Old regular season competition
Spoiler:
Group Name - RealGM 2023, Password - NBA (you may not need this with this link) - link - https://fantasy.espn.com/free-prize-games/sharer?from=espn&challengeId=230&context=GROUP_INVITE&edition=espn-en&groupId=2cd83380-e418-43b2-a4b8-017122560350&joinKey=52b6d6fc-82db-3aef-9103-62f4755a1fe8

Hey all, once again we will be having the NFL Picks against the spread competition for all of RealGM forum members.

It only takes a couple minutes to join and also to make your picks each week, and you can see how you do against fellow forum members as well as experts. It adds an extra interest to the games on Sunday, so hopefully people join in and participate to make things fun. Your worst week will be dropped, so no worries if you completely forget one week, or join after the first weekend you are not out of it, that will just end up being your week dropped.

Password is NBA (may not need with this link but just in case)

Please use RealGM username for name of entry (or espn account or both)

When does it start?
Register and submit your entry no later than the first weekend of the NFL season - Sunday, September 10th, at 1:00 pm ET, but preferably sooner. However,, if you completely miss week one, no big deal because each participant's worst week is dropped, so you could still sign up by the following week and not be behind.

How to Play?
1. Join group. Pick an entry name that matches your RealGM username. If you don't already have an account, you can click on "Play Now for Free" and it will ask you to log in or create an account and you can create account there. Many participants use their realgm username for their espn account and their contest entry name.

Rules
[*] Each Tuesday, spreads will be posted on ESPN for the the upcoming week.

[*] Lock-time. All entries will use a rolling lock which allows a player to pick any game that has yet to kick off. Selections submitted after the deadlines are considered invalid, and no points will be received. It is good to make preliminary picks a few days before the games and adjust your picks leading up to the games as you see fit to eliminate the chance of forgetting to make any picks that week at all.

[*] Overall tie-breaker - higher number of points scored for Week 17.
- --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - --- - ---
Competition
Beat the Commish Champion
The player with the highest number of correct picks throughout the season wins the title.

Each correct winning pick will receive one (1) point. Points are not lost for incorrect picks. Picking every game, every week is essential.

However, to ensure people don't drop out if they forget a week or have a terrible week, each entry will have their lowest scoring week dropped from their score.

I don't think there is a competition picking all the NBA games throughout the season. That would require a lot of time and people would be likely to forget days.
