It's a huge edge that you get to see everyone's Thursday picks when the other contestants don't. For instance Ravensfan played the dud in McCoy(as did you) so all you'd have to do is match his stud play(Thomas) and try to outscore his QB and TE play, in this case he played Brissett and Dickson where you went with Goff and Doyle.

You know this when you sign up, and you have to trust the person that's running it. If you make a person's Thursday's picks available to everyone, that person is at a disadvantage compared to everyone else.

I have access to the spread sheet since week 3, and I don't look at it save to make sure my picks are right and then to see if everybody picked so I can post the plays here when asked to

I really couldn't care less what everybody else picked, I'm just trying to score 50 points and survive while trying to save some studs for future periods. Trying to get cute would only fuck me up

the good news is I got my laptop back from fedex this morning, so I'm back to 100%. most of the time my picks are posted in the spread sheet by weds (both my leagues are done now for this week). I might adjust if a Thursday guy of mine goes off, but you never know what someone elses team is going to do, someone mentioned brisset above, he threw for 300+ and 2 tds scoring 20+ points, you never really look at someones team and say ohhhh their fucked this week. with injuries, ejections, and game scripts the bottom person is always fluctuating.

as willie mentioned, in the beginning I was always shooting for getting to 45 points or more, now that the field is smaller and less chances of someone putting up a horrible score, I slowly start raising the points I'm shooting for, now I'm looking for low to mid 50's

Don’t think rosters should lock thursday
only issue would be with 4-5 weeks left. If everyone picks Thursday night qb except say me and Kidman. And qb goes off Kidman knows it. Not me. So might adjust picks.

So if change was made for next year. If at all. Not saying it should. Would be to expose Thursday night picks so everyone sees

if everyone wants all Thursday picks to be listed next year, I am definitely ok with that

then everyone who picks Thursday night players is at a disadvantage, because everyone can do to them what some are concerned that one man is doing to them, makes no sense

I think some feel like i have an advantage, the only advantage in my mind is if someone fails to turn in a roster and i posted an absolute garbage roster, but if u look at those weeks, ive lost good players. In the two years doing this league on here, i think ive gotten 2nd place and eliminatedin like week 5
