You might want to rethink that little scenario as long as Wacko Flacco is at the helm. That boy stank.
My immediate supervisor is a die-hard Ravens fan, so I decorate his office door with all manner of derisive images (dead ravens, Poe saying "nevermore", etc.) when they bite it.*
*That is, when my Vikings don't stink up the place and give him a free comeback, like this week.

Eager to see how the faltering Pats stack up to the depleted Bucs. Eager to see how my picks stack up against everybody else's picks. Another week of football. Yay!

Picks are up.
Also Court Jester never got his picks to me. By rule that means he forfeit's the first game. I realize though that now he has an advantage picking the rest of the games. What do the other players want to do?
The options are basically:
1) We let him pick the rest of the games as per usual.
2) We select the picks somehow (i.e. random, home team always, etc.)
3) We forfeit all his other games.

I go with (1). At the end of the season, perhaps the overall winner could be determined by a player's winning percentage rather than simply most wins, to allow for those weeks when this or that member doesn't get a Thursday pick in on time (assuming everyone otherwise participated each week).
That, or dress him in pigskin and make him run amok in Mecca.

I've never had a problem with complete forfeiture if your picks aren't in by the deadline. But then, I've never had a problem with allowing late picks for the remaining games either, After all, it's all in fun. So, I guess I'm no help.

Let him pick the rest. It's all just in fun anyways. I know I've come awfully close to missing the time, if I don't get your messages to remind me to send my picks in, I'll most likely forget.

Some good news for the Skins, there is a 100% chance they cannot lose today. Ok, that might have to do with their bye, but still.
