NFL Football Pool Game VII

Post by Marianne » Sun Aug 03, 2014 1:06 pm

Is anyone ready for fooball? Here we are with our seventh season of the Football Pool Game here on World of Pageantry. Here's hoping we get all our veteran players back, and maybe a few new players too!!

This year, I'm experiencing a few difficulties in my life (I'll go into detail later), and think I might be better off not having us play for the Pre-Season. If someone would like to take it over for the pre-season, that would be great.

In fact, I would really like to have a person volunteer to back me up and take over (hopefully only temporarily) if needed during the Regular Season. Details are as follows:

Most of you who know me know I lost my Mom last October. Since then, I have been forced to put my home of 28 years on the market so the bank doesn't take it away (Reverse Mortgage Hell). We are close to getting an offer, and I could be right in the throes of moving when the Regular Season starts. Adding to that, I still have no idea where I'll end up, if I'll have Internet connection, or what. So if someone wants to run the Pre-Season to practice on, and be ready to take over if I end up living in my car with no Internet, then that would be great.

Are you doing this for the other two groups like last year? If so, I can sign up there to help keep things easier on you.

Unfortunately I can't help ... I'm slammed with sick animals (our Lab just passed away and the cat isn't doing well and I'm trying to find a home for my oldest's two rabbits while I play foster mom), helping with a class reunion in September, flying to WA end of Oct/first of Nov to help my daughter deliver my grand child, back here for the holidays and packing up my stuff, then back to WA to live there from Jan to Mar to help with the grand kid.

Sorry and (hug).

Thanks for the suggestion. The most time consuming part is entering everyone's picks, and then posting the recaps to my webpage. So it doesn't really matter if I enter your picks here or there. :) It would be great to have some folks here go to TvCH and join and form a team, as the team aspect is always a fun part of the game.

I also will probably lose my Comcast account, and with it my webpage I post the recaps on. So if anyone knows of a good free site I could switch to, that allows me to post Excel spreadsheets, that would be great.

I also just can't spend as much time recruiting players (which includes re-inviting past players), to let them know the game is on. So if anyone would like to PM our regulars here (both here and on FB), that would be very helpful. I usually just remind them the game is on, and provide a link to the current game. Please let me know if you do get hold of folks, so I'll know I won't have to.

Hopefully I will end up with some sort of Internet connection. Otherwise the game will really be hosed this year. Sigh.
