2020 NFL playoff pick'em

[DaveC]

since our regular esteemed commissioner is currently MIA, i'll take on the role of acting commish for this year so that we're not scrambling on saturday morning to make picks and only get 5 participants like last year (with no winner announced).

nobody is new here and you all know how this works by now. if there is a lurker out there somewhere who wants to join in you're definitely welcome, let us know and we'll explain the rules.

don't forget to include total points in the super bowl as a tiebreaker. second tiebreaker is time of entry (earlier submission wins), as usual.

Our dearly departed former playoffs commish is a mathematician...

Dear chumps and chumpettes,

Once again the NFL playoffs are upon us, and with it the annual Interference NFL playoff pool.

To each of the playoff teams assign a unique integer between 1 and 12

http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f223/2015-16-nfl-playoffs-pool-219954.html#post8041147

Same deal as always. Assign to each of the twelve playoff teams a unique integer from 1 to 12.

http://www.u2interference.com/forums/f223/2014-15-nfl-playoffs-pool-217890.html#post7900763

Same rules as always. Assign a unique integer between 1 and 12 to each of the 12 playoff teams. If you break this rule, Ndamukong Suh will sit on you.

And so on, and so on...

 

[DaveC]

yeah, i know, i clearly included it in there right from the beginning so you just look pretty silly right now my friend

 

[Hewson]

Should have waited till 2:27 to log my complaint.

Barring another tragic memory failure, I'll make my picks when I get home from work tonight, and I'll see if I can get LeMel to join.

 

[DaveC]
