You are welcome my friend.

But I need you to trim one play off of your card for this week. Just three picks for these first two rounds of the playoffs since there are only four games to choose from. Looks like you are still used to submitting four plays from the regular season contest. Tough habbit to break!

If you insist, still going 4-0 though...hehe

I am getting nervous for the participants that have given me 4 picks (we only need 3) or who have not designated a LOTW on their cards.

Depending on which games are actually on your card, I will wait to the last second possible to get corrections from you. But as soon as the very first game corresponding with your card kicks off, I will be forced to do the following:

YOUR "LOTW" WILL DEFAULT TO THE VERY FIRST PLAY LISTED ON YOUR CARD, UNLESS YOU COME BACK AND DESIGNATE OTHERWISE

and

THE VERY LAST PLAY LISTED ON YOUR CARD WILL BE DROPPED IF YOU FAIL TO TRIM YOUR CARD DOWN TO 3 PLAYS TOTAL

Again, this is not meant to a negative consequence....but merely the fairest way possible to make your card legal (if it is too big) and to guarantee you a shot at the extra LOTW bonus point (if you failed to designate one previously).

SDS, Thanks for doin' this Contest. These things are always fun. And alotta work and potentially headaches for the brave soul who runs 'em. That's yoou SDS. Thanks.

Sure wish you would reconsider using closing lines in the future. These lines are movin' all over the place and most bettors will get something close to the closing line.

Anyway. My picks:

Atlanta
San Diego
Miami
Minnesota

Good luck.

Great thoughts buddy. I was just honoring the original way that MAC had set up the season contest. I like the idea of using a closing line due to extreme movement. The only problem that I can see is some people getting angry because the line moved too far for their liking (if their normal habbit would be to lock it in earlier in the week) or getting into arguments about what the fairest closing line was in regard to being WA and representative to all books.

But I am always open to ways to make things better. Let's see if anyone else chimes in with support or opposite points of view.

Glad you joined us in the contest and BOL this weekend my friend!
