Cool, just saw this, but I will pick next week.

[Carlos del Vaca]

Still time to get in on this, as your low point total week for the season will be dropped from the overall total.  So if you missed week 1, no great loss.  So go make picks now!  NOW!

Go to http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem  (you'll need a Yahoo ID, obviously)
Click "Create or Join Group", then "Join Private Group"
Group ID:  52476
Password:  smuckles
Follow all the other instructions, should be pretty straightforward.

Once you're in, click your pick set name under "My Private Groups" on the front page.  Then "My Picks," and find week 2 and click "Edit."

Pick who you think will win each game.  No point spreads, just straight-up winner.
Then use the "confidence" drop-downs for each game.  The game you are most absolutely sure your pick will win should get a 16.  The game you think is the biggest toss-up should get a 1.  Rank all the games accordingly.

The confidence rank you give each game is the number of points you'll get if your pick is correct.

Also, fill in the tiebreaker stuff at the bottom before you submit.

I won week 1.  Yay, me.

Aww man, I've been doing the confidence rankings backwards.  Now I gotta go flip 'em all.

Ok, now I know what's up:  this week is mine, kidz.

[robot_god]

How ya like me now, gold teet crack da smile?!




Man, next week is tough.

[robot_god]

Mannn, it was only my 2 point pick, but that Lions game, Kitna carelessly threw away my oppurtunity for a perfect week.  Lousy favorite teams.  Anyway, this week still hangs in the balance.



I wish calling the points would count for something more than just tiebreaking.

Going for the third week win in a row.

STEP IT UP SUCKAS

Yeah, but how 'bout them Padres?  Heh.

[Carlos del Vaca]

Too many obvious games this week.  I missed my 1- and 2-pointers, and have only 3 on tonight's game.  I figured that would win the week going away, but noooooooooo.

One could have made a shitload of money this week taking the Titans and the points.

This should probably be in its own thread, but is anyone interested in a fantasy hockey league?  Pedro and I would be totally in if someone else did the setting-up thing.  I've not done fantasty sports before but Pedro has.  Does it matter that the season's begun as long as we all start at the same time? 

[Carlos del Vaca]

Wow, last week everyone was close to perfect.  This week, we all sucked it.

[robot_god]

Oh man, I put 13 points on the Steelers because I thought Charlie Batch would play.

[robot_god]

And they lose.

Game over, season over, Rothelisburger's career over.

[Carlos del Vaca]

Game over, season over, Rothelisburger's career over.

I agree with the first two, not so much the last one.  He's still young and he's got a Super Bowl win on his resume.  He gets a mulligan.

WTF is up with the Eagles?!?  Ye GODS.

[robot_god]

Well, I can only hope.

WTF is up with the Eagles?!?  Ye GODS.

McScab is too intimidated by the Giants, baby, woooo!

The Chargers and LaDainian sure were fun to watch tonight. 

I'm generally and AFC East kinda guy, but I've always enjoyed the rivalries in the AFC West.  Broncos, Chiefs, Chargers, Raiderzz.  Fun Stuff.

Also, the KC Chiefs are the subject of one of the funniest TV commercials EVAR!  Great Googly Moogly!
