Organissimo Football Pool 2014

[vajerzy]

There is an NFL football pool for Organissimo members- 2014 will be our 7th season. It's hosted by CBS Sports and I'm the Admin for it.

It's free to play- and there's no prizes or money involved- just to have some fun with your fellow jazz enthusiasts who happen to be football fans.

You will need a CBS Sports ID- that's free as well.

Read the below information- that will get you started.

Let me know if you have any questions.

The Organissimo NFL pick contest has a venerable history. It is only right to list the previous winners:

2005 - Conn

2006 - Edward

2007 - Noj

2008 - Conn

2009 - vajerzy

2010 - Aggie87

2011 - Noj

2012 - Aggie 87 and vajerzy (wimpy tie)

2013 - Edward

Good luck to everyone this year. Each year we seem to pick up more contestants making the end year champion worthy indeed. Back in 2005, I didn't have the competition I do now. Edward showed his mettle by proving he can win against a star-studded field.

[Aggie87]

Did you just call vajerzy and me wimps??

New option this year: You now have up to 5 minutes before kickoff on the day of any games to make your pick. No more 1 hour prior to kickoff.

And if you miss the deadline and get locked out- let me know your pick and I'll get it in for you.

SS1- I like your confidence!

[Soulstation1]

I've got a friend that would like to play

He is a Seattle fan but I guess he could take a zero for Thursdays game

I'll post his picks here tomorrow if he can play

Thanks

I copy/pasted the standings from another post. Forgot who wrote that. It's on page 1 of the 2013 NFL pool.

LOL that can't be good.

[Soulstation1]

Went 2-9 including 5 misses in a row

Sealed his fate

[Matthew]

Of course, the moment I don't pick the Cowboys, they win. Romo hates me!

Heads up

Game tonight

[vajerzy]

I pick ATL- I had family obligations this evening.

[connoisseur series500]

I picked Atlanta, who were the favorites as well. can you credit me? thanks

[Soulstation1]

I'm 0-3 on Cleveland Browns games this season

Damn...........

[Jazzmoose]

Hey-fix your pick! There's being fair, and then there's going overboard and punishing yourself needlessly.

[connoisseur series500]

I'm going with the Redskins. Will not have access to the CBS site until Saturday. Will finish my picks then.

[Soulstation1]

These games are crazy

No way Minn / TB / Balt should be able to win a game

Faiders are the worst team in NFL

Looks like Aggie is back in the mix. Has anyone ever had a perfect week?

[Aggie87]

I'm still trying to overcome my horrible Week 2, but at least I regained a pulse if nothing else! Some good competition going on this season!
