All the games for the week will be entered by the commissioner each Tuesday and will include NFL games only. Each game will consist of a Favorite, an Underdog, and the Spread. When all the games have been entered, all players will be able to make their picks.

All picks must be made by Wednesday at 9:00 PM of each week. When all picks have been made, the commissioner will lock in the picks. At that time the players can go to the All Picks page and see everyone's picks. You cannot see anyone else's picks until everyone has made their picks.

Picks are made by choosing the team from each game that you think will cover the spread. When you pick a team, you assign it a number between 16 and 1. If the team you picked covers the spread, you get the number of points that you assigned it. If the team you picked does not cover the spread, you get no points. In the event of a Push (neither team covers the spread), nobody gets points. When all the games are complete, your points are totaled for the week. If you have the most points for the week, you win.
All the weekly points are totaled and displayed in the season standings on the Home page. If you have the most points at the end of the season, you win.

In addition to picking the teams, you can also make a guess at the total number of points of the final game of the week. This will determine the weekly winner in the event of a tie. The closest to the final game's point total will win. If you do not enter the tie breaker, you cannot win the tie breaker.
