    Lost on Green Bay over Cincy.

    Week 2, really?

    I'm as big a Packer fan as you can be... and I took Min over Det... In fact... I think I'll wait on picking GB until they play Detroit themselves... though they play St. Louis this week. That is tempting :)

    Green Bay couldn't beat Cincy at home, so I'm not sure if they can even beat lowly St. Louis on the road. I'm a Packers fan, but I'm going to shy away from picking them as long as I can (or at least wait until they play Detroit at home). They're just too inconsistent.

    ^The Rams spiraled out of control in a hurry. It's amazing how bad they are.

    Went for the obvious New Orleans over Detroit in week 1, then decided to take a chance on Green Bay over Chicago. Now I have one less set of picks to worry about already. :lol:

    Crap... forgot about my Survivor.... Don't know why they don't put it on my Fantasy Football homepage, but I digress. Pick was due by kickoff of the first game. You'd think they'd let me just pick the Cowboys for tomorrow... but alas, I guess I'm done :(

    ^Same thing happened to me last week. It's pretty lame that the picks are due at the start of the 1 PM games. The commish should look into fixing that.

    I guess I can't change those settings now, but to be fair to me, you guys have a whole week to just pick one team. It's not that tough to just remember to pick one team each week so I really don't understand what the problem is.

    It's surprisingly easy to forget to pick a team every week. Between my own college and pro picks, the Underdogs and Favorite pick sets I fill out every week, and my fantasy team thats a lot of football to keep track of. Especially when I don't really get into the pro groove until Sunday, since I look forward to the college games all week long.

    For me it's just that I initially bookmarked my Fantasy Football homepage... it would be nice if my Survivor League showed up there... I noticed if I went up a level it would show up on the all fantasy sports page or whatever it is, but I guess it's irrelevant, too late now!

    Another feature that maybe would've helped would be to let me do my picks in advance... I realize it's a little problematic since you can only use each team once.

    Oh well, both my fantasy teams won, and in my money league I'm 3-0 so I can't complain too much!

    Did you guys sign up to get daily reminders each week. Mine typically comes on Friday, even though I try to do the pick-em and Survival all at once, typically Wednesday or Thursday of the week unless there is a Thursday Night game.
