    Less than 6-hours to join the Bowl Mania Challenge.

    Kind of like 'Last Call' at the bar ...

        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

                  crap.

                  I understand that people could change their minds later, and muck around with the results...

                  but, freakin baloney. They could at least require you to have all your picks in by the end of the first week.

                  crap crap crap. 😵

                    I never got to put in but my first three picks? dammit. We were going to win, too. I think. @@

                    Southern Mississippi for two points.

                    whatever. I can't even start another team.

                    this is stupid. "Pout".

                              BTW, have you checked out the standings in the basketball league lately? Nice team.

                              It's a long Bowl series, I'm saving all my big confidence points for a final run at the top. Same for the NBA League, I'm resting my guys and am only 11 points out of first.

                                  Congrats to Beans - he is the champion, my friends. I tried to stop him, but to no avail. We were toast. GGG

                                  And, Congrats to everybody else, it was FUN again, as always...that makes us all winners !

                                  (but Rich pummeled us this year, so we didn't have any moral victory there, either... LOL)

                                        I'll make an Oficial Atenears Guarantee (OAG) that you, Zombo & Mark all finish behind me. I have a strategy this year and just sitting back allowing it to take it's course. I knew I wouldn't be out in front early on this season, but planned on taking the lumps to get the last laugh.
