There's two ways to remedy that....
1) You can "subscribe" to this thread, which gives you an e-mail notification of every new post to the thread. The downside to that is you'll get notifications when everyone else submits their picks too.
2) e-mail me at
fbpoolgame@comcast.net and request I put you on the weekly distribution list. I send out a notification when I've posted each week's Game Open announcement, when the deadlines are, and a direct link the Game Open Announcement post within this thread. When the regular season starts, I often send out a mid-week reminder as well (usually the night before the deadline), for those who wait till closer to the deadliine to submit picks. If you go this route, make sure you let me know your username and which board you are on, as I use this e-mail address for all three boards.

I have a special request for those who prefer to submit their picks by bolding thier choice for each game.
This year I'm using a laptop, and I guess the smaller screen (and my elderly eyesight) is making it very difficult to distinguish the bolded picks. If you could use a different/additional method to hightlight your choices (such as underlining, different color, etc) it would help me out a lot!
Thanks!
