What started out as friendly competition between two good friends Huck Palmer and Tom “Puck” McKenna in 2009 they a third participant in Willie McGonigle. PFN now has Willie and fellow “Ted” Guy Anthony Franklin on staff. In 2023 at the age of 72 Ted Silary left this world and in 2024 Puck passed away. With the retirement of the PFN King of Predictions Protime Willie and Anthony figured what better way to honor their mentor Ted and friend Puck and fill the void left by Protime’s retirement then by bringing back the Picking Parade.
