Pickem League Enhancement - picking before and after the Thursday game

A pickem league manager had a good suggestion to not require all picks to be submitted on the pick sheet, so that a player could pick the Thursday night game then later the Sunday games. I have made this change.

For managers who want this, I recommend setting the grace period to 255. I'm presuming such a manager will have the league's pick deadline on Sunday (the default is 11am Sunday MST). If a player makes his Thursday pick early in the week, and the grace period is still at the 12 hour default, then they'll be blocked from making further picks once the grace period expires.

Will that work for confidence league?

Hey Jay,

Not yet. I'll add this tonight.

Any thoughts on whether or not this should be a feature that can be disabled by the manager? I don't see a whole lot of value to this, since a manager can always set his pick deadline to right before the Thursday night game if he wanted to foce everyone to pick all the games at that time. I guess one value would be if a manager wanted to force everyone to make all their picks when they first submit them, but still have the ability to edit the Sunday games up to the deadline.
