The bracket manager is up and running. If you haven't gotten an email invite, PM me your email again so I can make sure you get in. Fee is 30 dollars. Multiple bracket purchases are ok. Get friends in as well. I'd try to get your money in this week just in case. My name and address is below...

Did anyone not get an e-mail invite that was supposed to? I think we are going to be around 30-40 total entries as of right now...depending on who follows through. Could be a very good pot for us. And I know something about good pot. :wink:

uh oh....Ryan's first drug reference.
let the floodgates open.

fyi:
is everyone still thinking about getting together the 17th for some game watching? we still need to pick a location.
i'm thinking City or Shoeless Joes......

If that is the case, Ryan, could those attending just give you money then?

fyi: Ryan, please send me the link again.

Yea, totally not true but the "Family Guy" in me just had to throw that last sentence out there.

Let me know the location when it geta hammered out. hopefully I can make it.

I would prefer the money sent to me still for two reasons:

1. In case I can't make it

2. But more importantly through my experience of running these things is that it becomes MUCH harder to collect money days after this begins and someone just tanks who didn't paid. Suddenly it harder than hell to get money from them. Basically it becomes an easy out for that person. If they win or continue doing well, here's my money. If not, uhh i'll try to get it. Especially with this being an online community. I've got to have that money before the tourney starts.

Don't forget to mail out your money today. Time is ticking to get it in. Rough estimate shows 40-50 people in.

I haven't gotten an email either. I wonder if Ryan's or CBS' email system is working properly.

You have to create a username for yourself. Then when you use the link that is provided in the email you use that password for the league. You need to create your own username and password. Doug, you should already have one from last years fantasy football that no one cared about...

Forgive me. Its done. Come on we need about 35 guys so we can get this pot up to about 1k.

Hey Ryan, I sent you an email asking if you have on of those "outside" type of mailboxes because I'm going to be right down the street from your crib tomorrow morning (got a job interview around Grace and Western). If so I can drop off the moneys then.
