Every week, ALL READERS of this site are encouraged to select their picks. The winner at the conclusion of the regular season will receive a Fabulous Literary Prize: an autographed copy of my novel To The Last Drop (or, if you already have my book, I'll send you a few fresh chapters from my new novel-in-progress, The Object: a love story).Last year Miwacar won the regular season and Jess won the playoffs. One of these years, it would be nice if I could win. Just saying.
These will be the categories every week, with an occasional bonus question:
The Big Shoe-InPick one team that will definitely win. Lace it up for +2 points or step in elephant poo for -4 points.
The Little Shoe-In
Pick one team that will probably win. It's worth +1 point, or -2 if you step in #2.
Surprise!
Pick the longshot underdog of the week, drawing from a weekly Underdog List. Surprise the world for +3 points.
I Dislike Your Favorite TeamEach week you may either pick your favorite team to win or you may pick your most disliked team to lose. Your favorite and least favorite can't change during the season.
Exempli gratia, my favorite team will always be the DC Skins, while the Dallas Cowpucky will always be my most disliked team. This scores +1 point.
The Original Clash of the Titans
Get back to basics. A different featured Game Of The Week, every week, for seventeen weeks for +/- 2 points.
