    That's my cue!

    Leaderboard as of games through Week 1:

    @Addi Ras - 6
    @FN-3263827 - 6
    @JeffG. - 6
    @SlugmanAttacks - 5
    @Cole - 3
    @DarthSnow - 3
    @Rogues1138 - 3
    @TheBBP - 3
    @Trevor - 3
    @Alamact - 1

    Recap:
    Rookies Addi and FN start strong out of the gate with some beginner's luck... or is it?? Along with Jeff G, the ol' wily veteran, those 3 went 6-1 and are currently tied for first. Rookie Slugman also had a strong showing at 5-2. Just about everyone else went 3-4 for the week, and Alamact puts the rear in Rear Admiral by going 1-6... ouch! Onto week 2!

    Thursday Night game:
    Reeks @ Zabraks

    Early Sunday games:
    Togrutas @ Droidekas
    Yodas @ Ewoks
    Mandalorians @ Wookiees
    Rebels @ Tauntauns


    Sunday Night game:
    Hutts @ Interceptors

    Monday Night game:
    Rancors @ Walkers


    Also, don't forget that this week (and every week from here on out) will include a Thursday game.

    Just a reminder that these can also be found on the main post, every week. Along with Past Results, and the Current Standings.
    Please feel free to double-check my math, I have been known to make mistakes... From time to time...

    Interesting choices the only ones we agree on are Dallas & NYG.
    I had a much harder time picking this week as the matchups seamed much closer then opening week.

    That's fine with me. The best part about the helmets is they look very similar to their NFL counterparts, so it is an easy transition. In fact, if everyone prefers I can probably post them that way each week (sometimes I am forced to use mobile though, and thats a bit harder on me). Although, after a couple of weeks, you'll probably find the team names becoming pretty familiar. Took me a little while but it gets easier every week.

    I just ran with my instant intuition. Last week I tried to overthink it. This time I just looked at the teams and ran with my first instinct.



    Watch me go 1-6.

    Absolutely. You can flip-flop as much as you want, up until kickoff.

    For example, your Reeks/Zabraks pick can change until 8:25pm EST tonight, your Togrutas/Droidekas can change until 1:00pm EST on Sunday, etc etc. As a "safety net" I recommend all picks be in by Thursday, but if you change your mind (or, a team's last minute injury report changes your mind) you can definitely edit your pick as long as it is before that respective game starts.

    thanks! i will give it some thought. i won with the Rancors last time but i chose against them this go-round and i'm thinking that might not be smart.
    it's nice to have until Monday to make up my mind. : D
