Congrats to monteithdawg, who managed to win the week one pool on the tiebreaker.  Yours truly is squarely in the middle of the pack with a mediocre 4-point week.  Which again is a good illustration of why I don’t bet on college football.

Week 2 picks are up, by the way.  All of this week’s games are on Saturday, so you’ve got plenty of time.

A gentle reminder

Just thought I’d mention that the pick ‘em pool for the Fabris Invitational is open.  Two of this week’s games are on Thursday, so you have to make those two picks earlier.

******************************************************************************

UPDATE:  Just so you know, the pick ‘em site sends out two reminders – one on Thursday, if there are any Thursday night games in the pool, and one on Friday.  So if you are the kind of person who needs that, don’t turn off your e-mail option.

Still time to jump in the Pool.

Just a quick reminder that you can still sign up to play in the Fabris Invitational pick ‘em pool.  We’ve got 132 already there, so you’ll have plenty of company.  The pool opens for picks on Saturday.

Go here to join.

Everyone in the pool

I definitely got enough feedback yesterday on a football pick ‘em pool to move forward, so I’ve gone ahead and set that up.

I’ve elected to go with an against-the-spread format.  (I didn’t see a clear consensus for anything other than not having a straight pick ‘em arrangement and ATS is my personal preference, so there.)  You’ll pick ten games each week.  I’ll prioritize the choices like this:  (1) the Georgia game as long as there’s a spread, (2) any SEC-SEC matchups and (3) other games of interest.  The site does give the participants the ability to send me notice of particular games you might want picked, so I’ll try to keep that in mind if I get that kind of feedback.

The link to join is here.  And here’s some pertinent info from the site administrator:

This [link] will take people to the JOIN page and if they are not currently members, they will have to create an account on our site.
A couple of things you may consider letting people know:

1)  We do not SPAM.  Emails are used to send pick reminders and new pool notifications.  Users can turn that off getting emails from us on ”YOUR PROFILE” page

2)  Username is what they’ll use to log in, so they should remember that and the password.  Try not to use spaces since people tend to forget they entered them.

3)  PICKS are due prior to KICKOFF or NOON on Saturday depending on the game.  We lock the entire pool at noon on Saturday for all games, but early games lock when they start.

4)  Players can see everyone’s picks at NOON on Saturday when the entire pool locks down.

5)  There is a “CONTACT US” link at the bottom of the page that will send us emails if anyone has any problems.  Of course, you can always let me know if there are any problems.

I’ve already set the first week’s games up.  Two start on the 30th, which means at least those picks will have to be in by that Thursday.  From what I can tell, the site won’t unlock the picks until the 25th, which should still leave you with plenty of time to make them.   Let me know if you have any questions or issues with the sign up.

By the way, hope you approve of the name.  You know I like naming things after coaches… and we all like a challenge.

*******************************************************************************

UPDATE:  There seems to be an issue with the link all of a sudden.  It was working a few minutes ago, but isn’t now.  Be patient while I get that addressed.  Thanks.
