Out of the Blue [Sep 09, 2021, 11:57 am ET] – Share – Viewing Comments
Wow, so today is opening day of the NFL season. This definitely puts me a little
behind the curve on getting the ball rolling with this year's installment in our
Pigskin Pick'Em pool. ESPN reformatted the site, and for a moment when I went
over there I thought they were no longer offering the ability to create private
groups. But I worked it out, and when I went to the
Blue's News Group I found that five people had joined already on their own.
Head
over here to sign up (password "bn") if you are interested in competing to
see who can pick the most winners over the course of the season. It costs
nothing to join and you get nothing if you win, except, as we've noted before,
for those priceless bragging rights.

Well, remake/reboot/sequel, I'm down regardless, since it's coming day one to HBO Max! I am certainly interested to see what they want to do with it after 20 years or so, besides making money, I mean.
