RULES

In the event of a shortened NFL football season or a season that abruptly ends or is cancelled, the pool will be considered to be in the books if 12 weeks of the NFL schedule have been completed. If the season ends prior to this period, all monies  will be returned to players and players who have won weekly prizes will return any monies won.

The pool includes the regular season, the playoffs, and the Super Bowl. All post-season wins are added to your overall win total.
There are no weekly prizes once the playoffs start.

Two e-mails are sent out every week:

(1) Odds Posted email
(2) Reminder e-mail

Picks are due half an hour before game time of the first scheduled game for that week.
Summary Pages automatically appear immediately after the deadline time and can easily be printed (landscape).

If you forget or you are late in submitting you picks for any given week, you will get 1 less win than the lowest total of wins for that week.
 
    

Survivor Pool Prize


Pick one team to win each week. Easy, right?

Get it right and advance to the next week. Get it wrong and you're out.

The winner of the Survivor Pool will be the last entry remaining after all others have been eliminated.

Each week, you will select one NFL team to be your pick for that week (straight pick). Teams can only be selected once.
If your pick WINS their game during that week you survive and advance to the next week. Games ending in ties eliminates you for this prize.
If you forget your pick, this results in being eliminated for this prize.

Prize = $20 for each week of survival + Free entry the following year. (12 weeks of survival would result in a $240 prize)

This means they must win or lose by a predetermined margin of points.
