Too much faffing about for me FJ (fantasy football/gridiron whatever). I much prefer this.

Think this link takes you to the espn one http://games.espn.com/nfl-pigskin-pickem/2017/en/

Happy to volunteer setting it up but don't want to step on anyone's toes[/quote]

Np please, if you're interested in running it that's fine. I'm going to be traveling the first 3 weeks of September so that might make things difficult for me. My suggestion is we each kick in 10 quid (invoice everyone by PayPal so all you need are emails addresses) and then split the money in some equitable way.

Would be happy to join in on this. I don't have paypal though so if it is does end up being a money thing, I could put a tenner into someone's bank account etc to pay my way.

Is there anything I need to sign up to now?

ESPN slacking a bit with getting their pick 'em games set up. Once that's updated I'll set up a league where you pick every game every week, straight - no spread. Although it should be easy to set up a sister league where you pick games with the spread. I mean, if you folks on the wrong side of the Atlantic want to get your own franchise you will need to figure out betting vs. the spread. At any rate, before any of that is set up I pulled together a knock-out league in Yahoo: pick one winner every week and you advance. can only use each team once, so options dwindle as we proceed.

So knockout pool is on Yahoo, and I've set up a pick 'em pool on espn. It's straight up winner/loser not spread. You will need to create an entry and make sure to select straight and not spread or confidence.

This message is from yo mama who is challenging you to play Pigskin Pick'em on ESPN.com.

Select the winner of each NFL game throughout the 17 week regular season. Play against the spread, ordering by confidence or straight up. Prizes are awarded for both scoring systems. The game is always free to play!

Get in the action now:

You can also search for the group by name:

Group: KUMB on the GridIRON

You can put together an entire fantasy roster but you can't navigate that site? Even my 81 year old mum handles it with ease. :lol:

I'm in B-I-N

Not sure how i feel about seeing the percentages of who's picked who. Preferred the not knowing as it doesn't influence your decision.

Also preferred the simplicity of Runyourpool but there you go. Hopefully a few more will sign up but there's only two days to go.

Being a Browns fan and West Ham United fan ain’t a lot of fun

Hope the Steelers have a rusty day today
