| Week 16: Terry earns himself a Genius Pick (tm) (Baltimore) for the 2nd week in a row, which is highly unusual! Congrats, Terry! It was a good week for upset pickers, so Tom picks up 5 bonus points on his 9 correct picks, and that's enough to put him into a tie for 4th place, 1 point out of 1st. Emma has an excellent week that pushes her 3 steps up the ladder into a tie for 1st with Dusty and Flo. Fully half of our players are within 4 points of 1st place, so this coming week should be exciting! |

Scoring: Each correct pick earns you a point. In addition to that, each correct underdog pick earns you a bonus point. Underdogs are indicated by the presence of a number next to the team name on the pick sheet, representing the number of points that they are expected to lose by (point spread).
Deadlines: It is in your interest to make your picks accurately and get them in on time. Late submissions may be allowed at the discretion of the poolmaster; changes in picks, after the submission deadline, are not allowed. |

The winner at the end of the regular season gets their name engraved on the plaque of the trophy. The previous year's winner is responsible for getting the plaque updated, and the trophy mailed to the new winner in a timely fashion. Mark and Rosa have set the bar very high for turnaround time here.
Note: only family members are eligible for the family trophy. Other invited players are eligible for the "Family and Friends" trophy.
While we do run a pool for the postseason, there is no prize other than the honor of winning. |
