Ok got the pool up and running at pickuphockey.com

Pool Name - Brewnosers Hockey Pool
Password - beer
"Twenty years ago — a time, by the way, that hops such as Simcoe and Citra were already being developed, but weren’t about to find immediate popularity — there wasn’t a brewer on earth who would have gone to the annual Hop Growers of American convention and said, “I’m going to have a beer that we make 4,000 barrels of, one time a year. It flies off the shelf at damn near $20 a six-pack, and you know what it smells like? It smells like your cat ate your weed and then pissed in the Christmas tree.” - Bell’s Brewery Director of Operations John Mallet on the scent of their popular Hopslam.

My wife says if I win this you guys will never forgive me :lol: . I don’t even know what hockey is…or is this American football?

Ranking at # 5 today in the contest. I take it all back LiverDance, it is all luck! You should pm me your email so I can send the $20.

Looks like the 2 guys who don't know much about hockey are rocking the mid section...... :pow:

I had a great method of picking players. If i didn't know any of the names.......I picked which city i'd probably like better. :banana:

Well fuck me, looks like I did alright, even with Stamkos on the sidelines. :banana:

I took Stamkos over Crosby......son of a bitch. If I understand the scoring correctly, I would be leading by ~30 points if I didn't outsmart myself at the Rockbottom and take Stamkos over Sid.

The way she goes........
