Updates no more

You guys are probably wondering why there have been no updates, even with the first game of the season having been played only yesterday. Well, I regret to inform you that I do not have the time or desire to do the excel files this year, if ever again. Please be aware that all the information in the files (minus ESPN Insider and the SportingNews picks) are publically accessible, so it is not like this is private information I made public in these files. I will keep the old files up for archiving purposes.

Again, sorry for the upsetting news.

Updates for January 9, 2007

The week 18 picks file results are up.

The rankings file wont be changing anymore, all power rankings are complete.

Updates for January 7, 2007

Sorry for the delay.

I have uploaded the week 18 picks and week 17 final rankings.

About.com, Vic Carucci and Charles Robinson didnt post rankings following week 17.

And I just stumbled on SIRIUS Satellite Radio picks. So I have added a whole 12 columns worth of picks to all 18 weeks. Thank god they archived their picks!!!

Updates for December 30, 2006

OK, the new rankings and picks files are up.

I am missing the following picks (reason):
Dr. Z (he didn't have picks for week 17 last year...so I am not surprised)
2 pickers from AskTheCommish (the same two didn't pick last week...no surprise here)
IGN Man vs Machine (they havent been posted)
James Alder (they haven't been posted)
AOL Sports Bloggers Live (they didn't post last week either :P)
Mortensen and Golic at ESPN (I suspect they will be posted before the game tonite, I hope)

I will reupload the new file if I get any of these picks before the game starts tonight.


All download links for files can be found on the RIGHT side of this page.

Updates for December 24, 2006 #2

I have uploaded an updated Picks and Rankings file.

I had some mistakes in the rankings file. NBC rankings started in Week 7. I had accidentally copied a rankings from another column for those weeks.

I added NBC rankings to the picks file. Took a lot of work, but they are all there, PROPERLY. I had improperly added them to the picks file, but everything is fixed now.

Updates for December 24, 2006

The picks and rankings files are done.

TSN.ca didnt put up new rankings as the site said...
Hoge hasnt picked the JAX/NE game yet...
AOL Sports Bloggers Live seemed to miss out on this week again...early vacation I suppose.
