31st(?) Annual Football Pool Rules

1) CBS Sports or Commissioner's WAG will be used to determine the point spreads.
Weekly pick sheet will be emailed to you, which is just a guideline.
The website point spread is the bible and will be used to determine the winner.

2) Players are responsible for entering their picks on the website: THEweeklyfootballpool.com
This must be done on a PC or a Pad since we don't have a mobile app for phones.
You can access the website on phones but it is limited.
DEADLINE TO ENTER PICKS IS KICKOFF OF THE INDIVIDUAL GAMES.

Or in the event of an emergency email them to: [email protected]

3) Thursday games are optional to play as always. Deadline to enter your pick is KICKOFF.

PICKS WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE AFTER KICKOFF AND THE GAMES ARE LOCKED

4) Select any ten (10) games and pick your winning teams based on the spread.

5) Rank your selections from 1 to 10 with your favorite as your 10 point pick.
Ranking your picks is critical.

6) ALL TIES GO TO THE FAVORITE. Example: THE Saints are a 4.5 point favorite over the
Panthers. When THE Saints win the game by 4.5 points, THE Saints are the winner.

7) If your picks are not entered by the start of the first Sunday game, the Commissioner may
invoke the no player left behind rule and make picks for you, OR give you the average
score so you don't lose ground in the overall points race.

8) HOWEVER, ANY WINNINGS FROM THE COMMISSIONERS PICKS MIGHT NOT BE PAID OUT
BUT INSTEAD BE ADDED TO THE OVERALL WINNERS POT.

9) If two (2) or more players tie for 1st, 2nd, 3rd 4th or 5th, the winnings will be divided equally.

10) Returning veterans you already know the drill so please help your Rookies
