Go to Yahoo Sports and find the group:

Survivors R Us

The password is:

govikes

Our ID# is 5765 9337.

Status: online 		I got this e-mail from Yahoo once I reactivated the account. Odd that the Group ID# is different. I'm going to edit the first entry above to show this change.

Group ID# (9337) and the Password (govikes). Remember, it is the Group ID#, not the group name, that other people must use to join your group.

Oops, then I guess I dissed whoever DID win last year. Perhaps that person will speak up and challenge us all to a duel.

I see what you mean. If you follow the tab that says "Groups" it doesn't get you anywhere. See if this link works:

Yep - you can only use a team once, so that plays a big part in the strategy. I like to save some of those "sure thing" teams (if there is such a thing) for later in the season and look for those iffy teams early on that happen to have a favorable match-up.

But don't listen to me - I've never made it much past the halfway point of any season.

I'm playing to win the whole thing. If that causes me to lose in the first week so be it.

I didn't look yet.

That could have been ugly.

A little ugly for 5 people still.
