Week 4 Football Pool (in Contests)


PeterGriffin September 24 2008 10:14 AM EDT

Rules are simple, pick your winning team with the spread and total points scored for tie breaker game.

The spread is what the favored teams are picked to win by. For instance below KC is the favored team to win by -4 points if you pick them then they have to win the game by more than 4 points for you to get the win, but if they win by only 3 points then who ever picked the Raiders will get the win because KC didn't cover the spread.

Just an FYI I have had requests for random picks and that is fine, if I get those requests I have my kids or my wife do the picks because none of them know anything about football... and if you do that then I send you what the picks were so you know what you got...

Also I have had guys pick all home, or all away, or all favorites or all underdogs, those are all fine if you don't feel like going thru the teams... enjoy guys and I am getting allot more entries so I am gonna tripple what is in that pool right now.. there is 180k in there and now there is 540k... if I get more entries I may jump it up some more..

thanks guys

PeterGriffin September 29 2008 9:35 AM EDT

oh and if any of you think your number is wrong let me know and I will check it again.

thanks and good luck to those all up in the top few.

th00p September 29 2008 10:18 AM EDT

I have a chance! WOW! Let's go Baltimore!

PeterGriffin September 29 2008 3:03 PM EDT

Oh also I looked to see how the ties were gonna work and it looks like the top 2 guys will be decided by the game tonight.

th00p has Baltimore (obviously)
Josh has Pittsburgh

If Pittsburgh wins then that will put Josh in first and a 4 way tie for second so the tiebreaker score will come into play this week probably and none of the ones that will be involved in any tie have picked the same number for the tiebreaker.

If Baltimore wins then th00p will be the winner and Josh will have second with no ties, and there will be a 5 way tie for third and none of the tiebreaker guesses are the same for any of those either.

GOOD LUCK GUYS.

PeterGriffin September 30 2008 9:08 AM EDT

And well last nights game was no surprise to most of us, defensive strong game but the score was allot higher than I expected. But back to the contest.


The winner is......

th00p



2nd is Josh

and third place was a 5 way tie but 1 team guessed the tiebreaker to within 2 points.
So 3rd place is...
The Pope

congrats guys and I will be sending out the prizes soon and posting week 5 so game on, and lets get more entries I had a bunch last week and that was great lets get more so there is more cash!!!

In one of your post you said there was 540k in the pot yet from what I see you only sent out 300k. I'm just curious as to where the confusion came in.

From the first weekly pool post:

"Winning team of the week will receive half of the cash received and the other half will go into the Fantasy Football Pot for the CB FF league. Also the winning team will get a free entry for the next week into the pool."

PeterGriffin September 30 2008 4:45 PM EDT

Yes I do place about half of the pool towards the CB Fantasy Football league pool. Thanks th00p for clearing that up. I also round up to the nearest 10k to the winners so the Fantasy Football pool doesn't get half it usually gets less.
