NFL Blind Draw

[smellysell]

I'm thinking about putting together an NFL blind draw, but first I need to see if anybody is interested.

Basically, you send 2 sticks ($8-10 value) to me. Sticks would need to be to me before the day of the first game (Sept. 6th). Since we will need 32 spots, you can enter as many times as you want, within reason, just send 2 sticks for each spot. I'd be willing to take 4 or 5 spots if need be to fill it up.

After all the spots are full, I will make a list, put the name of each team in a hat, and going down the list, pick a team for each spot. If your team wins the Super Bowl, you get the pot.

Please post below if you are interested, and how many spots you would want.

Thanks,
Justin

I thought opening day for the NFL was Spet. 9th?

I would be interested for a spot. Also, is it "$10ish" for each stick or total for the two?

$10 each

Opening day is the 9th, but the Saints-Colts game is the Thursday before.

First game of the season on a Thursday!?! What is this frigg'n world coming to anyway? :sign:

 

[Fatken]

Sounds like fun, I would take a couple of slots.

I am out of town and cannot ship until next week.

I could do this, LMK. I will order and ship from a vendor stateside to make the time line.

It's not that we really need all the sticks collected by the first game since it's a blind draw. I just don't want to be hounding people to get them in during the week of the conference championship. I honestly believe that wouldn't be an issue here, but when I've done this before at work, this has been a problem. What do you guys think?

 

[MX]

I would get the sticks as soon as possible, and before you draw the names.

I have done things like this before, and then been bitten in the arse when I trusted the Honor system.

If someone here backed out, I am sure the rest of us could/would cover, and that persons time here would no longer be plesent.

IMHO

[bluestone]

Count me in for one.

 

[Southpaw]

I will take one also :thumbs:

I hear ya. Maybe if I waited until after week 4 to draw, that would give people a little more time. I definitely won't draw until I have everybody's sticks though.

 

[MX]

Week 4 sounds good, should be the last full week before the byes start.

Thanks for setting this up, it should work out to a fun time for all.

[humboldtflyer]

Count me in for a spot...

 

[smellysell]

Keep em coming guys! Don't be afraid to take more than one spot either, if you're shipping 2, might as well send 4 and double your chances.

 

[Newfie]

I'll play, but only if I can take the Lions!!!! :whistling: :laugh:

Seriously Justin, I won't play, but if you want a hand picking the "Draw", LMK.

 

[wanlail]

I'd be in for this. :thumbs:

 

[PuroEsq]

I am currently in for one spot . . . however, I will take another if needed to complete the field. Let me know.

 

[Jonesy]

Put me down for a couple of spots Justin.

 

[yanksfan]

sounds like a hoot. I'll take two spots. Thanks

Hey Justin,

Don't forget to add yourself to the list, or you might miss out on your own pool....
