Yes…It’s back for the 32nd consecutive year. The $250 entry fee has been permanently waived, and the champion wins a 30-day stay in NickSkin’s basement (food and bathroom privileges included).
Each week, you must pick the winner of one NFL game. The point spread is not involved. However, you can only pick a team one time. You are allowed ONE incorrect pick. The second incorrect pick eliminates you.
The deadline for picking (and posting your pick) is generally prior to the kickoff of that game (unlike Noon Saturday for the old “Pick The Underdog”). Thus, if you forget to pick a game Sunday, you may be able to pick a team in Monday night’s game.
Picking a heavy favorite helps your chances, although you won’t be able to use that team again. Generally, there is only one player left (the Champion) after about 8-12 weeks. Two years ago, however, the contest ended after five weeks, although only one incorrect pick was allowed.
Picks can be posted in this thread. Note: “FunOfficePools” is not used this year since it’s a bit late with a game tonight. Also…You get TWO wrong picks (not one) before elimination.
