Here's the last one, I think....

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

Group Name: Gangster BB

Password: Corleone

All you do in this game is pick every NFL game each week against the point spread.

I was wondering about this one, cuz it's not listed yet on the fantasy index page that I could see.

I'm in. I've been playing this for years, but better step it up now that it's with you guys

I also play the college games, but do not compete -- I know almost nothing about NFL, let alone NCAA -- just for Uber, baby!



I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol

Hey plaw, forgive my ignorance but what does this mean?

S/U doesn't matter. It's all about ATS.

"Straight Up" and "Against The Spread"

In other words, it doesn't matter if you win or lose the game (S/U), what matters is if you cover the spread (ATS).

Apparently the picks don't lock until the game starts. You can still make changes for any games that weren't played yet.

---------

I'll tell you what is wrong. Look at the Group name. Somehow I screwed up and left the group. I am in 3 pickem leagues and I remember on one, I was trying to change my name. It must've affected this one too. Don't know.

So what do you think? I can get in I guess for Week 2...just don't know if I want to be 8 or more picks behind. I have 8 correct already, could be 9 tonight, 10 tomorrow. I'm just so disapointed in myself.

Can we have a handicap like in bowling?

I will decide tomorrow if I want to get in and start from scratch in Week 2. I wont think of that today. After all, tomorrow IS another day!

Back to the game - Denver just scored, the fat lady is singing in Kansas City and yet another loss for me.

I think when i created the group, I created a "locked" group that no one can join after the season starts.

I'll have to look into that in the morning.

I'll cop to being somewhat anal retentive, but I don't see how this particular example is indicative of that.


BTW, have I mentioned lately that you're a wuss? :p

In all my years of playing this game, I never knew a commisioner who did that....

- alert Jgeoff early next season to set up this game, like he did last year.

For now I will just play with my other peeps. With "normal" league settings....I was 9-6 going into tonight, possibly 10-6. You should have been at least a little scared.

I didn't want any members of our group, who were in another group and making some different picks and doing better, to be able to join our group with a better entry in mid-season.

Please post your picks every week. As far as I'm concerned, they count. And I'm the Commissioner, so what I say goes.

In other words you are afraid you might lose :p

Nope, doesn't sound anal retentive to me.

C'mon open it up if Buffy wants to play - I think you are still mad about missing the deadline for the Survival Games.

I thought that since I created the group, I could unlock it.

If you can, I can't figure out how. If you know, let me know.

Post my picks? What for? I don't belong to this group and I can't get in (thanks to you). Naw, I will be deleting that league and just playing in my others.

You're the Commissioner? Not next year if I can help it!!!!!

Well boys and girls, as you can see last year's champion has held on to his place atop the pile. Please, show some prognosticating prowess to provoke more than these paltry predicitions (helplessly hoping you don't).

Hey Bad Daddy... I see you picked Dallas to win Monday night, but you then predicted the score to be 28-22 Washington?

It looks like a tough week for pickin'. Now is about time for a few upsets. Can KC keep losing? Maybe Dick Vermin will get the message and get out. Will Philly get complacent? Are the Packers up to the Giant puffed up Strahans?
