2007 Pigskin Pick'em (Non-Spread) - 08/03/07 06:04 PM

ESPN Pigskin Pick'em (Non-Spread)

http://games.espn.go.com/pigskin/frontpage

Group: Gangster BB
Passw: Corleone

Since the Yahoo game DC set up uses the point spread, and since I play this ESPN game every year anyway, I've made this one w/o a point spread.

First Game: Thursday, September 6, 2007

Note: Apparently we can create up to 3 entries per person. Please do not have more than one entry in this group for the sake of GBB Standings. Otherwise, I will pick the lowest-scoring of your entries.

2006 Standings:
S/U: TU, JG, IC, DM
(ATS: JG, DM, IC, TU)

I'm in - I made my picks but realized I didn't join the league. I picked the Colts but although the game did not start it must have been locked. $\:\/$ Oh well even with a missed game I'm still ahead of Pork.

It is disturbing. And I'm not talking about fantasy games now, $;\)$

JG you know damn well how decent I've picked in the past. This season I am totally at a loss when it comes to picking every week.

JG, with your record I sure hope that your not only playing Fantasy Pick-em this season. $;\)$

(I even placed a moderate wager on them this week!)

You went 7-9 and you're making a big fuss? Getting only 7 right is more embarrassing than not playing. $\:p$

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, though -- it's not like you said you had a perfect week and "they" fucked up.

Re: 2007 Pigskin Pick'em (Non-Spread) - 12/26/07 07:01 PM

I appreciate it, but you really didn't have to count em if they didn't register with the league. It's not what I was looking for.

It was the principle of the league not registering my picks, not what the record was for that week.

I've had trouble accessing the ESPN website for several weeks now. So something probably went wrong after I made those picks.
