1 - Send all picks via the board's Private Message system.
2 - Each week, you must pick one team to win their game (no spread)
3 - Once you pick a team, you can not pick them again for the rest of the season (meaning that if you pick Arizona to beat St Louis in week 1, you can never pick Arizona again)
4 - If your team wins, you go onto the next week.  If your team looses, you are out of the contest.  Ties count as a win.
5 - You must Private Message us your pick before Noon EST on the Saturday before the games.  If we do not have your pick by Noon, you are out of the contest.  If there is a Thursday or Saturday game, your pick must be in before Noon the day before the game & only if you plan on picking from those games.  (Meaning that if you plan on picking the Oakland/New England game for Week 1, you must have your pick in by Noon Sept 7th.  If you are not picking that game, your pick for Week 1 is due by Noon Sept 10)
6 - Last contestant remaining will win the contest.
7 - In the event there is a tie at the end of the contest (after Week 17), we will randomly draw a winner from those that are in the tie.  If there is a tie before Week 17, we will extend the contest until we have one winner or until the end of the season. (meaning if in Week 15 there are 4 people left & all 4 loose, they will go again in Week 16)
8 - Only one entry per registered board member (only Jim, Greenguy & MrMaryLou are officially excluded) & you must have 400 posts before August 17th in order to enter the contest.  Registration ended at Noon EDT on Sept 7 2005.
