              How do you think Zombo has ever won one of these contests? He creates an account and makes the picks to the best of his knowledge, then creates a second account and makes all the opposite picks as his original. He will tell you that the second dominating award winning account was his dogs account, and it might as well have been ... if only ESPN showed Zippy's pcks prior to the deadline we could all pick against him for great success!

              I believe you are allowed up to three accounts, we really don't have a rule against multiple accounts. With that said, do you still want it removed?

                I thought Zombo had four teams. He was unsure about a few games, so he hedged his bets... 🙄

                But, Calfox and Dad are in, and we're in it to win it, and we only enter ONE team... @@

                  Well if you are allowing multiple accounts then I am not going to complain 🙂

                              Yep...I just want to be consistent in my complaint. I could still win this thing and I would complain about confidence points. I don't want to think this hard about my picks.

                                    Real Bowl Mania players don't just pick winners, they ascribe CONFIDENCE POINTS to them.

                                    We won all three games, changed the points to suit us. One of Zombo's seventeen teams may not be in the top ten,

                                    but things change dramatically down the line as points and wins add up.

                                    We're saving some other games for the top points. It's a little early to have won the virtual trophy, though.

                                    We can wait and earn it. @@

                                      So, we picked three games, and I had to go - we had a party to go to.

                                      so, I came back here today, and even though I have all the checkboxes, the stupid? thing won't

                                      let me pick a team for the remaining bowl games. What the heyek am I doing wrong? Or, is the site having problems? dang it.... @@

                                        Sorry, my friend but as best I can tell you are toast. It seems that once the games start everything is locked. That makes sense because if you can change things after they start the leaders can reassign points to help them and losers as well.

                                        Just assume you got all the rest correct and total your points in a message here

                                        I am sure management will honor your immense point total

                                        Offense Wins.......Franchise QB's are the key.............Defense keeps you in the game.........Go Buckeyes
