    Didn't someone used to run a playoff pool where you rank the teams 12-1 and then get points for every win that team gets.

    EX:

    12. GB
    11. NO
    10 NE

    I get 12 points for every GB win, 11 for every NO win, etc....


    Anyone want to set this up or know who ran it in the past?

    I ran something else with confidence points a couple of years ago that was fun, but don't think I want to risk my paypal account running it again this year. Sigh @ the DOJ.

    I am just going to play in Tread's pool this year. Will think about doing a pool if Poker is ever regulated in the US where people can play internationally and transfers between people are allowed. Had my paypal temporarily locked once in the past year, that is enough for me.

    I would play and wouldnt even mind running it or helping somebody, but im sure there are other people who would do a better job with it. Im already holding for the Fantasy premier league and wouldnt really want to hold for another pool tbh

    I would not want to use the broncos either if that was a rule, but id use the saints twice instead of the texans

    was hoping this would run again, these are always fun. i'll hold if anyone wants to do the work.

    I ran this for the last 3 years. One of my favorite pools too. Unfortunately, im still in the process of moving and its impossible to run a pool while living in a hotel and the only access to the internet is my phone.

    Next year it will be back. Sorry guys.

    I think you've been watching the wrong NFL season on DVR

    True, the Jets fucked up their season, so Pats might make it to the Super Bowl this year. ;) Like picking wildcard teams though higher because of the extra game. I should have probably had them #7 though ahead of the Texans.

    We'll see, have always done well in these types of pools. Also rather not root for the Patriots if I was betting money on this since I have to root for the Ravens for Blackout's season long Franchise pool.
