You can sign up for both pools at Yahoo.com/pickem. Just click on the “join a group” option and use the information listed below.
The first pool is a straight up “Pick ‘Em” contest where you simply pick the winners of the weekly games.

Powell’s POV: Okay, so you didn’t sign up in time for the season opener. You probably would have picked the Patriots to win on Thursday night, so you would have been 0-1 anyway (along with most of us). Both pools run through the NFL Playoffs. The grand prize is a one-year membership (or one-year membership extension for existing members). We will have at least a second-place prize and likely a third place prize depending on the number of entrants. You are welcome to play in both leagues, but we will not pay the same winner twice. In other words, if you win both leagues, you will not score a two-year membership. Rather, you will win a one-year prize and then be passed over for the next non-winner (in the non-spread league). There will be tiebreakers used so that only one winner is crowned in each pool and I don’t end up giving out free memberships or extensions to 200 people. Good luck!
Glad to see this is back. I was a little worried.
I just signed up for the first time. I was just wondering can I just pick the TNF for now? I dont have to pick all the rest of the games now, do I?
Sorry, I was out last night. If the settings are correct, you should be able to just set the Thursday game and then come back to select the others before kickoff on Sunday. Good luck!
I just signed up for the first time. Do I have to pick all the games right now or can I just pick the TNF game for now?
Man, I’m an idiot. I didnt pick the tiebreakers. I picked the MNF tiebreaker but not the other one, so my picks are incomplete.
