| Congrats to Ben, Ken and Susan who made a fine showing this past week, with 14 correct picks and 2 bonus points apiece. Curiously, nearly everyone picked 2 upsets correctly this week! Tom earns the one "genius" pick of the week with Washington, but even with that he is forcibly removed from the season leaderboard by up-and-comer Ken. Mark also falls a couple of spots to make room for surging Susan (who also passes Luke, in case anyone didn't notice...) and big Ben. Donna is still hiding in plain sight, right in the middle of the pack, just waiting for the right time to make her move. Don't be fooled, people! |

| 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). |

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. |
