Alrighty now, we have our first tie of the year between Gary and Roger both ending up with 46. This is Gary's first 1st place since week 12 of the 2016 season, and Roger's since week 16 of 2018. About time guys.lol

In 3rd place with 43 points is one of the guys who was pulling hard for Philadelphia, last year's Champion of TWFP, Mike M. The other guy was Joe at 42 and 4th place. They might have been 1 and 2 if the Philly coach would have just tried to make the 1st down with 20 seconds in the half, instead of surrendering with a punt. If they make it, maybe they get close enough for a field goal and go in only down by 10 points. If not, Dallas doesn't have time to do anything and takes a knee at midfield. DUMB call Sirianni! In 5th place just a point back with 41 is Brian F, getting his first mention of the year. Honorable mention goes to the three Muskateers, Rory, Rudy and Steve G all with 40. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

In the overall points race, newcomer Jared M moves up one spot to 1st place, Joe moves up to 2nd, Rudy into 3rd and Jake FSF and Jozlyn drop to a tie in 4th. Just off the pace is Mike M.

OK, the pick sheet will be out tomorrow morning.

And just like that we are two weeks into the season already. And so far "Chick Power" is ruling the roost.

Taking 1st place this week with a strong score of 45 was Adrianna with two N's. She was third overall last year and had two first's along the way. She's off to a good start already and looks to continue her winning ways from 2020.

In 2nd place with 40 was the guy who had a perfect score of 55 in week one last year, and who is also off to a good start in 2021, Jake From State Farm. This makes two weeks in a row he's landed in the ca$hi$h. In 3rd place just one point behind with 39 was Sister Joy. 4th was a tie between first year player Jared M and second year player Pedro for President, both with 36. Honorable mention goes to John just a point off with 35. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

For the overall points total, Jake FSF takes the early lead, newcomer Jared M is one point behind in 2nd, and Jozlyn is just one behind him in 3rd. 4th place is a tie between Joe and Rudy.

I'm not really pushing, but if you have someone who wants to get in TWFP, they can join up until week 4. After that the field will be closed.

Thanks also goes to Randi who mentioned the incorrect score of the NE vs NYJ game. Usually someone will let me know on Sunday that there's an error in the scoring. You guys are slacking off.lol

And hats off to everyone for getting your picks done on time too. It's been uneventful so far and that's good for the Commish, even though it doesn't show in his weak scores.

OK then, tallyho and away we go! The pick sheet will be out tomorrow.

Alrighty then, here we go..........................................

The Week 1 pick sheet is attached, the spreads are set on the website and the games are ready for picking.

Let's all welcome back some experienced players, returning this year after a three year hiatus is Nancy E, and two guys who sat out last year Gary T and Nate.

And some new players donating to the cause this year are David K, Jay T and Jeremy L. Welcome to TWFP.

If you haven't done so yet, send your $125 love letter or Pay your Pal. Address and instructions are in the Rules on the front page of the website.

If you haven't tested your login and password, don't wait until game time please. It should be your first name and zip code. Email me if you need help.

We have 49 players right now and I'm hoping to get at least 50 with some last minute entries. I will figure out the payouts once we have a final number.

If you have anyone else that wants in, have them email me [email protected] and say who they are and that they are IN.

As always, we will allow new and returning players to get in up until week four. They must pay the full entry fee and will be given the league average points for the weeks they were not in.

For those not in this year and receiving this email, I will take you off the email list after Thursday.

Remember to Pick Em Good,

Larry E

Well....... we didn't have a perfect score like last year, but Week 1 finished with a bang thanks to the Raidas and Ravens!

Coming in 1st Place with a strong score of 48 was our 2019 Champion, Jozlyn! It was back an forth all night, but she prevailed in the end and is off to a good start for 2021. Taking 2nd with 44 was returning member Nancy E who email on Thursday, "I'm so happy to be back in"! Well now she has 75 more reason$ to be happy.

In 3rd place with 41 was new comer Jared M who looked like he was going to walk away with it early on, but was let down by the Ravens. 4th place went to Joe just one point off the pace at 40. And 5th goes to last years winner, Jake FSF with 38. Honorable mention goes to Rick at 32. CONGRATS TO ALL THE WINNERS!

So a heads up on the point spreads. As we all know, the commissioner is a food broker, not a bookie. So there might be some type-O's now and then such as the AZ vz TENN game. It didn't matter because the Cardinals won and covered the spread, so the outcome would have been the same.

The commissioner has decided to spread the wealth and pay out five spots for 2021. Here's the estimated amounts based on 58 entries. 125, 75, 50, 25 and 15 weekly and 500, 300, 200, 100 and 60 for the overall. If we get more entrants before week four, it will adjust accordingly. The first payouts will happen after week four when we know the final amount of players.

So just a reminder, that people can still get in the pool up to Week 4. If any veterans or new people want in, you know what to tell them, I'M IN!

The Week 2 pick sheet will be out on Wednesday.
