With online betting pretty much ended by the U.S. Government, I'm thinking Pick'em leagues would be a nice way to fill that void. I'm currently in one that I've been a part of for over 10 years which has been great and I'm looking to create a second one using the same rules (posted below). I already have some interest from friends, but I'd like to see if I can get more people since the more people in the league, the bigger the prizes. Please post or PM me if you are interested. If I can get above the critical mass number (about 25), I'll set it all up and let everyone know. If you have any questions, just let me know and I'll try to answer them. I'm hoping to get this off the ground - going to be hard to go all season without some kind of action!
Buy-in - $100 - I'll use Leaguesafe or whatever other money management site will make everyone comfortable.
Site - Yahoo - it does it well and it's free
Rules - Pick EVERY game each week against the spread
Payouts - 50% of total pot goes to weekly high scorers, 50% goes to top 3 at end of regular season (broken out 50%, 30%, 20% respectively)
For Example - if 40 people join, the pot is $4,000. $2,000 goes to weekly winners ($2,000/17), and the Top 3 get $1,000, $600, and $400 at the end of the season.
