I know someone mentioned it last year, and maybe you did consider it. I thought you were going to drop the Monday night game. I know it's up to each person if they want to play or not, but I don't like that I'm forced to pick a game that I might not want play in the first place.
frankb & MtrCtyPimp both wanted no Monday game and i said i would consider it. I did and i decided i wanted to keep it in there. The whole object when i created this contest was to see how good you can cap any NFL game. I picked the MNF game cuz the spotlight is on that one each week. I also left it so that 75% of your overall picks were of your choice. I love how it is set up personally and i think it's actually fun seeing everybody pick one of the same games.

Being forced to handicap a game that represents 25% of you regular season plays is not capping. It eliminates capping skill and maximizes luck. MNF is often the worst game on the board. In 17 weeks last year I believe I liked my MNF play 3 or 4 times. The other MNF games were a guess. How's is that capping?
If you want to see how good a capper is let them choose the game. The hardest part of capping in last years contest was which games to play and which to pass. In the weeks I did well the games I passed did poorly. Conversely, the bad weeks the games I passed seemed to win.
All things said it was a fun contest and very educational.
