"You heard it here first... Titans beat Miami!!" [Baltimore] --Vetri

I heard it there last, too. It's called the bandwagon, people. Bandwagon. Write it down. And get on it. Never has picking with the crowd been so successful to start the season.

"Lemmings, we." [Miami] --Nathan

Lemmings, bandwagon, Philly-in-week-4, whatever you want to call it. It has picked up a big head of steam and is barrelling across the screen.

"If only I could pick Indianapolis every week." [Indianapolis] --Taylor~G

Well, you can't. I think we're all up to speed on that rule, right? Don't pick the same team more than once during the regular season. The computer won't stop you from doing it, so keep an eye on your previous picks. And I won't stop you from doing it. I want you to lose. That hurts, I know, but suck it up. I won't even notice, actually. It's up to the rest of the pool to catch you. That's one of the reasons your picks stay posted all season long. If you notice anyone's entry has a repeat pick in it, let me know and I will mark it as a loss.

That being said, we have some current standings to report. Happily, no one has been eliminated after three weeks. Not since 2003 have we had a full slate going into Week 4. There has been some separation, of course. We do have three tiers of players. Remember, your name will move down the screen as you accumulate losses. But don't give up all hope.As previously noted, if you survive the entire regular season AND post-season, but are not a winner, you get your entry fee back. This money will come out of the jackpot that the winner or winners receive. (I'll stop mentioning this now, but remind you again as the playoffs begin.)
