I'm the owner of Pro Football Critics( http://www.pfcritics.com/ ) and I am starting up a football contest. I hope I'm allowed to post this here, since the forum description mentioned contests. If not, feel free to remove this post.

Here is the contest: http://www.pfcritics.com/pickem

What you do is you place your picks each and every week for NFL games. At the end of the season, whoever has the best record will win $150.00. Last year I didn't have any money for it, but this year I was able to get a sponsor for the contest.

So if you're an NFL fan, take the chance that your picks count for something :D

BTW, there is a slight chance that I could make the prize $200.00 instead of $150.00 if I get extra money during the season.

Any questions, please leave them here. :) BTW, it's completely free to enter this contest, no catches. I've run PFCritics for three+ years, I don't want to tarnish my reputation or anything...

Sweet I'm going to sign up. Couple questions: what type of payment are you going to pay by and also are we going with the spread?

At the moment, my main preferance and goal is to do it through PayPal so that I don't have to worry about something getting lost in the mail. However if the winner really wants to do something via check or something else, I'm open to working it out of course.

And no, it will not be done by the spread. I am just doing it by straight up winners and losers. :)

I for the picksheet it say "Week P2 Picksheet for"

I assume that means week 2 preseason? So was there a week 1 preseason already and do Preseason picks count for the total for the tournament? If so that sucks since everyone here has already missed a week and will be behind.

Don't worry about the preseason. On the first page of the Pickem page here:

I mention that the preseason is only for practice, fun, and to work out kinks in the system. The actual contest itself does not begin until week one of the regular season.

Well, I didn't exactly do legal research regarding ages, but I don't have any problem with a two year old to a 100 year old signing up :)

I went ahead and signed up for the hell of it. I could certainly use some money to help pay for a 360.

I signed up. I need money to pay for a traffic ticket, so might as well take a chance. I came in second in my picks league last season.

I like it, I'm in! Looks like you are even ranked aginst people in other pools, so I can see how bad I am compared to everyone else in the world... The "survivor" mini game is also a nice touch.

Football, you bet! :)
