2nd Season of Freepers NFL Football Pick'Em!
www.yahoo.com ^ | 27 August 2006 | IMTOFT

Posted on 08/27/2006 2:57:07 PM PDT by IMTOFT

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."

This was a lot of fun last year and I wanted to make sure members of the NFL Ping List had a chance to sign up.

Good...it was fun last year. I forgot to fill out the confidence points on the first week and never could make it up.
This year I won't make that mistake again!

As a Redskins fan, I have the perfect system: Washington will score the least points and lose every week. Ha!

I'm in (CatSmack) and have never done this before. I have read the rules, but still have 2 questions. Are we playing with the points spread or not? And, if you enter picks, can you go back and change them before the deadline? Thanks.

No point spreads and you can change picks up to 5 minutes before game.

Here is the settings page for our group---

Our game is just a straight pick- no point spreads.
The confidence points are scored for each correct answer.
If you correctly pick that game you get those points you "bet" on it.
