    Maybe better if we had a third party that’s not invested in this contest hold the picks privately :)

    Well he does have a point, in some scenarios it could benefit you to know what we're picking, if for say you are trying to hold off the close competition. Kind of like if we sent our picks to Tommy...... or me last year.:rolleyes: why didn't we send them to me last year? I could have used them for sure. Lmao

    Just kidding Smooty, I trust yao_O

    To be honest, I kind of look at peoples picks before I make mine. I don't really do any analysis or anything, I just look to see what team(s) is getting picked the most. Usually I put my picks in when about half are in, so I'm really only seeing about half before I make my decision. I don't really think I've ever based picks off of anyone else's though as I'm too stubborn. I just do a good 2-3 minutes of research, then just go with my gut feeling, lol.

    I’m always one of the first to post their prediction because I’m sure a huge number of posters are waiting to see my picks before posting. After all, I’m in 22nd place out of 33 and it looks like about 1/2 of the 11 behind me dropped out early. And I thought I was the smartest guy in the room.
    It’s still fun though, Smooty and you are appreciated.
