each week you pick one NFL team to win their game. If that teams wins you move on to the following week
once a team is used, you cannot pick that team again for the rest of the season
if the team you pick loses, you are out!
for the first 3 weeks, you are allowed to rebuy back into the pool
if you buy back in, you lose the ability to pick the team that you lost with as well as the ability to pick the team that beat your losing pick. For example: if you pick the jets to beat the Raiders and lose, you cannot pick the Jets or the Raiders for the remainder of the season.
no point spreads will be used
if a game ends in a tie, it will be considered a loss
you can pick any game on the schedule (Thursday, Saturday, Sunday, or Monday)
all picks must be submitted by 12PM on Sunday. If you wish to pick a Thursday or Saturday game, the pick must be in by 1PM on the respective game day.
If everyone loses, then the pool is over. The point is to win every week, so I dont feel you should be rewarded with a second chance just because theres only 5 people left in week 10. So this is what we will do. Everyone left in the pool will get their buy in (and rebuys) back. The pool will then be split 50/50. 50% will roll over till next season. The other 50% will be split evenly with the remaining players.
