have to post my picks for the world to see, so if I screw up, u all know I did. I just think its unfair that if everyone knows someone takes a qb/rb in Thursday game and they put up 10 pts combined, u can cost with your picks bc that person is in such a bad spot

 

[PatsFan1283]

Yeah I agree. I didn't think of that until after I posted.

Better off being "locked", granted you know but someone has to and that is the better alternative.

 

[HarryCaray]

As an aside, man I really love this contest. Great format.

 

[kidman232]

guys, most picks aren't in yet, so make those selections. once I post rosters at noon, ill be slow to update throughout the day, as Im hosting a house warming party

I am not in this league but I will bring this up as a hardcore rules and fairness person. I have been following this contest as it looks very interesting and has potential for years to come(bigger prize pools), so it is with that in mind that I make these comments and nothing else.

1. The coasting can go both ways. If someone puts up a monster qb./rb combo on Thur, THEY can use lesser picks on the Sun games. Its just the reward/risks of taking an early pick.

2. Even though you may be an honest person, the fact that you only know the Thursday picks does open up the possibility of collusion and impropriety. Who says that one of your coworker contests is not you or you team up with another poster to put in a past post, no one would know.

Once again, not saying you are or would do anything shady just commenting from a transparency point of view.
