I don't like that one nearly as much.  I doubt I'd play.  I'd be more interested in an NCAA version of that but most folks here are more in to the NFL.

Dang, it was there?  I'm SUCH a loser as last round of this proved

Thanks though, take a prize for yorself.  Tell Nolo I said it was OK

I'm in but based on past results, clearly don't have a clue.

I'm pretty sure Bud Light will win this year.

I did my part and renamed the thread from 2009 to 2011

In. This beats the suicide pool - we can demonstrate our lack of a clue over a longer period of time.

I doubt I'll find the motivation to try to pick EVERY game EVERY week.  It might be fun to watch others try though

I joined...should be fun.

Last chance to get in for the full season - games start Thursday.  Get your picks in.

I got no problem picking any game of which I have no clue. Hey , that's the essence of gambling . I'll pick them all to have the same chances of all of us not sticking with  just the safe picks.

I already missed the NO game. It snuck up on me. I'm already at a loss here.

This new platform on Huddler will make our results very pubic.  Where is Charles?  What is Garry doing?

Lets see some people get in here.  One game down, hundreds to go.

First week should be interesting...who knows who's actually any good.

As the winner of the last season (2 years ago... ) I can't let this one pass by, I'm in.  Just took the NY Football Giants over Carolina in week 1, we'll see what happens.  Thanks for starting this again guys!!!

EDIT... wait, is this the same as before where we pick one winner per week and can't pick the same team twice, or do we have to pick winners for every game every week????

Every game, every week.  This is NOT the suicide pool.

How did I miss this? 

Join now, you've only missed 1 game at this point.

Well, so far, nothing spectacular for me.

Jpowhound pulled ahead in spite of missing the first game.  I picked up the Steelers for a win, but lost on Browns (go figure) and SF 49ers.  What is 8? about 50%.  I should just throw a dart.

8 of 16 does not 36% make but I certainly sucked. I took some chances and got a couple, yay Seahawks ,and lost or forgot to pick on the supposedly more certain picks. .This is why I never gamble on football or much at all. It's a crap shoot to  count on fragile and spoiled athletes to make a living  or make a buck .

Second week coming up . Good luck all.

I'm getting slaughtered in my picks at the half between the East and West coast games. I could do as well or better if I let my dog pick them. I would but that wouldn't be fair to the rest of you so I'll do my best and continue make my own, horrible picks.

I'm gonna count on people missing making their picks to help my climb out of the basement.  Thanks Jay.

Damn, just realized I forgot to do this this week... looks like I can only get two games in, oh well.  It's a long season!
