Title: College Pick'em
Post by: KYTURKEY on June 24, 2012, 06:48:55 PM
Well folks, it's that time of year again.  Time to sign up for the annual Osage Roost College Pick'em contest.  Unless someone knows something different, I am assuming wiltznucs, ( Chad Wiltz), is no longer on the forum.  At least as far as I can see, his name is no longer on here.  If it is cool with everybody, I will take over setting everything up.  All the rules will be the same as previous years.  Everybody who enters, must enter a prize.  The only change this year will be, I will setup a password to get into the contest.. The reason being, we had several people get in it that were not members here.  I will post an official sign up thread ith the password once I have it set up, if there are no objections to me taking over for Chad.

 Hopefully you can set it up as a separate page so we turkey hunters don't have to get all the posts associated with football . Remember this is a turkey hunting site . I like football but don't like to see it on here !

I am willing to do the fantasy football as well. Figured I would do one at a time. Bob, if we could get it put as a child board would be fine if someone could do it for us.

I've always said we need a sports page board for stuff like this.. *up*... A place to talk smack about our favorite teams or players news. A fun place to hold the Pick'em and Fantasy Games and any other (non turkey related) sport topics people want to talk about. Maybe we can get Porter on this Idea so we don't disturb Ole Bob  *cry* with our silly games on a turkey hunting forum  *peep*. I think it would be a great Idea to just PM Bob with our results and let him know how were doing each week  *bannana*. That way we don't bother the other turkey hunters with our fun.  *aah* Love ya' like a brother Bob!  *cheers*

I will probably set up the college pickem this weekend. As far as the fantasy football goes, I think no more than 12 people in it. If you get any more than that the picks start getting thin and not everybody gets good players. Let me know what you guys think.

As far as fantasy goes...... The 10 player team PPR league is the easiest to do and understand. I wouldn't want to leave anybody out, but your right Patrick to many more teams and the well runs dry quick on players . I guess we should see how many people we have that want to play first 10 are in....... Bob if you hurry... Get your name in and I'll try to save you a spot my friend *peep* ROTFLMBO  Thanks Patrick for your help this could be a lot of fun.

I know there are more of you guys that have played in the past.  I have one member wanting to play, but is having trouble getting signed up.  I'm working on that.  By the way, Porter is going to be working on getting us a sports page set up.

Well, it looks like there is only gonna be 4 of us this year.  B-Ready has dropped out unfortunately.  Gonna be a light crew this year.  Don't forget to be getting your  prize together.  Maybe we can pick up a few more before the season starts.

You should just have to click on the link I provided and put in the password, and it should work. You will have to setup an ESPN account if you don't have one.

They may have me bolcked somehow, here at work. They block all kinds of stuff on us. I don't get on line much at home but I will try at home. Anything to do with sports they block. I can get on this site but anything to do with BOWHUNTING on this site or anyother site, they block, along with any sport such as football, baseball,and so on. Can't figure them out. If I stay on any site more than 5 min. they will block it. Anyway I will try at home.

Well guys, it looks like only 3 of us are gonna sign up.  Don't know if it's gonna be worth doing this year.  I will leave it up to you two, unless you all can get some others to join.  I have pm'd the guys that signed up the first time and none of them have signed up.
