It's only 20 days until the season starts.
We still only have 8 players involved in this thing.
I previously threatened to send out taunting PM's to get people to join, but I will call them out on this post.

Derris
Harry
Loogar

You all posted on the College Football Poll thread and talked about your teams, now you need to join up and play the game.

So what, I doubt any of the rest of us will prove to be better than 55-60% accuracy. Plus, as of now we are just playing for pride.

We now have ten players. I still don't know who hookedonstars or Ben toothlessberger are, but now at least we have a relatively decent number.
I'd be interested to see some of the ladies compete, since pick em seems to be one of those things a woman with little to no sports knowledge can dominate.

Um, did it delete me. I know I didn't test positive.

You weren't deleted, that list is the people who haven't joined, but should.

Just a friendly reminder now, if you would like to joing the Pickem you have a little over a week to sign up. We currently have eleven players. Remember the season starts Thursday night.

You can now start making your picks on Yahoo if you would like to, or you can wait until they post all the odds on Monday too. Once again, I still encourage people to sign up and take part in this little event. It will take you like five minutes to make your picks each week.
All you need to do is go to Yahoo, click on Fantasy Sports and find College Pick'em. I'm sure I have a link in the first post of this thread. All you need is this: the group ID # is 1454, the password is obner.

I think all the big NFL fans do a fantasy football league rather than pickem.

Done. It's time I showed you hacks what REAL incompetence looks like.

These are the only people to not pick yet for this week. I believe you have until saturday since none of these games are played until then, but you might want to get them in before tomorrow night.

Stop Breathin
Souvarine
Schadenfreude
Cap'N
Tommy Two Thumbs aka David Caruso in Jade.

so, games against I-AA schools don't usually have a line

does this mean we're picking those games straight-up?
