    That happened to me as well several weeks ago, but I caught it before the deadline.

    I avoid Yahoo like the plague... this contest is the only reason I ever see that site, and they can't even get a football pick'em to work right!

    Not sayin' that you did the same thing...but once I accidentally exited the site without saving my work...thinking that I was done.

    JO'Co I have had that happen but caught it in time. When you submit check that it says complete in the upper left hand corner. At least two times this year I had to do it all over even though I could not find a reason.

    On those two occasions, I couldn't check. One was my trip to Alabama and the other was Thanksgiving week.

    Just a little joke thrown out to go with all of the interim coaches out there right now.

    Cindy Mc Cord wins this year's Yahoo College Pick'em contest! Congratulations Cindy.

    Tennessee Tom was a close second and Bear Down Rick finished third.

    Thanks to all of you Skyboxers who participated in the contest.

    Don, thanks for doing another great job this year.

    Interesting point --Cindy and Tom did not win a single week but finished 1 & 2.

    Being consistently good trumps being good one week but crappy another week.
