Anyone out there interested in American football??

Ive been a 49ers fan since 1882...

Yes, same as footie - it's full of overpriced prima donnas, however maybe not as overpriced as the prem... and until recently scores are nowhere near as predictable!
 
Yes, very much so - played it through sixth form / university, then I officiated it for around 6 years, then played three years of flag football (like tag rugby is to rugby). Finally “retired” now!

NFL-wise I’ve been a Ravens fan since around 2005.
 
Packers fan
Wife a Cowboys fan.
Went to Dallas to watch Cowboys v Lions in 2016. Great experience.
 
Love the game but a real tragedy with all these players taking repeated shots to the head resulting in concussions leading on to CTE.
 
Supported Broncos since 2010 and Leah supports 49ers.
We’ve regularly attend Wembley games with mates (been to spurs once and disliked the experience in comparison) got to games in Florida a few times including the Pro Bowl (the Friday at Espn world was class watching them workout) and a UCF Knights college game which was bonkers

Was the Chester Romans statistician for a season which was a fun experience, however some of those journeys on a Sunday weren’t fun so didn’t continue volunteering the following season.

Also been in a £££ dynasty Fantasy football league for 10yrs (all of us total strangers and most have stuck with it since the beginning) started 3-0 this season and I’m now 3-5 😭 drives me bonkers. However, I did finish runner up one season which keeps me hooked.

Yep, huge NFL fan. Been playing with my mates in a Fantasy NFL league for the last 12 years, we go away every year for a long weekend for full offline draft which is without a doubt one of my absolute favourite weekends of the year. Steelers fan, not really for any other reason than I loved Leveon Bell and Antonio Brown and that I went to Pittsburgh for Pinburgh. Been a season ticket holder since the games were held at Spurs, love it
 
Ohh.. didnt realise we had a number of fans on here... Might need to install "Pick em"....

Pick'em is a Sports prediction game. Whether against the spread or straight up, you are tasked with picking the winner of every game in a given week for an entire season. Includes a Survivor pool type for Survival Style Pools vs standard Pick'em Pools, Spread Pools, Draw Pools (perfect for sports like Soccer) and Standard Pick'em Pools.

Been a big supporter of Patriots 20 plus years

Used to go to games over in New England before having my son but now keep up with highlights etc
 
Followed the Buc’s since they were formed in 76. Im still a Buccaneers fan and every time I visit family in Florida I usually get to go to a home game.
 
Here ya go then.. a little bit of fun....(Mainly as i'm not 100% sure what i am doing here).

Managed to get hold of Bob who is currently in the middle of a wood somewhere in the USA, with no running water, no electric and no bathroom... just his phone, and with nature. And by the wonderful marvels of technology, i have installed his "pick'em" add-on.

I have set up week 9 of the NFL here : https://www.pinballinfo.com/community/pickem/

Click on "Week 9"... and then "join pool" top right.
Then again top right, i think it's "manage your picks".

Choose the team you will think will win each match and fill in the tie breaker at the bottom. If you join a pool, however havent put your picks in by either the start of the match, or by the start of the main body of games (Sunday 18:00) then you wont have locked your choices in.

You get 1 point for a correct choice, 0 for incorrect. You can change your options up to kickoff (i think) of either your match (if sooner) or Sunday 18:00 whichever is sooner.

There is an option to automatically select all home or all away picks if you join a pool, however dont choose your winners, however thats faaaarr too complex for the moment!

I havent added week 10 yet. Lets see how this week works, and i'll add later this week in readyness!

Any questions, just ask and we can muddle through this together! My choices are already in (and yes, you can chage them up to "lock in" time!)

Cheers!
