Pool Rules

The results for this pool are cumulative, so a final winner will be selected based on total overall points. However, your picks are weighted based on how confident you are in your picks. Place a weight of 1 on your least confident pick, a 2 on the next and so on for the whole pick sheet. A tie breaker is used in the event of a tie, this is your best guess of the latest Monday Night Football game final combined score.

To enter, fill in the entry form by selecting the outcome of each game with your confidence weight. You will also be asked to guess the total points scored in the Monday Night Football* game, which is used as a tie breaker.

*Should the Monday Night Football game be scheduled for a different night, the results will not be published until the game is played.

The winner for each week will be the player with the most points, points are gained by your confidence weight with a correct pick. In the event of a tie, the player who guessed closest to the actual point total of the tie breaker game will win. Should two or more players still be tied, we will show more than one winner for that week.

Note: for the tie breaker, it does not matter if your point total is over or under the actual game total. It is the difference between the two numbers that counts.

Making and Changing Entries

When filling in an entry form, please pick a winner and a confidence weight for each game and a tie breaker total. Be sure to pay close attention to the MAIN page for pick start and end dates, due to the envent of early games, games scheduled on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday.

Games are automatically locked out on the entry form according to their scheduled end date and time.

Note: times displayed on the schedule are Eastern.

You may change your pick for any game up and your tie breaker until the time that game is locked. Entries must be completed on time. Once a week is locked, you may not change your picks for that week. If you did not make a pick for a particular game, you will not get points for that game.
