5) A total of seven (7) NFL football picks must be made each week: Players are allowed any combination of sides and/or totals when making their contest picks.

6) Selections must be submitted by 10:00 pm (CST) Central Standard Time on Saturday night if no Thursday games are being used as a selection. If a contestant is using a Thursday game as a selection, then EVERY PICK that contestant is selecting for the week must be made before kickoff of the 1st game on Thursday. Furthermore, all picks will be viewable to the public on Saturday after the 10pm CST deadline. No Thursday picks will be viewable until after the Saturday "Make Picks" deadline has passed. Therefore, if you make your picks on Thursday, no worries, nobody will see your NFL contest picks until 10:01pm CST Saturday.

7) Selections may NOT be modified. Once a user submits their NFL Football Contest picks, they are official and they cannot be change. Therefore, make sure the picks you enter are the selections you can live with for the week. No changes can be made, once the system accepts your selections, they cannot be altered.

8) Contest players picks must be ranked from 7 units (highest rated play) down to 1 unit (lowest rated play). Therefore, contest plays will be ranked from highest to lowest (7 units, 6 units, 5 units, 4 units, 3 units, 2 units, and 1 unit).

9) All contest plays will be graded as -1.10 plays for losses and +1.00 plays for wins. Therefore, if a 7-unit play you submit loses, it will be graded as a negative -7.70 units. If a 7-unit play wins, that play will be graded as a positive +7.00 units. If a pick pushes/ties, then you will not lose any points, nor will you gain any, you will simply be given a tie status. The breakdown for plays is as follows: The contestant with the highest amount of units won at the end of the NFL Week 17 schedule will be declared the winner. *Note: We do not grant a prize for the contestant with the best overall win/lost record. This is all about the units baby!

Tie Breaker #1: In case of a tie, the person with the most wins will be declared the winner.

Tie Breaker #2: If players have the same amount of wins, then the players will go head to head in Round 1 of the NFL playoffs using 3 picks, instead of 7 picks. The points system will be the same 3 units, 2 units and 1 unit. All picks will be submitted by email to Ron Raymond and the cut off time will be 1 hour prior to the first NFL Playoff game.

Tie Breaker #3: If contest players are tied after the second tie breaker, then they will split the prize money.
