Yes, I figure we'll give this another go. Five college and five pro games for a total of 10 games per week, and for the weeks one of the leagues isn't in session (like the first week of college football season when the NFL is still in their preseason thing) there will still be a total of 10 games. Just like last year, a spotlight game will be worth two points.
)
Working on a tiebreaker; one might be percentage of games picked correctly.

Season will run from Week 1 of college football all the way to the Super Bowl.

Prize will be the PS4/XBox1/Switch game of your choice (regular edition).

If there are any questions, concerns, or suggestions, now would be the time to mention it.

Lastly, now I just need to gauge the interest. Bring in friends you feel could contribute here too, competition is always nice. :)
"But it is not enough for me to stand before you tonight and condemn riots. It would be morally irresponsible for me to do that without, at the same time, condemning the contingent, intolerable conditions that exist in our society. These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of the negro poor has worsened over the last twelve or fifteen years. It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice and humanity." - Martin Luther King, Jr

I'm very excited to have my higher ranking last year be proven as a fluke.

Go for it. I have a couple reasons for it: A, while I'm sure many of you don't mind there's only a few of us competing, I don't see anything wrong with a few more either.
And 2, I'm sure some of you wouldn't mind a few more contributors around here either. I know social media in a way kind of killed the whole message board thing, but we're still around. Some new voices couldn't hurt, and who knows? Maybe they'll find a reason to stick around and contribute too.

But at the end of the day, if this is the group we roll with then I'm fine too. We do have a pretty good group here, so kudos to you guys.

Yeah, admittedly, I felt like BSB was "irrelevant" once we had Facebook and I could just add all of you guys on friends on there. Took me a while to find my way back here, although I kinda like the quiet here. We post when we have something to say, and we don't talk to just to talk, so that's kind of nice.

That being said, I'm the youngest guy here I'm pretty sure (except maybe Thai, but he's been gone a moment now too), so, we need some new blood otherwise I'm going to just be replying to myself in ten years :P

I don't mind others at all, nor do I mind if it stays just us, I'm good either way

please do...

I am glad you guys stick around. That's why I still put the small amount to keep it going. I would like to see it grow a little. I will keep it going as long as you guys are still coming.

I had a couple of guys come over from the MAAN site and attempt to register but haven't heard back so they can get in.  One of them is a returning guy to the site Swany. The others name at that site is Deisel, no idea what he put down on his registration here.

Username: Kevin Nash (I kid, I kid)

(That was Diesel's real name, back in WWF, right? Or am I thinking of someone else?)

It was, although he omitted the "Big Sexy" that went with Kevin Nash

Sorry those approvals went to my spam folder they are approved.

Norm or I should be able to approve anyone that signs up. We did that to stop spam last year.  Norm just check the admin section and you should see pending requests next time.
