Well it's that time of year again. Time for the most popular 17 weeks on Oprano. The NFL Pick'em! Last year we gave away over $7k worth of cash and prizes.

We are looking for sponsors to kick in weekly prizes, and prizes for the champions! Of course as usual, the winner will win dinner at Commander's Palace with Serge and I in Vegas during Internext.

Mutt has agreed to be the league commisioner again.... this competition would not be possible without his hard work and dedication.

IF any sponsor is interested in getting some GREAT exposure over 17 weeks, please e-mail me michael at oprano dot com

Here is last years page and sponsors

http://www.opranoplus.com/pickem/


And now I say....





Are you ready for FOOTBALL????

CJ it was fun!!

I think we should spice up this years event with some personal bets between webmasters on Oprano. Silly things, not dealing with money but acts. Then they could be paid off during the PHB III in Vegas!!



I have a few in mind for you and I!!

well the no photos rule is a GUARANTEE, but i don't think i could avoid laughing at the general scene of us both naked in front of a room full of webmasters ...



mike and I are now taking this to icq - the sexual tension is too strong to resist

So I have a question...are we going to change the rules so that the weekly winner can win more than once?

If not can we at least pick who gets the prize? Or even better make it a random pick so that everyone has a chance? Even the people that do not do that well. I like that idea the best.

I'm a little off as to what's hip this year with video game stuff, but if Playstation 2's or Xbox's are still cool, we would like to continue what we did last year an award something like that to the weekly winner again this year.

We love Oprano Pick'em

Perfect Rich!! MaxCash has always support Oprano.... we love you guys!! Xboxs and Playstations are still cool. Maybe you can expand ot DVD player or something for people who are not into games ( that is about same price I would think!)

Tonda, a few good ideas. Weekly winners should not be able to win more then once. But I do like the random give away if that happens. This is the MaxCash weekly prize - so Rich can decide.

We need to brain storm and think of something unique!!

Pick'em is coming together!!

works for me Mike, as long as the value doesn't go above whatever a playstation 2 or Xbox costs over at Amazon.com.
As long as I can order it on Amazon.com it's all good.
That way if the weekly winner was someone who won an Xbox last year...they can use the prize this year, and get games to play on it this year...whatever, as long as folks keep it simple and costs are the same...they can have what they like from Amazon.com.

*Note for some international webmasters who I can't get Amazon.com to ship stuff to....you will simply win a check for the amount that would have been spent on ya at Amazon.com.

**2nd Note - If I can ship Amazon.com stuff to you...getting a check is not an option...you must chose something fun for us to buy you

any additional terms....I leave up to the Pick'em contest runners...ie tie breakers, can you win more than once, etc etc, of course.

Ya know....some of us who don't play video games and like to read and watch movies wouldn't mind a gift certificate at Amazon.com as a prize....

(geeze - sorry that sounded so tacky - "Thank you for the free prize, but we want something different...." I hope it's understood better than I'm saying it.....)

IF I win??!! IF?? Are you saying that just because I've played for 2 years and never won a darned thing, that I MIGHT not win something this year??!!

Thanks for being accommodating - I didn't want to sound like a beggar being a chooser...but it sure came out that way!

Seems like some good ideas for this years Pick'em !

I have a suggestion right of the top let's put up 2 VIP passess to the
Player Hater Ball III !!

Normally the winner gets to have a great dinner so why not add the VIP passes ??

Mike ??
