They say the University of Phoenix is a really good school. I'm not sure exactly, but it's not a college to sneeze at.

I disagree... it seems to be one of those "degree factories" to me, but that's because it's this massive network of for-profit campuses that sprung up in the last 10 years.

Though I think it's smart of Fitzgerald to have enrolled in a school. He's gotta have a backup plan in case his football career suddenly ends.

I think it's a smart idea for football players to have something to fall back if an injury forces them to retire or they're retired and need something to do during the days they would've been practicing/playing.

univ of phoenix is a for-profit college. like itt tech, devry, and all those other colleges. the majority of universities are non-profit research universities.

univ of phoenix is like the Apple of colleges, the overcharge for things that are offered cheaper and better elsewhere

ITT Tech had an ungodly tuition of $40,000/year for their 4-year information systems security program last I had checked, which was in June of 2009. No way I could afford that. o_o; I ended up choosing a public technical college barely even half a mile away that had been established for 35 years longer, and had tuition that amounted to barely even 1/8th that of ITT Tech's per year.

Anyways, what say we start a pick-em competition where we pick the winners of each game in a given week and have the winner based on the total number of correct picks over the course of the season?

Sounds like fun to me. How will it work though...will people be able to jump in @ random weeks and post their predictions or must you have started @ week 1 to be in the competition?
 
It's basically the owners being hard-headed and stubborn. They want to cut the amount of money in percentage the players get.

If there is a lockout, the owners will cause it, not the players. (To Canada, the AFL and the UFL they'll go. When they'll come back, no one sure as heck knows. That is if they do indeed lockout. I sure hope they don't.)

You can jump in any week, otherwise it'd be no fun, since some people might not have the time to one week or the next.I think we should have it listed by total number right AND percentage of guesses correct.

I think a lockout's a given in 2011.

OK so should I just make a list of everyone who enters their prediction, count up how many games each person got correct each week, and every week just continue adding the wins to their total wins?
