UPDATE #1: All wild card picks are in the comments. _________________________________________________________ UPDATE #2: Executive Committee update and statement regarding weekly winners It is a long-standing rule that the three bonus points for the POTY are not counted when determining who had the best week of picks. However, I did not include any indication in the spreadsheet as to when somebody’s weekly total included a POTY and so this rule was neglected when we were figuring weekly winners. Three weeks are affected: W12: Thatsfine scored 8 with a POTY (and Ben had 7 with a POTY) but Troy had 6 without one so Troy should win. W13: Jmac scored 7 with a POTY but ChuckKoz and Agnes both scored 7 without so it should only be a 2-way split between ChuckKoz and Agnes.  W17: I (OXR) scored 9 with a POTY but discounting that six (!) people all scored 6: Patridge, Ben, Nick, Matt, teddycuddles, and me.  Also since the first list was posted, in W18 Patridge and Squeeky both scored 7...

 Hey guys, looking to the standings we have Ben as the regular season winner and the following playoff participants:   1) Ben  2) Teddycuddles  3) CapGG  4) Thatsfine  5) Nick Harlow  6) AmplifiedEsq  I will lock in lines tomorrow (Friday) and have all the specifics, but wanted to get this up to see if anyone disputes scoring/contestants.   Thanks everyone! 

    ***IMPORTANT PLAYOFF/PAYOFF INFORMATION*** Somehow the longer NFL season still flew by on us faster than we wanted, especially for some members of the Executive Committee, and the playoffs is nearly upon us.  So after deep analysis, the Executive Committee has decided SIX (6!!!) competitors will make the prestigious Cheddar playoffs , with the standings being finalized after the play of the week.  Six is a few more % wise than the normal 10%, but with a lower turnout in this reboot year it seemed a Top 6 Playoff is the way to go. We started with 29 participants in Week 1, 21 were making picks as of Weeks 11, and 18 have carried through every week.  We still need to do a tad more housekeeping on the financials, but I am currently operating on the notion that we have $2000 of received.  Therefore, subject to minor changes, the breakdown will be: $1200 for 1st place, $300 for 2nd place, $200 for whoever is in 1st place after this week's regular season...
