RULES:
Rules are simple, Registration Fees will depend on size of pool. Starting 2022, Registration Fees will be $65.00 per player. Regular season prize targets for best regular season record will be $150.00 ~ $300.00 for first place, $100.00 ~ $200.00 for second place and $75.00 ~ $125.00 for third place. Should there be a case where two or more players tie for second or third place, the prize will be split amongst the winners. The pool has no limits on number of players. The pot prizes are based on a full count of participants in the pool. If the full count is not met, then prizes will be adjusted accordingly.
Starting 2022, the League will be split into 2 Tables. Table size will range from 20 ~ 30 players. Each week, a winner from each table will be awarded a weekly prize for most correct picks.
Each week, the website will be updated with the week’s games. Each player has a given amount of time to make their picks. Late picks cannot be accepted. Once all picks are in, a master spreadsheet with everyone’s picks will be released for all to view.
Each week, the person with the most correct picks will win the weekly prize. The amount of this prize depends on the size of the pool. Should there be a case of a tie between two or more persons (in the same table), the Monday Night Game (or designated game) score will be used as a tie breaker. Each team’s actual score will be subtracted from the score listed by the player. The difference of these two scores will be added together and then divided by two. This provides an average deviation of score. The player with the lowest deviation wins the weekly prize.
Should there be a tie with the first tie-breaker, a second tie-breaker will be used. This tie-breaker is a randomly picked team score each week that each player will guess the score. The person with the score closest to the actual score wins the weekly prize as the final tie-breaker.
Starting 2009, if there remains a tie between two or more persons after the second tie breaker, the pot will be split between each of these persons.
Any football game that results in a final tie will count as a loss in our sports pool.
Game Cancellations or Postponement: Teams and Games that require a cancellation will be removed from the weekly picks and pool players will not be scored for the cancellation. If a player wins a perfect week due to a cancellation, that player will still receive the perfect week benefits.
Game postponements will work based on the rescheduling event. If the game is to be played on a later date in the same week, then the pool will be scored and finalized after the postponed game has been completed. If the postponed game is rescheduled for a later date in the year, then the game will be removed from the current week as a cancellation and added to a future week.
Additional prizes available each season include:
- Every pick Correct for the week OR ever pick Missed for the week, that person will receive an additional $40.
- If two or more consecutive weeks are won by the same person, that person will win an additional $25.
Starting 2018, any player that wins that has not paid their registration fee will not win a prize!
