There's a little crow being fed to Ohio State fans in the form of electronic billboards around Columbus.

What am I missing here? TCU beat Wisconsin, not Ohio State.

The link explains it. The Ohio State president drew the ire of all non-BCS football fans.

Oh, that's right. Heh. Pretty dumb, but pretty funny all the same.

Who usually does the pick 'em contests in the locker room? I wonder if they're doing one for the NFL playoffs. If I don't see something up by late afternoon, I'll try to get something up tonight. Keep on an eye out in the locker room.

oh crap, that's me NoMich! I usually do the playoff pick 'em. I'll get it setup shortly.

Cool. Thanks apoch.

Ah- I was actually starting to do it in the locker room thread itself, figuring at worst we can just do it old school SpoFi and post our picks in the thread and have someone compute and post the standings each week.

But if you have a line on a confidence pool shared website, apoch, please set it up!

I've posted my confidence picks in the locker room thread in any case, so if something gets set up and I don't notice by noon tomorrow... well, I should be grandfathered in is all. :)
