Pick the points (Week 3)
« on: January 17, 2010, 08:27:27 PM »
Pick the total score of each game and if you come within 7 points of the actual combined score without going over, you win the points you picked for that game. For example, if you pick the total points of both teams combined for a game to be 45 and the actual score is 49, you win the 45 points. If you had picked 41 or 50, you would not pick up any points. The closer you come without going over is the object of the game.

You pick the combined score of each playoff game of the week. Your points total will be carried over each week and into the Superbowl. The top score at the end of the tournament is the winner.

There will be a bonus for hitting the exact total in the Championship and Superbowl weeks of double the points.

The spread is up as a reference point only. It has nothing to do with point awards. You can change your points by editing your post, but have your final picks in prior to the first game.

Good Luck!

The Coach sees the glass as half full. The Media sees the glass as half empty. The Fans can't understand why we have a glass that is twice as big as it needs to be.

I hate to include the word NASTY, but that is part of being a winning football team.

You can have your picks in or you can change them prior to the first game.
