Football Fans '08 Pick'em

[FUS1ON]

This is real simple to do and takes just a minutes each week to play, basically all you are doing is picking a winner for each game each week of the season. The season is starting very soon (Sept 4th) so sign up now if you want to play.

How to sign up
1) Go here http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem
2) Click on "Join a Group"
3) Enter the Group ID# and Password and click the Join Group button

Group name: Football Fans '08 Pick'em
GroupID#: 37468
Password: fumble


How to play:
- Out to the right of "Make Your Picks Now" click the Edit button for that week.
- Just pick which team you think will win the game by ticking the circle, pick a winner for every game shown for that week.
- Tiebreaker - (1) Predict the final score for both games shown, (2) Pick the team that you think will score the most points that week and (3) Pick the team that you think will score the least points that week.
- Make sure to click the "Save Picks" button when you are done.

I have it set so you can adjust your picks up until five minutes before each game's kickoff.

What sux is that I signed up picked my teams went back to pick them again last week and all of a sudden it said I wasn't part of any league... so I gave up. I really would have played the whole way through too..

[Bingo]

Man I sucked this past week. lol

[Grimmy]

Had a good week here, for not following any football at all, just guessing, I thought I did rather well :)

(I checked) Your right Pure. I guess, given the competition, I figure anything less than first is an embarrassment :P

I actually did well last week. Basically, last week basically cancelled out my horrible week from before.

I got 11/16 last week and 6/16 the week before. lol

[Bingo]

By the way, I'm gonna kneecap Grimmy's keyboard so he can't play this week.

Who's with me? :P

BTW- gogiants is my Dad.:jammin:

[BobtheCkroach]

Last week, I had Ronnie Brown and had him benched when he scored 4 TDs for a total of 50+ points.

This week I've got the privledge of having Brett Favre and benching him in favor of another QB when he scores 6 TDs and God only knows how many fantasy points.


Sigh.

[FUS1ON]

lol man that is some bad luck pardnar ... he put up 45 pts today. Right now at the start of the 2nd Q of the Chi/Phi game you trail Term 51 to his 65

[BobtheCkroach]

I was thinkin' the same thing. My only hope is that Pitt hasn't been playing real great lately, but for all I know I've already lost. I don't have the up-to-the-minute stats, so I don't know how we currently stand.

[FUS1ON]

That was a heck of a game you had, you almost took out Term who is the only unbeaten team left .... ala Jack killing the Giant so to speak. :D

But I still am ahead of Clean :P /RAWR

That's all I care about :jammin:

[Grimmy]

BLEH!!!! I forgot to make my picks this week untill tonight just before I left for bowling! :(

Clean, here's your chance to catch up :P

I guess to everyone else, fear me for the rest for the season, for I might have to research and make wiser decisions! :devil:

Cripes I sucked this week. :(

I actually made my picks last week, but they didn't register for some reason, so I got hosed out of my 2-4 wins :P

[FUS1ON]

There is a game tonight, get your picks in and your lineups set

[FUS1ON]

Reminder - There are Thursday games for the next few weeks so ......
