pools

[Miles]

anybody else involved with these? i just found out yesterday that a friend of mine is running a 30+ person winner-take-all $10 football pool every week. so i drunkenly put my $10 and page full of picks in to him last night... normally i'd only care about watching the bucs game, but i'll be taking in every game i can find on tv this week. football is just way better with money involved.

I used to do this when I worked at a dealership, I wasnt much a football fan back then but it was fun when you won.

I would do it but I dont know anyone who does it.

when in doubt, start your own.

I honestly have no one would be interested in it except people at work but if we get caught gambling at work it's an automatic write up. :(

you can't find them outside of work? just meet at tgi fridays or some place equally stupid for a "business lunch"

Too much work, I'll just continue to play Fantasy football. Good luck in your pools though.
