Are we having a prediction comp?
I'm sure one you student types has enough time on your hands to manage it? Might be easier if you just selected 5 games to pick from.

I'm more than happy to manage it.

What are the rules? Pick the winner for each game and you get a point for every correct winner predicted.

Where the Titans hand the Raiders their backsides on a plate.

I did one on here last year but I can't be ar$ed doing it and working out the results again

I'll get on Yahoo later when I get back from work and I'll find the Pick'Em game, set up a league and post a link on here if people are interested.

I assume most people will prefer the spread format rather than simply picking a winner...?

Ok.

Here we go then guys, these are the televised games according to NFLUK.com, predict the winner. Obviously 1 point for predicting the correct winner and i'll keep the scores each week and report back!

Vikings @ Saints (Sky)
Panthers @ Giants (Sky)
49ers @ Seahawks (Sky)
Cowboys @ Redskins (4)
Ravens @ Jets (ESPN)
Chargers @ Chiefs (ESPN)

EDIT: If people would rather do what Adam suggested above (personally i would) then just ignore this.

Ok, I've set up a group. If you go to http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem you can join the league. The ID is 59748 and the password is nfl. I've also done a Survival League which you'll find at http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/survival. The ID is 25752 and the password is nfl. You pick one team each week that you definitely think will win. If you're right then you progress through to the next week, if you're wrong then you're eliminated. You can't pick a team more than once during the course of the season.

I'm in the pick em league but i have absolutely no idea what i'm picking.

For example it says Vikes @ Saints. Saints favourites and then 5.0 as the final. So does that mean if i select NO that for me to be correct they have to win by 5 or more and obviously if i select the Vikes if they win or NO win by less than 5 i'm correct.

Is that right?

Start your worst team please EPC.

Got some problems myself. Edwards and Sims-Walker are my 2 starting WR's but i can't decide between Keny Britt, Ricky Williams and Mike Williams for my flex spot. I'm leaning towards Mike Williams at the minute.

In the second league i'm definately starting MJD as 1 RB but i'm not sure between Jamaal Charles, Jahvid Best and Jerome Harrison as my 2nd RB. Leaving towards Best currently.

TBH in the RLFans league my team picks itself. 3 of my bench are suspended so I have no room for manouevre. All my headaches are in the other leagues I'm in where my teams are infinitely better!


I'll sign up to the pick em leagues and all that jazz after tea.
