EZSportsPick Football - is great for water cooler talk with work buddies, Family fun, and competition with your friends.

The setup - Once you've setup your account you also setup your League Name, your Team Name, and Color choice. Next, you invite others to join your league. They also select their Team Name and color.

The Play: Before each game starts (game and start time can be seen on the calendar), click on the "MyTeam" tab at the top of the page. From there you will be able to:

• Place your game winners for the upcoming challenge
• Review your team standing and how you stack up to your other League members
• Get in some smack-talk with other League members (ex "You goin down Inbreds")

How the points work: Football points are earned every time your team gains points. If you chose Redskins over the Vikings for Thursday nights game, and the final score was Redskins 24 - Vikings 21, you win 24 points. Thus you are ahead of other team members who chose Vikings to win (they received 21 points). See, it's easy. Oh, by the way, if you picked the correct winner - you also receive an additional 5 points. Now you have 29 points to your buddies 21 points.

Don't get too cocky - there are approximately 16 games each week starting on Thursday's and ending on Monday Nights. So there are several chances for others to catch up to you if you choose poorly.
