Football Eliminations

Post by ricktopher » Sun Aug 28, 2005 6:30 am

I have been running an eliminations pool for 5 years now, mostly guys at work. Checked with Greg and got the ok to open it up to you guys. I know you guys don't know me, so let me give you some background.
First off I am a business owner, own a small motel in Big Bear Lake, CA, and have a website. I have been selling on ebay since April 2001, my user name there is blurick, you can check it out there.

This is not a scam, I have paid out all the monies all the previous 5 years on time.

To the contest:
I have a web site done for this contest, it explains all the rules, go to
www.footballelims2005.com.

Briefly, cost is $50, it is an elimination/survivor pool. Pick 1 winner each week(NO POINTSPREAD) and you move on to the next week. Winner take all.

Check out the site and please feel free to ask questions.

Rick - I read the instructions. I have a question. The rules do not state if you can pick the same team more than once. Most of the pools I've been in do not allow you to pick a team more than once, thus eliminating your choices from week to week.

Am I reading the rules correctly? Can we pick the same team more than once in a sesaon?
Thanks - Pete

Yes, you can jump on board any team and stay with them all season if you want. Actually had someone do that with the Rams a few years back and they got close to winning it but,........... no guarantees in the NFL.

At the present time its 12, that money in hand and not just promises. I have about 2 dozen or more promises. Have a local Fantasy league that 8 of the owners said to count them in. Most wait till last minute.
