Deadline for picks is prior to tip-off but not later than 5PM

Please check & make sure your pick is included in the summary after the deadline

​

Here are The Rules if you have any questions. Sorry, we're not taking any new participants. And for current participants, please note that you must make a pick at least once every three weeks to remain in the competition.

Please use the colon after your moniker ... I use a macro to enter your picks on a spreadsheet and the macro relies on the colon to get it properly entered.

Today's games and spreads -- please remember that picks are due by tip-off or 5 PM, whichever is earlier. Also, if the game starts at 10PM (EST) or later, chances are the standings will be delayed to the following day.
