those sites will do nothing but make u broke. I've tried it twice and lost; it ain't even worth it. I do spraed picks for fun on yahoo college pickem, but i ain't putting any money on it. If you're going to do it, than do something like a 10 team parlay with $ 1. If u hit all 10 games u win i think between 800 and 1000 bucks, but if one game is wrong, u lose your $ 1.

Did You Know?

 

During Harrison's ten-year NFL career, the 6'8" 275 pound defensive stalwart collected 39.5 sacks.  He played seven seasons for the Philadelphia Eagles and then moved on to the Los Angeles Rams before the 1985 NFL season.  

 

The following is an excerpt from an interview done with Harrison by Commodore History Corner-Bill Traughber (Nov 11th, 2009):

"We did make it to the playoffs and lost to Atlanta," said Harrison. "My best memories from that first season was sacking Roger Staubach and chasing Fran Tarkington. Both those guys are in the Hall of Fame." 

In 1979, the Eagles were 11-5 for second place in the Eastern Division behind Dallas. They beat Chicago in the Wild Card game, but lost the next week to Tampa Bay, 24-17. The following year The Eagles were Eastern Division Champions at 12-4. They defeated the Vikings 31-16 and Dallas in the NFC championship game. 

This would be Philadelphia's first Super Bowl appearance. The game would be played in the New Orleans' Superdome against the Oakland Raiders. 

"We believed in preseason that we had a team that could make it to the Super Bowl," said Harrison. "Most of the team arrived in training camp a week earlier than we were supposed to. We were anxious to get to work. It was the mindset that we had that year. We were blessed in the end that was we able to get into the Super Bowl. 

"We celebrated a couple of days that conference championship. Marion Campbell was our defensive coordinator and Coach Vermeil did a good job keeping us grounded. We wanted to do something special when we got there. Unfortunately it didn't turn out that way."
