Welcome SFL members! If you are a rookie who just joined the league, a big welcome to you as well. So after a very fun season of picking winners each week in our Beat Writers’ pick’em race, we have finally finished the regular season. We will get into the the final standings but first there is a surprise i’d like to announce on top of some interesting stats from the pick’em race. The Beat writing team has decided to extend the race through the playoffs in a bracket styled pick’em! Allotted points are as followed:
Wild Card Wednesday has 2 games: Call winners of both. Correct answers are worth 2 points.
Division Round is 4 games: Call winners of all: Correct winners are worth 1 point.
Conference Finals is 2 games: Same as WCW
Championship Game: Correct winner is worth 4 points.
Notable achievements
– Christian had four perfect weeks which was the most amongst the group
– Sir Shady, Kanye R, Jeremy, Mahmoud, & Ryan M all had three perfect weeks
– Week 12 was the only week every writer had perfect regular picks
– No week saw the writers pick 100% correct or pick wrong
– Over a six week span, Christian totaled 19 points which is the most, then Kanye R with 17 points, and Jeremy and Sir Shady with 16 points
