    Yahoo is back this year after not having a contest last due to the Pandemic.

    We have always used confidence points. Last year we used ESPN and no confidence points.

    Our group seems to becoming smaller each year. Any thoughts one way or the other?

    I would appreciate your comments,

    Thanks, Don

    Don't have strong feelings either way.

    Looking forward to it though! :D

    I've played both for years and slightly favor ESPN but not enough to have a preference. I'll go with your decision, Ralph.

    Either is ok. I have a slight preference for not doing confidence points.

    I would like to play with no confidence points for at least one season to create an educated opinion on which I like better. :)
