I've been waiting for FrankZ to get the pool started this year but he's mia, so I'll get us started this year. It won't cost you a cent and you just might win a prize...or at least bragging rights for a year.

Click on the link below and join in the fun.

http://www.surrealistic.com/cgi-bin/fball?createlogin+18

The group name is Club Polk
The password is vmseries

The rules are simple...you must be a member of this forum to join.

Please use your Club Polk Screen Name so I can verify that you are in fact a member here.

Deadline for picks is 6pm EST Friday, we will do a two week drop, and game winner after point spread.

Trash talking is expected.

What's in it for you? The prizes are TBD and will be announced as they become known (donated). You'll also be entitled to a cool sig line at the end of the season.

Just like the SuperBowl...You can't win it if you aint in it!! Let's get this done.

Cheers,
Russ

    I'm in. I was damn near leading the thing after the first week last season, then didn't put in picks for roughly the next 16 weeks. . .

    I'll try to stick with it this year, but managing three fantasy football teams, commissioning for one, constantly needing to search for new / cool audio and video deals, and obsessing over what is a mediocre golf game at best leaves me with little free time for things like work and online CP football pools :)

    Well, I'll be the first to admit that last year I might have been a little too cavalier in my picks (you can't miss 4 weeks and expect to win), but I have to let you ladies know right now ....... the kid gloves are off, stock up on the Kleenex and on the Massengill: I have a feeling that you're going to be needing it !

    Thanks to Russman for setting up the Pool, this ought to be an interesting year. :)

    I just thought I'd post this off of the Pool site:

    "You currently have 0 wins and are ranked 1 in your group.
    (Score and ranking are based on your season totals less the number of weeks your group drops.) "

    So, who's #1 ? That's right ..... :eek:
