Can You Pick-Em? Phanatic Pick-Em League Forming Now
By Brian Miller
Over on Yahoo they have a “pick-em” league. You know, similar to the office pool that goes on all year long. Well, this year we are going to hold our own. Can you rise to the top? The concept is simple, you pick each game, each week, and the person who wins…well, wins.
NOTE: We also have one 12 team FF league open as well. 11 spots available. If interested you can use the links below to either PayPal or to our donations page. The entry fee in that league is 25.00 dollars with a 160.00, 50.00, and 30.00 dollar payout to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd.
This league is going to be set up for charity, benefiting our drive for Miami Dolphins Cycling Challenge in the name of Tom Eddie. Unlike our fantasy leagues however there is no set price. Not everyone can afford to give the same amount and it’s not fair to leave anyone out of this. That being said, everyone can afford a minimum of two dollars.
I’ll get to where to send the money in a moment, first, let’s go over what I will be giving away.
