It's Sunday Morning so you know what that means... scrambling to get your last minute bets and last second lineup changes in!
Nothing says football season like fantasy draft, parlays and teasers. For me, it's how I spend the final two hours leading up to the kickoff of the early games. After the mid-week waiver wire pickups are awarded I don't return to my fantasy lineups until game-day morning; there's really no point. Wait until there is a clearer picture on the week's worth of injuries and coyness from head coaches before you start dealing with questionable players.
As for the prognostications; I generally follow the same rule. I know that often times you can find favorable spreads early in the week; but for me I'd rather wait and find out if my key matchup for the game will be played out in the way I expect. Therefore, the 12:50 to 1:00 pm ten-minute window is normally filled with me furiously trying to get my last minute picks in. At the window, in Dover, DE of course.
So for all you last minute guru's out there, whether fantasy or money purposes, this series is for you. Fans first. Where we're involved in the gameday action, too.
Oh, and a little reminder: Don't forget to head over to KDP's 10 For 10 and either complete or start your entry for the Week Two Pick'Em Contest.
