Week 3: How do you stop a rocket? Mostly, stay out of its way and hope it explodes! Emma is taking off like a rocket, leading by 9 points and leaving the rest of us in her wake. (If rockets even have wakes...), even earning another Genius Pick (tm) this week with Washington, and two more bonus points than anyone else, and 88% correct overall. What more is there to say??
Oh, well Tom's "new methodology" is off to a pretty lousy start, earning a Suineg Pick; Luke takes back 5 spots for a 50% share of 3rd place with Sparky. |

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. |
