Pick per Day - 11/28/09 (Day 19)

[Rick Mons]

Deadline for Picks is tip-off time for games before 6:00PM EST ... and no later than 5:00 for all other games.​

The competition is pretty simple but please check The Rules if you have any questions or aren't sure how to proceed. Also, please note that you must make a pick at least once every three weeks to remain in the competition. There's more in an Announcement about when we will shift to two divisions, etc. You can also send me a Personal Message or e-mail if any questions or problems.

Please use the colon after your moniker ... I use a macro to enter your picks on a spreadsheet and the macro relies on the colon to get it properly entered.
