In theory, this is for those who missed the first one and don’t want to join late. In reality, I was just disappointed that the first one didn’t use confidence points. Anywho, [here’s a link](http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem/register/joinprivategroup) to the sign up page. Scoring doesn’t start until Week 2. Since we’re coming a little late to the party, I imagine this league will be . . . cozy. But that’s fine. It just means you’ll have a 1 in 20 chance of winning rather than a 1 in 40 chance.

Ok, I’m in.

I play in a weekly cash pool that uses confidence points, so it’ll be an easy matter to just copy those picks over here. I can lose at two places at once!

Well, after the debacle that was the first one this may get very popular.

We’ve had our own little debacle, actually. See the league MB for details.

Ok, I removed the teams that accidentally picked games the first week (again, it was the only way to clear the scores). [Here’s a link](http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem/register/joinprivategroup) to help you find your way back a little quicker. Again, League ID is 43714, password is cecil.

We start scoring this week, and all are welcome, naturally.
