We decided not to do Thursday night games, partly so more people could sign up before Sunday but also so people wouldn't have to make their picks four days early before you knew more about injured players, etc. Plus, invariably people forget to get their picks in by Thursday and it throws everything off. Yeah, it kind of sucks to leave some games off, but there is less room for people forgetting and more time for people to sign up initially.

Didn't realize that Thursday games would be ruled out. Kind of odd, but I understand.
