Thanks to you and Greg for putting this together,i enjoy it even though i usually bankrupt early.
Good luck all tomorrow and GO STEELERS!!! I remember two years ago when the Steelers played the Titans in the opening game. Tom and I were both eliminated by HALFTIME.

At least this year we will make it to at least Week 8

Good Luck, my union brother Tom. Hey, can you talk to Mendenhall for me? I have him in an important league and I need a Pitt fan to have a pep talk with him. Mendy owes alot of us right now Brother Marc,and i think today wont be his day(jmo) but he will show up big time in weeks to come,and help his teams in the playoff weeks.
Today i think its wide reciever day in pittsburgh and there might be 50 pass attempts by the STEELERS.
Just my opinion,but i dont think we can beat the pats featuring mendy,and we will toss it up all day in a shootout.Should be a fun game to watch.

We currently have 47 owners signed up for the Pick 'Em Pool and I think I have 43 teams identified. I'll try to line everything up and if I struggle to identify those last four teams I'll send out a mass email. But I think we're in pretty good shape. I have 35 owners paid via PayPal and 10 owners who have said they are sending in checks. So we're close.

Make your picks now. We'll lock this contest once the 1 pm games begin today. We do have some PayPal expenses and we'll pay the site for the contest, but after we have that figured out all of the rest of the prize money will go to the Top 3 (or 4) teams. Marc can finalize those numbers; this is his contest. I'm just here to contribute and with my 3 picks today I might be contributing early!!

But it should be fun and less harmless than doing this with Vito!!!

Thanks all and have fun.

I echo Tom's thoughts, great contest thanks for running it again and hopefully I last longer than the first week this time! Thanks for running this Marc and Greg!

Glenn X...I just logged on for one minute. I don't have your email address. You've got to email me in order for me to send you an invite. You've got 55 minutes to get in touch with me and sign up. I'm here until 1, and then I'm out for the day.

Marc

Greg, I hope everyone signs up before 1pm...I won't go into Prizes again until I hear from you that the entries are closed. As soon as I get that announcement, I will post the 3 prizes on here and on the league messageboard.
