For those who enjoyed Football Pick'Em last year, it's back again! We've created a private group called Freepers that you are invited to join at Yahoo. (http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem)
You need to have a Yahoo ID to join. Sign into Yahoo, and search on Private Groups using the Group ID #17380 and the password freepers.
The rules are the same as last year: Pick all 16 games per week, and assign each game with a confidence rating of 1 to 16. (Each game must have a unique confidence rating, duplication is not allowed.) You get the total of the ratings per week for the games you pick correctly.
Please note: Only the first 50 people to sign up are allowed in as Yahoo limits the size of the league.
Sign up now and secure your spot as the NFL guru of the Free Republic!
From Yahoo: "You have created the Private Group called Freepers and the Pick Set called Ravens in that group. To allow other people to join this group send them the Group ID# (17380) and the Password (freepers). Remember, it is the Group ID#, not the group name, that other people must use to join your group. Your goal is to earn more points than other people by selecting the winner of each of this year's regular season games."
LOL

why are you using yahoo and not ESPN? ESPN game can hold waaayyy more than just 50 people
BEEAAARRRRSSSSS!!!!!!
I'm in. I will bring my complete lack of football knowledge to this group, as I have already done with my fantasy team.
"why are you using yahoo and not ESPN? ESPN game can hold waaayyy more than just 50 people"
I just went with what was done last year. Not very original, I admit, but it seemed to work out fine. I don't know if we got to 50 people last year, although we had 40+.
Thanks for the tip - we can do EPSN next year, especially if we fill it up this year.
Thanks for the ping, Mike...Da MightyVikingWarriors are in da house!
Just don't invite them to your boat :)
I signed up. I couldn't come up with a team name, so I came up with the thing I'd LEAST like said about me. ;-) It will be changed when I am in a less-strange mood... probably after the move :-P
Hopefully, I can get to it every week again this year. I'm in.
Nasher is in.
This year we finish in the top half, lol.
There was already another one set up as well

I'm in and am picking. Now I have to remember to make my picks every week... LOL!
You will get an email from yahoo every week to remind you.You can pick what day they send the reminder to you.
Lets get those spots filled!
The Spiraling Colby is in the air once again. Damn, but I hate Week 1; it's impossible to pick these games ;-)
Nah, a few of them are pretty easy. I think the toughest game to call will be the Giants and Colts.
Simple; AFC :-)
How come none of you other dingleberries have picked? Waiting to see my picks?
