Let's see if we get more people than last year on this competition.

For those of you who are wondering what this is: Pick the winners of every NFL game in the regular season. At the end of each Week of the season, I'll look at the results, tally the winners and losers, and if I'm not lazy I'll do what I've been doing and show you how many picked each game correctly and incorrectly. Then I'll update the standings and... yeah. At the end of Week 17, the one with the best record wins, unless we throw the playoffs into that mix.

Anyways, sign up on this thread, and I'll put your name below. Let's do this.

---

PAST CHAMPIONS:
2010: Stevenjackson39
2011: BrewersFuzz

---

Competitors:
-Stevenjackson39 (*insert self-serving and smug comment here*)
-Paul McCartney15 (Because there were apparently 14 Paul McCartneys before him)
-Philliesfan134 (Looks like /somebody's/ gonna be picking the Eagles quite a bit this year)
-SkittleMonster (Taste the rainbow, b*****s)
-BrewersFuzz (Fun fact: He finished last in the first season of NFL Picks before winning last season)
-PowerPro Jr (The Junior makes me wonder if Chief is his father... it's like a bad soap opera! [Which is actually redundant] :lol:)
-Dishnetkid (Warning: Do NOT taunt him about his picks; he's a staff member now. AND his Lions are legit)
-Detroittigers15 (It's Paul McCartney15's 15 and Dishnetkid's Detroit fanhood combined!)
-Zumikaku (The overwhelming favorite this year because he'll probably do the same thing as Brewers and fall ass-backwards from last to first)
-Powerprosfan31 (Totally original name for a forum about Power Pros... but you share my b'day, iirc, so you're cool.)
-ZeroGibson13 (But without the pretentious douchebaggery of the REAL (video game character) Zero Gibson!)
-Redsox4444 (Fun fact: He let us all down by coming in 2nd and not beating Brewers last year)
-AgentP (He's from Texas, so some of the same rules with DNK about not messing with him apply to AgentP... buuuuut Giants beat Rangers in the WS a couple years ago. Had to throw that out there. :P )
-Maccrash21 (Prone to making a pick or two just out of total hipsterness.)
-AnthonyP (Does AgentP imitate AnthonyP, or does AnthonyP imitate AgentP? [Too lazy to check join dates])
-MrLiamcar (Fun fact: the MrLiam car is actually a Buick LaCrosse)
-LightningMan117 ("I've always been either middle of the road or really bad at this. Hopefully I'll know what I'm doing this year." PREDICTION: 2nd. :P )
-RobDiesel61 (No relation to Vin Diesel)

I'm in for the first time, although I do something similar to this on a different site. Hopefully I can get my picks in consistently this year. :)

I may as well blindly throw picks out there and see if I can avoid last this year.

*bows* I thank you for the compliment. I try~

And Zumi, I think you'll appreciate my comment about you. Don't let us down.

Skittles, I dunno. I couldn't think of anything else. I'm going to change up the comments as things progress though, that's for sure.
