All will be well when I finally convince ameritech that I will actually pay the internet bill if they agree to give me service. Right now I have to convince my dad to sign on for the thing too.

You know how the newspapers make such a big deal about college kids owning credit cards? Well I've found out why, it's because without said cards there is no credit history and hence no way you can get what you want when you get out of school unless daddy signs off on it.

Hey folks, just a word of warning - the make picks list at CBS is inaccurate. You better check each week which game is actually the MNF game because that game is not at the bottom of the list at CBS leaving one with the impression a different game is scheduled for Monday nights. I only caught the mistake because I was at another forum where the correct game was listed for Monday...

I'm only being anal about it because some of your displayed names drove me nuts last year in compiling team scores. No team code in the name, foreign-looking real names... that's part of the reason why my updates stalled midseason, because some people's inability to fill in ONE LINE in a form correctly made the process take that much more time.

The only ones who are driving me crazy right now are the blank ones. It's apparant that everyone else except Mr. Massetti (I know who Mr. Oles is) has at least made an effort to make my life a little easier.

With a Thursday night game to kick off the Season, not much time remains for people to sign up if they want to play the entire year. And it still looks like some additional teams can be formed based on the solo entries remaining.

And is anybody going to watch the stupid Entertainment show preceeding the game... I don't think many real football fans give a damn about watching a music show prior to a football game. I think ABC is unclear of concept on this one.

Under normal health circumstances, you can count on me playing every week.

Are we hedging each other's picks BTW? =)

Who knows... Maybe you were supposed to be.
I just printed out what was already in the system so people could see what was there. I found it hard to keep track of who was one on which team based on some of the posting here... (in other words, too lazy to read them all )

Zopp...if you know of some great mathematical formula that will allow us to maximize our picks, by all means, share (via PM of course) it with JohnT and I.
I actually thought about that...but being a Liberal Arts graduate, I have a similar aversion to statistics as the undead do toward silver.
