Alrighty everyone,

Today's the big kickoff day, the start of the best of the five seasons!

If you have an initial by your name and have any trouble logging in, try putting a space between your name and your initial. If that's not it, be sure to let me know right away so we can get you hooked up.

Today we are at 67-69 players. WOOHOO! That's a new record for TWFP. Still waiting for 100% confirmation from one of them. And l haven't heard from four of the regulars that were IN last year. We might get to 70. That being said, let's all welcome three more new players to the water, Fred, Maxx and Pam T. Thank You for your contribution!

We will have five payouts again this year. The weekly winner will get $125 duckets, and the rest of the ca$i$h gets dished out accordingly. The overall winner and Champion of TWFP 2024 gets $600, and the remainder dished accordingly. But more importantly, the overall winner gets the 2024 Champions trophy to put on their mantle with life's other great accomplishments!

If you have anyone else that wants to jump in the pool, tell them to send me an email and ca$i$h, and I'll sign them up.

We accept entries up to Week 4. If we have any, they will get the average score for the weeks they were not in. The entry is still $125.

If you're getting this email, but you are OUT this year, please send me a reply and just say I'm OUT. It's no biggie, just want to be sure and stop harassing you.lol

Just a reminder, you DON'T have to make all your picks before the start of the Thursday game, but they must be done by kickoff of the Sunday game(s). Pro Tip: You can flip your pick and points around as long as the game(s) hasn't started.

Okay, the Commish is feeling as confident as LSU was before the last minute antics of USC, so I'm hoping for a better start than my college team, AGAIN.

As is tradition, Second place luck to you all this season,

Larry E

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

The spreads are set on the website and the Week 1 pick sheet is attached and pasted, so pick away.

A note for all the first timers, the pick sheet is just a guideline, the website is the bible. So if I make a type-o, go with what's on the site unless I send out a correction.

A reminder, the Thursday and Friday game(s) are optional to play and ALL picks must be done before kickoff of the game(s). Some people like to do all their picks at once, and some like to wait until Sunday. What ever suits your fancy, just get them done before they lock or you will get zero points for that game. No excuses for sleeping in or the dog eating your pick sheet.

Once again, let's welcome all of our new players Dylan, Eddie (P), Jerry, Randy, and Sean. And let's welcome back to the water Antonio, Gary C, Jeff T and Sam K. We thank you all for your donation.lol

OK, first game is Thursday night Ravens @ the CHEFS. If you're playing that game, get your pick in before kickoff. And a reminder there is a Friday night game this year Packers @ the EAGLES.

If you're still on this email but have not replied, please let me know if you're out, or let me know you're going to be IN with the IN crowd.

EVERYONE PLEASE LOG IN TO MAKE SURE YOURS IS WORKING.

Any questions, send me an email, text or message by carrier pigeon.

Second place luck to you all this season.

Larry E

Coming soon.............................
