Hello Everyone,

Every year I like to run a tipping competition, but this year I thought I would try to run one on a much bigger scale. So, what is the tipping competition?

Basically it is an NFL Pick'em game where you choose the winner of every game, every week. I will track everyone's picks and keep a running table to see who is the best tipper on the forums.

Usually I have the Game of the Week (which is chosen totally randomly, not the actual game of the week :p) that is worth 2 points instead of 1.

It is free to play, just get your picks in before the start of the first game each week. At the beginning of every week, I will have a thread put up listing the games being played that week and which teams are on a bye week. I may be able to put some information on the games such as each teams recent record, last five games, vegas odds and other things.

There is no guarantee for a prize for a winner, beyond the Title of Most Knowledgeable NFL Fan on the forums :p Although, if we get enough people playing, maybe I can come up with something.

Just reply to this thread and let me know if you would be interested! If we get enough people, I will set it up and get a list of rules and things up. Thank for reading this!

I can offer up a donator account on the site, a forum "award", and probably a Bears T-Shirt or Jersey or something. I'll know what kind of funds I have to work with near the end of it. But I will definitely give something of that nature to this.

I am down.

We should make our string of picks, but also at the end include a "loser of the week" so we have a Survivor competition on the side. Thats the one where you can't pick the same team twice, and you have to keep picking a team that will lose every week.
