Looks like last year over the holidays we did one long week from Dec 21-Jan 3. We doing something like that again?

I'm trying to plan ahead so I never leave myself completely screwed like I did this week.

Yeah, I think we should. Too much family time and travel, and I would hate to have someone lose because of that. Are those the dates this year?Any others wanting to chime in?

 
I'll chime in with Spartans has picked 13 winners in a row. That's pretty ####### impressive.

If ya'll want to do an extended run over the holidays, that works for me.

Looks like Italy is off from 12/23-1/6

Germany is off from 12/23 - 1/24 ffs

Spain off from 12/23 - 1/4

England off from 1/2 - 1/11

It is a nice run, but it may end this week. I left myself with poor choices.

Looks like all 4 leagues play the weekend beginning 12/20, so we could do that as a normal week, 12/20 to 12/23.

Then over the holidays, you have the EPL playing 3 rounds of games while everyone else is off, then Serie A and La Liga returning for the weekend of Jan. 4-6. So if we did 12/26 to 1/6 there would be lots of options.

Or if we want to make it super easy on people we could just do one huge week from 12/20 to 1/6.

 
Looking at what we did last year, I don't want to do it that way again. The holiday ran from 12/21-1/3, but then coming out of it we left ourselves with only two leagues to pick from in the first weekend of January.

 
Maybe have two, two week picks:

12/20-1/2 due one pick

1/3-1/16 due one pick

This way you have three leagues to pick from at least for the second round of picks

This sounds like the best version so far. I would like us to have at least 3 leagues to choose from any given week.Was also thinking that maybe we could do 3 or 4 picks between 12/20 and 1/16, but they could be at any time in the time period. That way we don't punish someone heavy in a specific league, as there will be plenty of games to choose from.

ETA: could also be funny to have someone forced to pick 5 winners in the 1/23 week after 4 draws.

Next time Im keeping my mouth shut and you can take the loss for picking a team twice

 
Ominous Johnson, with extreme hesitation will select AVB on the road and take Tottenham over Sunderland. With even more trepidation, Ominous Johnson will select West Brom over Norwich. Bad week to pick 2! Good luck Bonzai!

That's why I made sure to pick a winner last week.

You're tough, but fair.

 
So far I've used 1 through 4 in Germany, 1 and 5 in Italy, 1 and 3 in Spain, and 2,3,4,7,9,11, and 17 in England. I'm gonna run out of usable Premier League teams pretty soon.
