Are You Ready for Some Football?
I know I mentioned this a while ago, but who is interested in playing a football pool this season? It’s nothing as time extensive as a fantasy football league - all you have to do in this pool is pick the winners for the games and choose your confidence in your choice.
Here’s an example…lets say there’s 5 games being played this week.
Red vs. Blue
Green vs. Orange
Black vs. White
Gray vs. Pink
Yellow vs. Purple
Within each game, choose who you think will win. Once you choose your winning teams, then rank them in order of 1-5 as to how confident you are that that team will win. Let’s say this is how I think the games will go down:
Red will beat Blue - 4 confidence because red is a pretty strong team
Orange will beat Green - 1 confidence, because both teams are about even
Black will beat White - 2 because Black has been on a losing streak, but I think they’ll win this one
Gray will beat Pink - 3
Purple will beat Yellow - 5 because Yellow sucks and Purple is the best team in the league
Depending on what happens with the game, the amount of correct guesses I have adds up the corresponding confidence points. Lets say all my picks were right except for the Black game, that means that my total points come out to 13.
It sounds confusing right now, but really, it’s easy!
In a nutshe11, you pick the winners each week, assign them a number - if your pick wins, you win that number.
At the end of the season, the overall winner (or top 3 depending on how many people play) will get a nifty prize.
