After months of (what I was sure was futile) searching, ticket prices for the ND-PSU game finally started to drop this week. I imagine that there are lots of people that are afraid of trying to scalp tickets on game day. Anyway, the above arrived this morning (picture from eBay, which is why the rows are blanked out). Needless to say, I am more than a little excited about this game.
In the interim, I managed to get myself roped into a second fantasy football league. Two drafts irrefutably proves the point that I have no idea what I am doing in regards to FF. I did manage to get both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady...and then realized they have the same bye week. Good times.
I also take part in a very interesting NFL pool each week, the rules of which are: pick 5 games against the spread, with point values of 25, 15, 10, 5 and 1 assigned to each game (I may have told some of you this before). Obviously 56 points is perfect. Ties with the spread are broken by picking the MNF winner. Ties between players are broken by closest to total number of points in the MNF football game.
So....how about we get involved in a little NFL pick 'em? I have set up an e-mail address, questionablecommentary@yahoo.com, to take the picks. Each week, I will need your five picks (and the point values assigned to each), the MNF football winner (if not already one of your picks) and the total points in the MNF game. Interested? Winner gets a nice prize from questionablecommentary at the end of the season (seriously). I have listed the spreads for the first week below. If you want to pick tomorrow night's game, make sure to get the picks to me by kickoff.
Also, pick the first MNF game this week as your tiebreaker.

Congratulations! Who's the lucky co-attendee?

My dad is going with me.
I'm game for a little competition. It's a good way to fill in the gap between April & February when there's no March Madness to follow.
Check your e-mail for my picks.
