NFL Playoff Pool $$$

[therber2]

Here's how it works. You assign each team a number from 1 to 12. At the end of every playoff/Super Bowl game you will get the point that you assign to that winning team as a credit. Say you give the Cowboys 10 points and the Eagles 1 point. If the Cowboys play and beat the Eagles then you would have 10 points. As a team is eliminated from the playoff so is the number that you assign to it.

10 points to play (Send to me)

Winnings work as follows:
1st place = 70% of the pot
2nd place = 20% of the pot
3rd place = 10% of the pot

The teams are listed below in no specific order. Assign a number from 1 to 12 and reply back. **Points due by this Friday. You may edit your post as long as you do so before the very end of the day on Friday.**

New York Jets
Cincinnati Bengals
Baltimore Ravens
New England Patriots
San Diego Chargers
Indianapolis Colts
Philadelphia Eagles
Dallas Cowboys
Green Bay Packers
Arizona Cardinals
Minnesota Vikings
New Orleans Saints

If you have any questions PM me. ***I will need a minimum of 10 people for the pool*** If we don't get 10 people we can take a vote to keep the cards final (say we only get 8 people or something) or just by default I will return all points.

How do I send you the points?

Thanks,

You are good Cham. Ty.

[therber2]

Hey Hitman,

I need the points from you. FYI

[therber2]

***Guys, since we didn't get the 10 minimum. I am going to extend the deadline for this to 5 minutes before the Cinci/NYJ kickoff TODAY...unless there are any objections?***

Pm me if there are any issues please. One other question, should I return the point to you guys if we don't have 10 people or do you want to keep this going? If no one replies I am going to keep it running. Everything is final once the first game kicks off today.

Hey, one of you guys mind updating the score? I'll try later on if you can't.

[slacker00]

1. Slate: 61 pts
2. Chickenwang: 50 pts
3. Chambokl: 53 pts
4. bsimp3021: 45 pts
5. therber2: 51 pts
6. Hitman: 45 pts (did not pay [just for fun])
7. cgars: 43 pt
8. slacker00 51 pt

This is what I came up with, but maybe some mistakes. Double check my math. I'm really tired.

[slacker00]

Looking at this some more, here are the possibilities:

Slate wins it all if the Jets win this weekend.
otherwise Chickenwang wins it all if Vikings win the Super Bowl.
otherwise therber2 wins it all.

The rest of us seem to be eliminated. Again, double check for yourself, I might have made a mistake.

[cappersedge]
