Pick-Five League

Welcome to the Greatest League Ever...

Rules:

- Players must pick 5 games, and each player is required to
pick the Monday Night Football game as one of their picks (If
there is no Monday game, pick any 5 games). Pick either
Monday Night game in Week One.

- One point will be scored for a win, one point subtracted for
a loss, and no change in the event of a push (i.e. matching
the spread).
- Win = 1 Loss = (1) Push = 0

- Picks MUST be submitted via e-mail to
nfl@lakehousemusic.com, by 11:59 pm Saturday for that
week's games (yes, that includes said time). Picks included
in e-mails time-stamped after that will not be honored.
- Picks for Thursday and Saturday games must have a
time-stamp before the published kick-off time of the chosen
game. Picks included in e-mails time-stamped after that will
not be honored. It is not necessary to pick all 5 games
before an early kick-off.
- Failure to make picks in any given week will count as 5
losses, no exceptions.
- You may not pick 2 teams that are playing each other. If
so, both will be counted as a loss (1).
- If no Monday game is taken, the last pick given will be
counted as a loss.

- Lines will be pulled from Friday's Detroit Free Press, except
for Thursday games, which will use Thursday's Detroit Free
Press. Games with no Free Press line will not be eligible for
picking. Lines will be posted here, not always before the
deadline, each week.

- Payment of $50 must be received before 12:00 am Sunday
of week 3. Players who have not paid by that time will be
dropped from the pool. Those of you I probably won't see,
contact me at bob@lakehousemusic.com to arrange
payment.

Thats it! Pretty easy stuff. Good luck, ladies and gentlemen.

If you're here, you're probably playing. That's awesome, thanks. We've made some
changes last year to make this happen, and I hope everybody likes it. It's meant to make
it less of a hassle for the administrator (me), and also to relieve all of us from any
scruples. I realize that it's gonna be a little tougher to make your picks now, but it will
eliminate any confusion and I don't like to be on the phone. Cut and dry, the rules are
above. They can be amended if we decide to, but we'll make sure that we all agree on
any changes. They probably won't be changed once we're under way anyhow. Please
feel free to make suggestions for improvement. Huge thanks to Jerry for getting us this
far, lets make it a good year. I'm already taking picks...

Thanks,

Bob
