First Game is up!

Since NE beat the Raiders 30-20, the first game is up and some of you can see the leaderboard and how it is going to work throughout the season (for those of you that did not play last year)

and the overall picks

So far what do you think

Its weird looking at that list and seeing the amount of names i have never seen before.

All i can hope is that one of our "posters" will win this year again.

But it looks good again Mike!

good point jay..amazing how most won't post but will attempt to win money and look at women

Mike · September 9th, 2005, 10:51 AM

Yeah i have to agree, there are a lot of members taht are playing that have never posted, I guess it is just a chance to win the money....

I hope one of the regulars wins it also, kinda sucks that someone from the outside would have a chance but that is the name of the game

we shall see who really sticks with it though. I know that last year not everyone kept up becuase they forgot. I think the new reminder email will help that though

The reminder emails should go to REAL ranters only haha

Nice job Mike looks good!

I would just like to say in front of my Rant brethren here today that if I do better in this NFL pick em contest than I do in my Premier League pick em contest I will kick myself squarely in the nuts.

Thank you,
Gunnerman

and video tape it so mike can put it into his personal collection

BtownJay · September 9th, 2005, 11:25 AM

LOL!

At least you would kick my ass in that premier league pick'em contest. Seeing as how I could probably only name 2 teams in the league, its not saying too mcuh.

I think that the picks works great, we are still working on one small bug, it has to do with the closing time, it is not correct!

I would like to hope that others that are partaking in the pool will post

Gunnerman · September 9th, 2005, 11:27 AM

Hmmmm, didn't know Mike was into those kinda things, but hey too each his own I reckon! LOL!
