Pretty pretty please?? I promise this is the last time I'll ask.

Let me know if you're interested and I'll set up the league.

ETA: Well, it doesn't look like you can join yet, but is anyone interested in joining when it does open up?

I'll join - we do a money pick'em pool anyway, so I can just port the ss to yahoo, plus add message board taunts that the SEC fans will have to look up in that dusty old antebellum dictionary in the guest quarters.

Awesome. I'll keep a watch on the site. Surely they'll be opening up registration soon.

Oh, the memories. I'll comment on the Big 10 stadiums since I have never been to those the SEC


I have only been there once, but Michigan Stadium (The Big House) is very loud.
1. It is BIG. The capacity is 107,501, but has had 112,000+ in attendence for a game with Ohio State
2. Fans sit very close to the field
3. It was basically dug into the ground so the sound is consolidated

Beaver Stadium almost did in Ohio State Quarterbacks. Players couldn't hear the signals from the QB

Ohio Stadium (The Horseshoe) vibrates when the OSU band comes through the tunnel and the fans begin yelling. I've taken Texas alumnae to OSU games and they said UT games were never that loud.

I can't wait for the season to begin. USC here I come!

I've been absent a little while but this looks like a good time to comment.

LSU BAMA registered on the Richter Scale. What do you northerners know about that?

Before getting snotty, read the first line of my post.
