Football pool(s)

With football (finally) approaching, it's time for me to invite all of you into a pair of football pools. The more players, the better so if you're on the fence do yourself a favor and play. Even people in Germany can play.

The first pool is the one where you pick the winner of each football game. After you select the winner, you assign confidence points to each game. Simply click here and follow the instructions to sign up. A free Yahoo account is necessary. The group ID # is 5911 and the password is 'favreless'.

The second one is a Survivor pool. Every week you pick one team. If that team wins you survive to the next week. If they lose, you're done. The last person still picking wins the pool. The sign up is similar, click here to sign up. The group ID # is 2289 and the password is 'probst'.

Ok. I joined the survivor pool. I'll probably be out week 1. You'll have to work on me for the other one - it sounds like fun, though. Not as much fun as it would have been if Favre was playing for MN, but still.

They've both fun in different ways. The survivor pool is more dramatic as you don't know if any upset will knock you out. The 'picks' pool is fun throughout the year. It makes each game interesting. And the nicest thing about it is that you never have to pick against your own team or for your own rivals.
