The Oscars are on tonight and you know what that means? Baseball season is almost here! The only websites where you can host an Oscar pool are babytown frolics so let's just do it here. Copy/paste the categories and add your choice to win. I know it's work, but so would be signing up for some crap site. As usual the winner gets a selection of bootleg nominated DVDs from yours truly (who won last year? I don't remember giving anyone the prize. If it was you speak up and I'll give you this year's movies). This is really late notice so if the show has started by the time you notice this go ahead and pick the remaining categories. You could still win...
