FOFC-NFL High/Low- Week 1

TLK · 09-08-2004, 12:25 PM

I wanted to run some sort of NFL contest for this season, and this game seems like it would be fun.

The Rules:

-Pick one team for the "High" and one team for the "Low". You may only use each team once for the High and once for the Low.

Ex.

High: Lions
Low: Cowboys

-Scoring: High score minus Low score

Ex.

High: Lions 35
Low: Cowboys 13

Score for the week: 22

If your Low outscores the High, you are eliminated for the rest of the season.

The remaining member with the highest score at the end of the season, wins the contest.

Please make your picks in this thread.....

albionmoonlight · 09-08-2004, 01:33 PM

Interesting. I wonder if anyone will last the season. Once you use up the Chiefs and Vikings for highs and the Cardinals and Chargers for lows, it would get really dicey.

High- Houston
Low- Tampa Bay

Like the loser's challenge, might I suggest putting a link at the bottom each week to the new thread so those of us with email notification get a reminder.

Low: NY Giants

question: Is your score (if positive) cumulative through the season?

for example, if my score for week 1 = 30

but my score on week 2 is -5, do I still have 25 points? or am I eliminated?
