NFL 2008 "Pick'em Share Pool"

[Diesel]

Everyone should be receiving their invites via email. Sign up and get to know the site.

I will officially announce the payouts on Sunday, August 31st. There are checks in the mail that I can't refuse. The more money that comes in, is the more money we have for the prizes.

Right now, I have 66 Paid Signups. A new NFFC member just signed up today via Paypal. 70 is a very good "guesstimate" for this event, but 80 is a possibility.

Again, all invites have been sent, so once you've signed up, you're good to go. If you have more than one team, you need to create and alias. If you didn't get my email about creating your second team, let me know. If you paid for 2 teams, you have to log into the league a second team with your "alias".

Once you've signed up, all you have to do is get to know the site, and wait until the first game of the season. Then you wager your shares just like you would on a sportsbook website.

Nice 80, couldn't resist betting on this weeks Jets-Philly game. 500 units. I want to get a early lead.

Chill Marc, I'm joking.

John I disabled the pre-season games, so I know you're messing with me.

70-80 signups? That's $3500 to $4000! Is this money being held in escrow????

Marc, sorry we got cut off the other day-- cellphone coverage is a little spotty here. I'll give you a call on Tuesday when I get back.

Hey Marc
I haven't received an e-mail yet. No owrries as we have time, but just an fyi. Craig Williams [email protected]

[Diesel]

Craig, your email should be there now. I'm going to re-send your buddy Mike an invite again too. I probably typed in a few wrong letters in some of the email addresses in the invites...It's not easy sending out an invite to 60+ people!

Good luck Craig. If by chance it still didn't come, let me know.

Marc

[Diesel]

It shows I sent your friend Mike an invite. Let me know if he got his...If he didn't, I will re-send.

No it's not in escrow. I put it into a government savings bond. In 18 years, it will be worth around $8,000.00. You guys didn't think you'd get the prize money THIS YEAR, did you?

*In case anyone doesn't know me, RI Workhorse from the NFFC won my baseball pool just recently, and I had his prize money to him within 4-5 days. He had a NICE hit.

Marc, got it. I tried to register as a new user and it says my email address is already in use? Did you already register us all? What gives?
Thanks,
Craig
