    We will use the same site as last year:

    http://nflpicks.bman.com/

    Name: "Baptist Board NFL Picks Extravaganza"

    Password: "WayneFontes" (no space)

    To join the pool, go here:

    http://nflpicks.bman.com/joinpool.cfm

    Click on the pull down menu and all the pools are in alpha order, and then enter the password.

    Here are some tips on using the site:

    When you register (if this is your first year playing), it asks if you want to receive e-mail notifications if you forget to pick for a week. I strongly suggest you say yes and receive these reminders. It also asks if you want to hide your picks until kickoff. I strongly suggest you say yes and hide your picks until kickoff. Lastly, it also asks if you want to enable the Auto Pick feature if you forget to pick. I strongly suggest you use the Auto Pick feature. There is a pull down menu with 5 choices for your auto picks – All Favorites, All Underdogs, All Home, All Away, or All Random. Per the site rules, you can only use Auto Picks 3 times during the season, and you cannot use it for Week 1. You can change these options if you go to Main Menu and "Edit Your Info".

    If you played last year, you should enter your user name and password that you registered with last year.

    Our pool site also has a message board that we can post on.

    Let me know if you have any questions.

    Andy

    Bumping again for this year. We are using the same site that we've used the last couple years. For new members, see first post above. For existing members, your login and password is still the same.

    Well, I just checked and I'm in the lead by 3 games and rank #11 out of 7877 overall. It might be hard to keep these rankings.

    Pretty good, Alcott!

    I have another pool on the same site for my friends and family, and the guy who won it all last year for the whole site is in my pool ("WhippingBoy" - old college friend of mine).

    Bumping again for the 2011 season. Using same site. We are picking both against the spread and straight-up. The site is easy to use - see FAQs for help.
