In case you missed this post last week, just wanted to remind you that with the season starting Sunday, now's a good time to get signed up for the Gridiron Challenge.

Everyone likes to fashion themselves as an expert, so here's your chance. You'll be able to track my picks each week, allowing you to ridicule me when I take my inevitable lumps. Just be gentle, okay?

Anyway, here's the link. Knock yourself out. It's free and registration is pretty painless. Plus there are some prizes at stake. Now, when you drop by the blog on game days, guess we'll have to do a little scoreboard watching, too.
