NFL 2017 Pick'em League!

RE: NFL 2017 Pick'em League!
I won't be too sad that I'll go out as the AF Fantasy champion for all of time.

It's just a lot of fun that will be missed out on. It's hard for me to believe that we literally only have 6 people that want to play.

HEY AF, WE HAD 13 PEOPLE LAST YEAR, this is not party or political this is mere trash talk!

You got a team brag brag brag! Leave your work at the door, leave your political party at the door. 

This is for fun, this is for the theist to say HA HA, and the ABBA haters to say HA HA......

CL, NEO, Godschild...... This is a religion/political party neutral club. 

We promise you will not be burned at the stake or barbecue your kittens if you beat us. The worst you will get is a NEENER NEENER OR A "FUCK YOU"....

My mom died Catholic and was  life time voting mostly Republican, but when it came to Ohio State or the Skins, we were always on the same page.

IT IS ABOUT LOVE OF THE GAME!

Let your hair down for a weekend, not everything is life or death.

If German Christians and American Christians during WW2 can stop murdering each other during a war on Christmas eve, WHICH REALLY HAPPENED, then certainly theists and atheists can separate threads in on this page.

It's sports folks. None of us own the teams so what do anyone of us have to lose besides missing a good "HA HA" aimed at each other?

I hate that my cat gets me up so early in the morning. Pre season games start at 7:30 and that sounds early, but for me it is late considering I get up at 4:30 5 am.  So two weeks in a row I have missed both the Skins pre season games. But, the good thing is I saved my self from torture. We are 0 and 2 so far.

If you have the NFL Network they replay the games all week.

I am not into watching reruns. Live or not at all. Hard for me to get into a game I know is over even if I don't know the score. 

It's ok though because it is just pre season. I would be more upset with myself if I fell asleep in regular season against a division rival and we won. It isn't like the Skins are the team they were in the 80s anyway. 

I plan on going to sports bars for important games and any that I can listen to a radio feed on line. I need to by an alarm clock for late games.

I'm in but I don't have time this year to do fancy stuff like study the form, or better yet, the geansais.

So I've devised a cunning and fool proof plan. For every game I'm going to toss a coin heads for home*, tails away. It'll not fail me.


*Except Green Bay games. Because Bomber Liston!

This thread is NOT about politics or religion, it is merely about bullshit and bragging rights. Let your hair down and don't make everything life or death.

Just think about the prospect of my side bet unrelated to this thread or the rules. I have a separate bet unrelated to this with a REDNECK, and I HATE COUNTRY MUSIC, that if he beats me in over all records at the end of the season. I have to sing on FACEBOOK "Ache Breaky Heart". 

I don't care that you like me personally, but just for sport, wouldn't you like to see me with egg on my face to some degree?

Play, for the fun, not for the politics, not for religion, not for economic views. PLAY, because it is fun watching those around you fall flat on their faces. 

I still hate SteelCurtain in regards to this thread, because between the Skins and Steelers his team not only has more rings, but we play pre season more often than not, and their fans treat us like we are division rivals. 

So in the interest of trash talk. FUCK THE STEELERS (note to self: Did I think that, or type it?)

Then don't make it about that.
