Join the PK.com NFL Pick 'Em Pool 2005
The NFL season kicks off in just over a week, and I've set up another weekly pick 'em pool, which was a lot of fun last year. Every Tuesday I'll update my home page touting the weekly winners and overall leaders.

I'll be using CBS SportsLine as the engine, so you'll need to register a free user name with them, if you don't already have one.

The rules are simple:

• Make picks against the spread each week.
• If you miss a week, you'll be awarded the lowest score posted by those who made picks. That way you don't get crippled with a 0 if you forget to make selections before leaving on a weekend trip.

The top three finishers at the end of the year will receive some cheap prizes. You'll have your choice of items from my sports memorabilia collection, CDs, books, framed prints of my photos, etc. Most importantly, you'll receive all the glory and adulation that comes from winning such a prestigious pool.

To enter the pool:

• Simply go to http://pkpool2005.football.sportsline.com/e

• Enter "arod_for_mvp" as the password for entry.

Good luck!

Hey Paul, when can we make picks? the spread is at 0 for all games

The spreads won't be set till next week, after the final preseason games are played.

You should receive an e-mail from CBS SportsLine when it's time to get going.

First game is Thursday, Sept. 8.

It does look like CBS SportsLine is allowing you to make picks with no spread, which makes no sense. I hope people wait till the spreads are out, because that's gonna affect your decisions.

I'll keep an eye on this next week.

This lifelong Sox fan and devoted reader to your site had to use every last bit of strength in me to type "arod_for_mvp". Your game, your rules, huh?

Look, now I typed it for a second time! I'm already rattled. Thank God this isn't for money. Ha....

Jesus, 67 people already. Maybe we'll hit 100 by the start of the season.
