well fellas (and ladies)...last year I got the impression that we have plenty of NFL fans here...so as I mentioned last year..I thought I would open up an NFL Pick em contest, via Yahoo..just for us....and perhaps start a tradition here.

It's VERY simple to join..and quite a bit of fun.  All you have to do is choose which team you think will win, by filling out a pre-made online form each week.  that's it.  No odds..no point spread..nothing like that.  just click the team you think will win the game that week.  the only game you have to guess the score of..is the Monday night game..as they use that for a tie breaker.  All you need to do is sign-up at Yahoo for a FREE ID..then follow the links I set up here, to our actual Pick em group.  I've been hosting these for the last 9 years..and it's actually a lot of fun..and that's what we play for..fun.  no cash involved..no wagering.

the name of our group is: AcesHigh Pigskin Pick em.  we can have up to 50 players..so everyone here is welcome...even if you are a closet NFL fan..this is all just for fun..

as I said..you need a Yahoo ID..they are completely free.  If you do not already have one..click here to sign-up. https://edit.yahoo.com/registration?.done=http://help.yahoo.com&.src=yhelp&.intl=us

Once you have your Yahoo ID, simply navigate to this page: http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem/register/joingroup  

just fill-in the "join Group" information on the right.  the Group ID is: 14175  the password (lower case) is skuzzy

Note:  when you are asked to name your "pickset group"  that is the name you want to use within the pick em. (I just used Zeta Nine) you can always chage it.

I'd love to get as many of us in there as possible....so by all means jump in and give it a try.. like I said..all you need to do is pick the winners at the beginning of the week, for the upcoming games.  it takes 2 minutes once a week.

I have it set for the weekly deadline to be five minutes before the first game each week, so you are able to go back in and tweak your predictions.  tuesdays are a good idea to do your picks..as some games may be on a wed or thurs.

Also...feel free to invite any of your friends or family as well.   See you all inside !!!
