Default O/T - 4th Annual Net54 Football Playoff Pool

With the season ending this evening, it's time for our annual Net54 playoff pool. Tim C. organized it the first two years, and I took over last year. It would be nice if somebody else did it this time, and I'm looking for a volunteer, but if nobody steps forward I guess I can do it again. The rules are pretty simple:

1) All picks must be in one hour before the kickoff of that weekend's first game.
2) Each wild card game is worth 1 point
3) Each conference semi-final is worth 2 points
4) Each conference final is worth 3 points
5) The Superbowl is worth 5 points

Whoever gets the most points will win a beautiful never-been-worn Net54 T-shirt, compliments of Leon. Thanks Leon for providing the prize!

Once the last game is played tonight (Dallas-Washington) you can start posting your picks. Everybody is welcome to play. And hopefully we'll find a volunteer to keep a spreadsheet and post the standings each week. If nobody speaks up by say Wednesday night, I'll do it again this year.

Looks like we have a volunteer to run the pool this year. Thanks Frank! I'll list my picks this morning after I've had a little time to digest the pairings. Good luck to all!

Thanks for the trophy donation, Phil.

To win it, I guess someone will have to pick GB 4 times.

Ya'll know my (lack of) interest level in current pro sports but I will almost always help board members have fun on the board. That being said I took the liberty of moving this from the water-cooler section to the front page. Good luck everyone....

Last year I missed the opening round and had to play catch-up the rest of the way! (--and I didn't, by the way)

Let's start this year w/ some points!

Going w/:

Cincy to top Houston &
Green Bay at home
Indy to spoil Ray Lewis last game and
RGIII (Wash) to send Seattle on a long plane ride home.

Default Entries closed for Wild Card games

58 entrants for the wild card round.

I will accept additional entries for next week's round of games, but anyone who is not currently entered will likely be 4 points behind if they are not already in the game.

Default 24 hour warning give or take

Just a bump to remind you.

There are still 4 people within 3 points of the leader who have not checked in.
