Hey everyone. Have always used a Fannation Pick Em website for the "pick 'em" challenge since it does all the calculations for you, and it doesn't take up anyone's time. Nor does it allow people to complain because the totals weren't calculated up fast enough for their impatience.

Here is the site: http://www.fannation.com/peter_king_challenge/group/18441

The Group name is: Broncos Forum

and the password is: Orton

I hope everyone joins in. It just takes a couple moments to make your picks. :beer:s

Oh.. not by any official capacity at all. I was just starting it to see if anyone was interested in friendly competition.

Just did mine. When is it going to reset? It's still showing last year's games/picks.

I just sent Tned a pm asking if this would be the one for BF, or if Ravage is doing this one on his own - guess Ravage answered that, but will let Tned weight in also.

We will have an official BroncosForums pickem (complete with prizes) just like we have had in the past. I'll post a thread a little later today with the details, which will also be where people will post their picks for the BF pickem.

I won one of those prises last year, a gift certificate from Amazon.com.

:D Maybe we can get Tned & Ravage in a bidding contest to see who is willing to buy the most expensive prises :D A new car would work for me :D

In all seriousness, I plan to be part of both just for the fun of it.

Yesterday, my son found some Girl Scout cookies that are a couple of years old. I might have a box or two left to ante up with.

Yea, but you posted "Bronco Forum" earlier with no S ;) I found both leagues. Not sure if I'm in it or not though. Computer kinda wacked out on me.

I signed up... or reactivated... still messed up.

You could set up a group quick on yahoo.... I've done picks there before... only annoying thing is that rather than sort by home and away, it shows the favorite on the left and the underdog on the right.

I tried this last year and half way through the year it lost my league. I'm not sure I want to get to week 12 and have the system fall apart again.

I just used the report bug link at the bottom of the page. I still cannot make picks. You think SI would have this corrected already. Maybe everybody should try the report bug link.

Wish I could, Rav, and I do wish you the best of luck. Just have a time problem
here - involved in too much as it is. I enjoyed wrestling with you on the board
the last couple days, but now I'm going to have make myself a little more
scarce even around here for the next few weeks.

Just wanted you to know I'm not ignoring you. ;)

appreciate the words, top.

But it appears the stupid site isn't even working. Too bad, was always a quick way to make picks and keep track of how you are doing throughout the year, without having to do any work. :beer:

Maybe next time.

On this link, it is "report a bug". As I did not sign up, I could not do it, but one of you could. It also states to check the "help page" first.
