Pro Pick'em Bonus

The Pro-Pick'em Bonus Game allows the player to pick 12 NFL games each week. Each game is ranked from 12 points to 1. IF the team you pick wins the game (no point spread required), you get the number of points specified. In addition, you can specify one of those games to be a "bonus" game. If that team wins, you get double the points.

Sounds simple eh?...

Here's the catch : if the team loses or ties, you get a negative point score equal to how you assigned the points. No big deal you say? Catch #2 - you can only bonus a team that is playing against a team with a .500 or better record. No picking against the 49ers each week !

Go 12 for 12 and get a 10 point bonus for a nice even 100 point week.

The first tie breaker is the number of games picked correctly. 10 for 12 with 85 points beats 9 for 12 with 85 points.

The last tie-breaker is related to the games you are not assigning points to (usually 4 or 5 games). The one who picks the most games correctly wins the second tie-breaker. If you choose to not pick those games you'll get a zero and lose the tie-breaker to someone who did.
