    For those who have never played, it's simple, easy, and frustrating as hell. Some of those games you could care less about will now keep you glued to the tv. Quick run down.

    -yahoo randomly selects ~15-20 games each week
    -we will be using the spread that yahoo automatically provides
    -dead line for picks is 5 minutes before each game
    -EVERY week counts, no mulligans, if you forget to pick one week that's your fault
    -one point is assigned for each win
    -whoever has the most points at the end of the season wins; no weekly winners
    -payouts to be determined upon final amount of participants (hopefully pays everyone in top 3)

    *must have a minimum of 5 trades with 100% feedback
    *losers will send minimum of 2 bombers or equivalent of 44 oz of 90+ rated beer not available in targets distro; locals as extras appreciated but not mandatory
    *if you fail to send, I will call you out as a bad trader and do all I can to let everyone know you're a scum bag
    *trash talking encouraged :slight_smile:
    *please use your BA NAME as your team name so I can keep track of everyone
    *be sure to fill out the weekly tie breakers, your final finishing place may depend on it! (ie if you finish the season or week with the same total points as someone else, it will come down to the tie breaker)
    *please sign up on yahoo as soon as I give you the password so I know exactly how many people we have


    DEADLINE FOR SIGNUPS IS Aug 30th.

    PM all of your contact info (name, addy, phone number and email) if interested and I will give you the group and password info. After a worthless POS was too cheap to send a box last year I will most likely send a confirmation text to your phone, if you don't reply you won't join.

    Cheers!

    Wow! I didn't recognize you with that new avatar! Very metrosexual !

    I will of course be more than happy to lay a world class ass whooping on you this college football season. Nothing will make me happier than sipping some nice Texas brews courtesy of @cfh64 upon completion of this little shindig!

    You're such a dick! It's expected unexpected responses like this that always put me on the attack, even when you APPEAR to be cordial. Fuck you John.

    BTW, everyone still needs the group ID but the password IS...

    Fuckjohnyb

    No shit, I was thinking of him when I saw the players from last year. His presence is missed. I'll hunt him down if we don't hear from him soon.

    Texas A&M Aggies are big on traditions, so I will continue the tradition of once again kicking Brad's ass in this contest. In.

    Small group. I'm surprised there's not more participation. 51% might win.

    Yeah, only 9-10 people so far with one more week. I hooe to see more people sign up. The ante is quite small for a seasons worth of college football.

    Intriguingly missing are @johnyb @bignuke61 and @allies_dad I'll be sure to send each a box of Vagisil if they don't sign up in the next few days.

    I thought the time limit was up on Brad having to keep his "lost bet" avatar.... maybe he likes it...
