Password: 123456
Make sure you're in all games currently available:
College Bowl Pickem
Fantasy Premier League: 9177/123456
NFL Pickem
NFL Locks
Salary Cap Football: 354/123456
Premier League Pickem (Unofficial)
In other news, with the NHL cancelling games through December 30th, Fantasy Hockey is one more cancelled game week away from being cancelled itself. Currently, week 12 would be the first week of the regular season with week 22 being the final week of the regular season. Week 12 is the latest a 12 team league could start and see every team play every other team in its league. I'll be monitoring the situation as best I can.

| What are you watching? |
10:48 AM ET on 6/1/12 by Jay Soester |
I put up a variant of this poll every season it seems. I wanted to put this up yesterday after the pair of OT games in each series of the night, but a busy day pushed it back.
Which Series Are You Watching?
- Stanley Cup
- NBA Conference Finals
- Both
- Neither
Reply to the poll thread with your answer's explanation. I'm curious to see if the answer changes by region of the country (or internationally).

| NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment |
11:26 PM ET on 4/24/12 by Jay Soester |
I'm looking for some help on an NHL & NBA Playoffs Assignment that's designed to help me test things out before setting up an NHL and/or NBA Playoffs Fantasy Game on the league website as soon as possible. The first draft for the assignment took place on April 12th, a day after the NHL playoffs began. I'm looking for at least six members to help me set up a draft prior to the NBA playoffs beginning and prior to the NHL's second round starting.
You can participate by sending a list of at least 60 (NBA) or 108 (NHL) players (making sure to account for any players that haven't been guaranteed of being in the playoffs or next round yet) or by replying with a draft time that works for you. While I'm not optimistic that my schedule will work to sort out a live draft in the next few days, I'm hopeful six other members can pair up at a given time. I'll also need help setting up a basketball excel file similar to the one for the NHL game that has relevant player stats for all players that can be drafted. Giving a list and/or participating in a live draft is worth at least 3 BP while helping with the file can be worth five or more.
For more information please read the first post of the thread and the most recent. If you have any questions, please reply to the thread.

| Public Service Announcement |
3:55 PM ET on 10/10/11 by Jay Soester |
As I sit here watching the Flames visit the Blues (I can't say I know why I am), I realize it's time for another public service announcement. The NHL Center Ice package has a free preview through Sunday, October 23rd for those with the capability to access it. That's two plus weeks worth of free games (dating back to last Thursday's openers). It might help me pass the time on Tuesday and Wednesday with the football void, hopefully it's of some use to one of you out there.

| What Are You Looking Forward To? |
5:38 PM ET on 9/4/11 by Jay Soester |
Given the busy fall, I was wondering what the league at large was most looking forward to?
- The MLB Playoffs
- The NFL Season
- The College Football Season
- The NHL Season
- The NASCAR Chase for the Cup
CFB Start: September 1st
NFL Start: September 8th
Chase Start: September 18th
MLB Playoffs: October 1st
NHL Start: October 6th
With college football underway and the NFL season just four days away, the busy fall season is finally here. Your can place your vote here.

| NBA Playoffs Pickem Results |
11:54 PM ET on 6/12/11 by Jay Soester |
This was just the third time since the NBA expanded its postseason format to eight teams from each conference in the 1983-84 season that the NBA postseason finished before the NHL postseason, excluding strike-infuenced seasons. If the Canucks win game six on Monday, the ending dates of the two postseasons will match those of 2002, the last time the NBA finished first.
With that bit of trivia out of the way, I can congratulate Skip Wilson for winning the 2010-2011 edition of NBA Playoffs Pickem with 43 points. He finished three points ahead of Kraig Monkman, who was the only member to correctly pick the Mavericks to win the championship. Mike Brekke (35), Tim Schneider (35) and Javier Martinez (33) rounded out the top five.
Mike Miles finished in 15th place for three championship points to gain three more points on Anders Nilsson after he finished in 32nd place. Miles now holds a 640-628 advantage with NHL Playoffs Pickem, NHL Standings Pickem and overall Standings Pickem & overall Playoffs Pickem remaining.

| The Finals Are Set |
6:32 PM ET on 5/30/11 by Jay Soester |
The Eastern Conference Finals wrapped up on consecutive days last week. The NBA's version finished Thursday night with the Heat beating the Bulls in game 5. The NHL's version finished Friday night with the Bruins defeating the Lightning in game 7. Both series concluded after their respective Western counterparts to set up each league's Championship series.
With the NBA's conference finals wrapping up before the NHL's, that increased the likelihood for a rare occurance- the NBA Finals concluding before the Stanley Cup is won.
