Thanks MJ for allowing me to post this here and for all, he has nothing to do with this. Most of you will automatically get an invite from me for entering this last year, or the NFL Survivor Pool, or the NCAA Bracket Challenge.

If you should be interested, I still have my temporary email address set up at MSN.COM

I am not going to send this out yet until the lines get settle in somewhat and yes, I realize they just came out.

Rules....

1. Please have the ability to open an excel spreadsheet, everything will be on that including the invite and overall master spreadsheet containing everyone's selections.

2. The last 25 bowl games will be listed on an invite. Your job is to pick a winner against the spread and then rank it from 1-25 in terms of your confidence, with 25 being your most confident. If you have the correct selection you will get the point value you entered and so on. If a game ties with a spread, you will get half you ranking value.

3. $20 entry. We had 100 entries in last year and paid out the top five spots and whoever came in last place got their $ back (something to be said for this). Taoist, Nole in Vol Land, and I believe blgstocks placed in the $ last year.

4. I do not take Paypal, everything comes to me via the mail or in person. The first games for this contest will begin on 12/27, therefore I will need your selections back via mail/email and entry fee by 12:00 PM 12/26. I will populate the spreadsheet and return to all via email, therefore you will know where you stand at all times. We had one guy (who works for microsoft) take this spreadsheet and format as such to where all you had to do was enter in the score and it automatically calculated who won and rank each us. Pretty neat.

5. If you aren't in by the deadline, your entry is VOIDED. No exceptions because I allowed one in late for the NFL Survivor Pool and they never paid me. Never again.

This is the BEST contest I run and it truly makes the bowl games/holidays a little more fun. If interested, please email me and I will be back in touch later this week onces the lines are settle in from what they opened at. The invite is finished and ready to go. Let's get it on. Down with Taoist and Nole.

:nono:

I think that I can speak for Nole when I say that we are highly offended!!! :scared (j/k)




Hey, jr, did I ever introduce you to my brothers? Pete and Repeat!!! :mj07: :mj07:



I'll be keeping an eye open for the e-mail. As the very fortunate (and lucky) defending champion, I will definitely be giving everyone a chance to challenge me for the crown. It should be like taking candy from a baby. LOL :142smilie

Will the spreadsheet for everyone's picks be available for non-entrants too?

Contest is up and out to all. Taoist-Nole, side bet?

parlayinn, I am not going to send everyone picks out to someone who didn't enter. I will however make it known the percentages for each game, meaning a consensus. I figure we should get at least 150 in.

You don't want none of this jr11. If you insist, I will go $50 side bet. Please consider your decision. We're talking bragging rights.

I own you in fantasy football and I guess I'll continue to own you after this contest.

"You want the Nole?'

"You can't handle the Nole!"

Booze it is!


If I played you every week, the playoffs would be a breeze!

Alas, I must lose to others.

8th seed baby!

Again, and as a reminder, I will confirm receipt off picks and entry $ to all by email.

Also, I have on contestant who really don't know from the West Coast who works for Microsoft. He is going to take all the data I enter in for the master spreadsheet and redo. It will allow us to just enter in the final score of the game and it will grade and rank everyone. You all will have this before the first game. This will be about as easy to follow again as one can imagine. Those computer guys are great.

Send me a new email at the msn.com address

There were a few emails that were bounced back from the beginning and I figured things might have happened like what you stated. We will get it out today as soon as send me something initially so I have your new contact information.
