NFL Pick 'em contests announcement...

[kkktookmybabyaway 0]

To refresh:

 

Submit your picks as to which teams will win each week to Bravesfan's contest. He is doing a highest-score-at-the-end-of-the-season-wins-all contest.

 

I'm doing mine a little differently.

 

With the picks you submit to Braves' contest, those are also the same picks submitted to my contest. Your picks of that week go up against another person's picks. The person you go up against for that week is the representative of the opponent of the football team you have selected.

 

Example, in Week 1 I (steelers) will be facing off against Dr. Tom (ravens). Whoever correctly picked the most games between the two of us wins and goes up with 1 win and 0 losses for the season.

 

Not only will you submit your picks each week, but, as a tiebreaker, predict how many points your team will score for that week. If, for example, Dr. Tom and I each correctly guessed 7 games in Week 1, whoever was closer to their team's point total prediction will win.

 

Example:

 

I predicted the Steelers will score 10 points, Tom predicts the Ravens will score 14. The Ravens win the game 17-3. Since Tom was 4 points off and I was 7, Tom wins.

 

And like a regular NFL season, if you are either a division winner or wild-card team you move on to the playoffs. If there is a tie between two or more teams for a wild card spot, I have several tiebreakers in place...

Tom wins.

Get used to that.

 

Bitches.

I wasn't going to say I won -- don't want to get banned before the season even starts...

So we still are doing Pre-Season? Can someone find me the last preseason games?

 

Can't find who's playing who.

 

Edit: Nevermind. < is stupid.

If nobody takes the Bears -- or if ISportsFan lets me know he's still interested, the Bears will use my weekly picks until there's an owner...

[Dr. Tom 0]

Indianapolis Colts (Hardyz1's Ghost)

Quoi?

Just because he's banned doesn't mean he can't participate. He's e-mailing me his picks every week...

[Dr. Tom 0]

Just because he's banned doesn't mean he can't participate.

Just my opinion, but I think it absolutely should. Isn't this contest ostensibly for posters of TSM? I know I'd be bent if I lost to someone who couldn't even post in the thread.

I see your point, but I just think it would be funny if he would wind up winning the whole thing -- kinda like when Ashcroft lost to the dead guy in the 2000 Election.

 

Oh, Swift Terror is now with the Bears...
