Survival
College Pro Pick'em
Pro Pick'em
I think we should make a BYB league with people from our community.
I've made league for Polish people from one forum , who are gamblers and prefer football than baseball
So - let's talk
I'm not going to play in Fantasy Football. I will not have enough time @ the end of the season
League of Fantasy Football is in your intentions, I'll take care of Survival Pro Pick'em
P.S. In 24 hours I'll try to make a leagues

I'd like to do the two pickem events
It’s easier for me as a non-hardcore football fan.

Dude
Everything I know about football I learn from listening to my old roommate. So if I finish higher than I do in the BYB fantasy baseball league, I consider that a win.

Both College Pick'em and Pro Pick'em
As opposed to a straight fantasy league. I’d be fine with postseason

I would ask for inclusion your BYB name in the name of team [my team is Grzesio_Tigers for example]
I've never tried a fantasy game before...
probably never will. But than again I never thought I’d be on Twitter either.

might I add...
that I have no idea what any of these things are? Like what is Pick ’em and what is Survival?

Pick 'em
is simply just picking a winner each week against a “spread” of points. For example, let’s say the Lions are playing the Bears. Chicago might be “-4” (and Detroit would then be +4). If you were to pick Chicago, they would need to win by 5 points or more for you to get credit for picking that win. If they won by less than 4 points, you would not earn the win even though Chicago actually won the game.
The point value is assigned by bookkeepers based on how many people bet on a given team to win. The favored team will have to “give up” points, making it more likely for a person to pick an upset.
A tip: for college football, you will pick the home team (usually listed in CAPS) 9 times out of 10. If you see very large spreads (upwards of 35-40 points or more), it’s usually a good idea to “take the points” and pick the underdog.
So I just pick the winners each week?
sounds easy enough. I’ll sign up, but don’t be surprised if I forget about it lol.

You give an example Lions @ Bears [BTW I HATE Bears]
You pick Lions , if Lions win you still are in play. If Lions tie [!!!] or loss you’re out.
Since this week to the end of game you cannot pick Lions.
BTW – 2 people so far in the league. I think we need a little more people to play in Fantasy
I'm joining
But tomorrow… I have a minor league game at 2:15 and then I’ve got a couple posts to write up. But I’ll be there.

I see only this ‘’You are not allowed to view this page because you are not in this league. (Error #152)’’
But if you can , just sign in to BYB league.
