The NFL schedule is going to start including Thursday night games each week... For the Pro Football Pick 'Em, should we use them? Or leave them off so people have more time to make ALL of their picks?
We'll only vote for today and it will be decided!

I'd say include them, you only have to make the prediction for the Thursday game by game time on Thursday. The rest can still wait.
Besides... they should be coming and checking out BB every day

I have Thurday game included with this week's contest - but that does not mean it will count.
The tough part is I usually add the games on Tuesday (leaving two days to pick that one). I announce the contests to other tech sites on Thursday and to the Newsletter on Friday... Meaning I need to work faster. Not fond of working at all, let alone faster!

| it should count if it helps me win, it shouldn't if I forget to enter by Thurs night or if it helps someone else win. |

| I voted yes, but it's only to force myself to be more disciplined in submitting my picks on time. You do all this (much appreciated) work for us week in and week out, the least we can do is get our feces agglomerated in time for kickoff. |

I say let all games count.
Note that it could actually be advantageous to not pick the Thursday game - helps with the tie-breaker.
I encourage everybody to skip a few games this week to really help with the tiebreaker |
