Not too late to join in, you'll just get a relatively small penalty for missing Week 1.

Sunday Night Game

Pittsburgh
Cleveland


Scores from week 1 will be posted when I get around to it.

CU Tiger and Taz got 34 points added for their missing game.

Everyone got killed on the Chicago-Indy game. Lorena got the best score for that game, 30 points. CU Tiger had the worst, 51 points, followed closely by JAG with 50 points.

The week's best score was PackerFanatic's TB-NO score (-4). Honorable mentions: SirFozzie NYJ-MIA (-1), gstelmack DAL-CLE (-1), Lorena KC-NE (2), sabotai KC-NE (2).

PackFanatic and nZane were both 3-1 in picking winners. Everyone else was 2-2 or worse.


I set up a spreadsheet to help make scoring the weeks go faster. Make sure you check your week 1 scores. It would have been easy for my me for accidentally invert a score (ie, count Indy's score fo Chicago and Chicago's for Indy's) or copy and paste a formula in the wrong cell, or mess up in making a function. So, make sure your scores are accurate.

Luckily, only a few people picked for the Houston game. I sent them PMs to pick for a later game. If they don't, I'll try to figure something out...
