Pepsi Fantasy Racing blocks "Marlboro Kearney"

[Marlboro Kearney]

Those of you who know me here know that I play alot of Fanatsy racing!  I'm real good at it.
2 of the last 3 years I've finished in the top-5 overall at Nascar.com and at TSN.com as well as alot of top-10 overalls at other websites.  Last year I finished 11th overall at Pepsi.com's fantasy site.  Alot of you also know of my bad blood with Jeff Gordon that is not Nascar related.  One who knows really good is Busch Babe, but she has sworn to forever  keep that fued a secret.  So it was to my surprise this week when Patrick, my son was able to log into Pepsi.com's fantasy racing, but I was not. Also My wife was able to log in. It seems to be a block on the Marlboro Kearney name there.  I was able to play there last year under that name and it was fine.  This year it is not.  Not only is that Name blocked but my e-mail is blocked also.  I have never spoke on the message board there, so that rules out that as a reason for the block.  The only reason I can think of for the block is that thay do not like the Marlboro Name.  Or, that Jeff Gordon does not want Alan Kearney have any chance of winning at his Fanatsy game like I did last year. 

Maybe if I had logged in as Bobby Hillian, That would have been blocked too.  You real Nascar fans know what I'm talking about.

Well initially I would say they just blocked your IP address...  but then you went on to say that your wife and son were both ABLE to sign up,... so that blows that theory.
If it was your IP that was blocked,.. you can always call and have them "drop" and reconnect you, and you get a new IP address.  Some things even have were you can 'disconnect' on your home yourself, and the re-connect and you get a new IP address that way.

Since the "NAME" seems to be whats blocked... I'd just play my WIFES entry...    I'm sure like most people she has a first name and a middle name... then just go and have her join AGAIN (different email address) and use the 'other' name.
There's always more than one way to skin a cat...

I think it's the Marlboro name.

I was able to get in with a generic name then changed it after.

They tried to lock the teacher out of the school.

Turns out the teacher was wiser than the principal.
