Glad to help, I've not run a pool in a few years now, but glad I can provide the site to help out others.

Thank you Phil for keeping the Football Pool alive and evolving.

My older brother Mike Hall passed away on July 30th following a heart attack in early June. I'm doing my best to keep up with all of his affairs, so if any of you have private messaged him recently, I wanted you all to know that he is gone and is very missed. I am keeping the Brainjar.com site running, I have no idea how to get into the backend of it or the football pool I managed as the Admin here: http://brainjar.com/nfl which we never got the chance to pull the 2020 schedule into. I don't really need to do much with the Brainjar site itself as it is timeless, but perhaps at some point if I can get in, I would like an updated Football Pool asp file if someone would like it made available.

By reading some of these posts and the stories from his workmates from Salt River Project (SRP) in Phoenix, AZ, I truly did not appreciate how brilliant he was.

I am so sorry to hear with your Brother, Mike, and his passing, my condolences go out to you and your family. While I didn't know Mike other than through a few messages online, he was always a very kind person. I hope you are able to keep his site up and going to help you remember him and how special he was. If we can do anything for you with the football pool let us know. I have kind of moved away from running pools and really just maintain the board now, others on here have a much greater knowledge of using it than I do.

We appreciate that, he was always very kind and helpful. I have access to at least keep the domain going through GoDaddy and the hosting through Hostway. I definitely miss the football pool after 20 plus seasons, there is no better site to even just view schedules and standings without having to sift through nonsense, It's clean and simple. I would love to get in on someone's pool at some point to not only play, but to have access to that simple information on the season. Our group dwindled down to five after the last couple of seasons, Thursday Night Football is a killer.
