I. What is NFL Picks?

	NFL Picks is a picking group that picks all the games during the 
regular season (yes, that includes the postseason - with the probowl
being a tie-breaker if necessary).  The NFL Picks team has been organized
since 1999.  Back then, we only had 7 members who officially
got together and picked all year.  (Before then, there was a small group 
that picked via email with no official standings or anything...)

        If you are interested in joining the team, click on Join 
the Team at:

	http://www.nflpicks.org

	Applications for the next season are accepted from the start of 
the previous season's first game until July 31st of the applied season.  
Once you do apply, the application will be voted upon by the current team 
members.  As soon as a decision is made, you will be notified.  Once approved, 
you will be able to login and practice pick until the season you have 
been approved to join on has arrived.  Please note that you must be a 
forum member before you can apply to the team.

II. Who runs NFL Picks?

	Since we started officially in 1999, NFL Picks is organized and
operated by Bobby Russ.  As of 2006, Bobby selected two assistants to
help run NFL Picks as it continues to grow.  Jim Svitak, our NFL Picks
Fantasy Football Assistant Administrator, maintains the Fantasy Football
League for the NFL Picks and keeps everyone up to date with it.  Nathan
Albright, our NFL Picks Statistics Assistant Administrator, is
responsible for maintaining the statistics and spreadsheets.

III. What is the NFL Picks List?

	The NFL Picks List is a discussion list for the NFL and for the
NFL Picks Team members.  It also included updates from the "NFL Picks
Quick Hits", a feature added in 2004 and removed after the 2007 season. 
We added Forums in 2007.  Also, any major updates on thewebsite are also
sent out to the list.  There is a FAQ for the list at:

	http://www.nflpicks.org/list.php

IV. What is this about Forums?

	In 2007, we added Forums to the website.  Over the years, we
have experimented with forums and have found that a non-integrated
solution would not work.  Please note that you must register to view,
post, or participate in the forums.

V. How do I join the Forums?

	Select the link on the side that says join our forums.

VI. What about the old NFL Picks list?

	Well, We were with Topica for many years while it hosted free groups.
However, as the ads grew and several servers have started to block Topica
as they assume that too many spammers are on there, we decided to move to
Google Groups.  We were on Topica from September 16, 1999 until the end of 
2004.  We officially deleted the old NFL Picks list on Topica in May 
2005.

VII. What about the old NFL Picks Website?

        When we started NFL Picks, we were originally located on a personal
college account website.  Around 2001, we moved the website to secfenia.org
as this was own our personal website featuring the Secfenia RPG and other
personal areas.  As of the 2006 season, we officially moved to our own
domain due to the fact that we were growing so much for the personal domain
that we warranted our own space.  (This will hopefully be our last move!)
