View Full Version : Anyone for some FOOTBALL?
I'll be starting up the UPICK'EM league again. This is nationally sponsored and you can win cheesy prizes from Fathead sports.
I'll be creating a private group so we can trash talk each other on who is better at picking the winners in the NFL each week.
Pretty easy, just log in and pick the winners you "forsee" for the week. I will send cheesy prizes for a few competitions....more on that when we get ready to go.
If you're interested in playing (its FREE) just PM me your email addy and I'll send the official invite!
Prepare to LOSE!

With Farve going to the Viqueens ( love that Kare ) who do you want to beat more. Bears or Viks ?
Don't say both. You'll be lucky to win one. :lmao:
Oh yeah, you're asking for it, boy! Seeing that I am surrounded by Viqueen fans (Scott, Deb(best friend) etc and usually WIN free lunches at the expense of those same fans; I really REALLY want to cream the Viqueens! But beating da bears is always wonderful!

Im ready to see my Panthers in action. Got a solid O line and 2 of the best RB's in the league along with the top play making wide receiver STEVE SMITH no one plays with as much heart as him and Delhome. Lets make it happen Cats. Second hardest schedule in the league and they will still be on top of there division come end of season hopefully on there way to the Super Bowl!!!
Mrs. Sputnik 08-20-2009, 11:17 PM I am NOT getting the losing prize LOL

Good luck with that lol. i am from N.C but recently moved a few years ago. i have never and never will pull for the panthers. i would be amazed even with a few decent players if they even make playoffs this year.
Just to put it out there...the trash talk will probably be us rooting for our favorite team, but to everyone worried about that, you try to pick the winners for all the games each week. Doesn't matter if your team sux or not. And, yeah, the loser will probably get a little trophy called "the toilet bowl", although I never did send it to Cam, last year. He dropped off the game and let the computer pick many weeks.

Join anyway, Tosha. Doesn't matter that your team sux. You can vote for their opponent every week and probably win. :lmao:

No toilet loser prize for me LOL:lmao:
SNSnakes 08-21-2009, 10:47 AM I'm in! I was the point leader last year going into the Superbowl, but my team didn't win, so I didn't get any points for that week...ended up 6th or 7th I think.
It's fun and it's really easy...well, chosing the weekly winners might be hard, but it's easy to click on your choices.
papaK 08-22-2009, 03:11 AM i'm a browns fan... grew up in cleveland. now if only we could score a touchdown. should be possible against the lions tomorrow haha.
come on Shawn, join the football frenzy and join our upickem group...just PM me your email addy and I'll get the sign up invite right out to you.......we already have bears fans, so your browns should be okay .................

Hey, you got Matt Cassel!! Can't be all that bad! KC looked pretty good against Minnesota last night...even sacked that old fart Farve...lol. Alas, TJack came on for MN and looked like a completely different person, throwing TWO TD passes....weird! MN won...but not by much, it's still preseason.
Good luck with that lol. i am from N.C but recently moved a few years ago. i have never and never will pull for the panthers. i would be amazed even with a few decent players if they even make playoffs this year.
They were right there last year went 12-4 and this year returning 21 of 22 starters and have added some good talent from the draft so don't think I'm off by saying they have a shot they were on top last year and shall return. I was born In NC so soon as the Panthers came into the league they became my team. Stuck with them when they went 1-15 and everybody always wishes the best for there team if they didn't they wouldn't be a fan at all. They do have a tough schedule and will be a tough year but they got the talent at the right positions great running game and a good line on both sides of the ball with a play making WR like Steve Smith.
JoshJP7 08-22-2009, 09:21 PM Count me in... If the Saints can get their secondary together this year they have a chance at going deep in the playoffs... Drew "The Surgeon" Brees is one of the best QB's in the league and theyre always good for 35+ points... Only problem is their D gives up 42!!! Go Black and Gold.

my opinion HE IS THE BEST!! He is a rival to my team but have fallowed him for a while and even when he has key players injured in there line up he still preforms and he knows how to fire a team up. There pre game warm up act is the best in football. " Who are we? We are new orleans!!"

Hey Bill who do you folks from Iowa cheer for in the NFL?
Two engineers I worked with always had a bet on for the NCAA football games between the Hawkeyes and the Cyclones. That was always fun to watch.

Oh yeah, Rodgers is looking strong. He's waited a long time for his time to shine. It looks to be a good season!
Wild Bill 08-26-2009, 11:22 PM Oh yeah, Rodgers is looking strong. He's waited a long time for his time to shine. It looks to be a good season!
I think the Bears might surprise the Packers this first game and win by 10.
Buckskin 08-26-2009, 11:33 PM I think the Bears might surprise the Packers this first game and win by 10.
