Scoring:

» 5 extra points (10 total) per game for picking the exact score
The winner of the contest is determined by which ever entrant has the most points at the end of all games this week. If the contest should end in a tie based on points alone, the tie breaker will be determined by which entrant has the lowest point differential. (Point differential is calculated by taking the sum of actual scores as compared to the predicted scores over the course of the week).
Rules:
1. You have until kick off of each game to make your picks, once a game starts you will not be able to change your pick.
2. To play you must be a registered member of the Bigbruin.com forum.
3. One winner will be chosen based on the final score of the contest.
4. At the end of the contest, the winner must provide their shipping address, and the prize will ship out right away.
5. This contest is open to North American participants only, and shipping is included.
6. Rules subject to change.
Tips:
1. Your picks aren't set in stone until game time. You can edit your predictions for any particular game as often as you want right up to kick off.
2. Once a game starts the software does not let you see your predictions. Your best bet for remembering your picks is to take a screenshot of the predictions page or to write them down.
3. Scores will be updated when available and are listed at the bottom of the game's page.
4. Monday Night Football is included, but the upcoming week's games will generally be listed beforehand. While the game and predicition pages may show an overlap during this period, the scores and standings will not get mixed up.
Please post any comments or questions in this thread!

Perhaps your friends that don't know football, just so they don't lower your chance of winning, but still get us to the 100 player mark.  |

I posted on the 260servers.net, but nobody responded. My own sites are new and get very few visitors, but I'll put it on the front page of my blog anyway. Having some html handy to cut and paste for us would make things easy, maybe some ad code to insert.

)That Buddy Hub looks interesting.
A little suprised not seeing EC playing this week.
Was he crushed by last weeks loss?
Or maybe he's got BFD (Black Friday Disease)?
edit: refreshed the other page a NOW he's in! (tricky devil  ) |

Happy Thanksgiving everyone...
You're trying to get 100 players in a week?
I've been trying to get my friends in, but they keep saying they don't know anything about football. I just answer them with, "neither do I...I just sit down with the sports page to place my guesses."
There is really no reason not to try...
Whoa....that is a nice case! Maybe I'll push my friends harder NEXT week...hehe

Doesn't look like 100 will happen... Oh well, big savings on the shipping bill.
As for people not knowing football... Honestly, who cares?!? Look how pindy admits winning last week...
| Quote: | | I did alright each week, but this week was just done using newspapers over/under. Would have been perfect if I didn't change pick on San Diego game. |
My question is... The over / under is always like a total score ending in a half, with the winning team favored by a half. How the hell is that calculated? Like for this weekend from Yahoo:
| Quote: | | at Arizona 10 1/2 10 1/2 37 1/2 San Francisco |
So I pick Arizona to win by about 10 with a total of 37 points? 24-13? OK, the difference is 11. Is that how it works?  |
