Hey guys, I started a new group on ESPNs pigskin pickem website. It is for the Illstreet gang to join. The group is private so you need the the password "BATMAN" (case sensetive) to join. Use your Screen name and log on. I didn't use the point spread so it is a straight up win/lose pick.

click "join group"
find the group "Illstreet Football"
Use the password "BATMAN"

I guess I didn't explain it. Its a "football pool" similar to the office football pool. But for those of us that don't have an office........

Count me in sir :D

I see you over there, good for you. My brother is the Aceholes!!

No football fans on Illstreet?? Hard to believe

I'm going to sign up tomorrow

im not a football fan..but ill join. where the hell is "join group"?

I had to check from my Wifes computor to see where it takes you if you have o cookies......anyway

You have to click on "sign up for a free account". Go through that process and then you see an option to join a group.

OBTW, you don't have to be "A fan" or into football that much. It is just fun to pick each week and see how you do. Actually, once you place your picks for the week, it seems you have a vested interest in the games and it is seemingly more fun to watch them.

I found this out when the Oilers moved from Houston to Tennesee......then changed to the Titans. I was a man without a team, cause I am a diehard fan. Once I pick a team....that is my team from then on. Grwoing up in Houston and watching the Oilers play in the Astrodome hooked me. When they bailed from Houston it kinda killed NFL fro me. Seemed the only way to get back into it was to pick in an office pool. And even now the Houston Texans are not really the same as the Oilers. So, Officially I still have no team. I wish the NFL had kept the name of the Oilers in Houston just like they did for the Cleveland Browns

Man,

I just tried to sign up via the wifes copmutor....it is impossible!!!

Send me your email address and I'll send you an envite via ESPN......seems to be the only way.

Hey you nut scratchers, Sign up and play!! There are only about 6 in our group.

Joined up. Picked the same teams as in my office pool.

Also... I have Pittsburgh(-7) covering against Tennessee(+7) for $25 (1 unit) and the under (-40) for 1 unit.

And, for those of you who don't know, Tucker Max's message board is a great gambling board. Some of the guys who bet there made me a lot of money last season. Just a bit of info for those who really like to gamble.

The Betting makes me crazy. I have to just "play" else it's not fun.

The group is up to nine. 20 is really fun
