Might as well get this going. The rules:
You must pick 3 NFL sides or totals each week of the regular season. The lines we will use will be from Pinnacle, as of Tuesday or Wednesday each week, whichever day is easier to post them.
Each selection is worth 1 point if it's correct, -1 if wrong, 0 if a tie. You have the option of making one of your selections double value each week. So, you have the potential of risking as many 4 points each each.
It gets a little more tricky when playoffs start. For Wildcard and Division rounds (first 2 weeks), you select 2 or 3 sides/totals. Each of these selections is worth 2 points, and you have the option of making one of them 3. You could be risking as few as 4 points or as many as 7 in each of those weeks.
For Conference Championships, you can select 1 or 2 games worth 3 points each - with the option of making one of them worth 4. This allows you to risk as few as 3 or as many as 7 points.
For the Superbowl, you must select 1 side or total worth 5 or 7 points.
These rules can be modified before season starts if Happy Hippo and Kramer would like.
As stated in the general section (http://www.madjacksports.com/forum/showthread.php?t=294663), this a $20 contest with the winner getting the entire booty. As of now, the booty is at $180. Here are the official contestants so far...

As human resources manager, Hippo said we could accomodate a few more entries if interested. I wouldn't mind seeing a bigger booty.
OK then, I guess let the games begin ......in a couple weeks.
