Cappersmall NFL ATS/total survivor $100 buy-in and winner takes it all!!!
- We will play until there's one winner unless ALL remaining players agree to any pot splitting.
- No limit for # of entries per Cappersmall posting handle.
- No limit for the number of times any particular team can be selected on or against during the season/contest.
- To ease grading, all weekly selections during weeks 1-4 must be made within one post which includes a 15 minute grace period except if it extends beyond the deadline.
- Both sides ATS for any particular game cannot be selected per entry.
- Both OVER and UNDER for any particular game cannot be selected per entry.
- Only Sunday and Monday games will be available during the regular season.
- Regular season, originally scheduled games to be played Thursday and Saturday will not be available during this contest.
-Totals will be available ONLY for regular season Sunday night and Monday night games. If needed, sides and totals will be available for all playoff games.
-Weekly contest lines will be posted no sooner than Friday @ noon Eastern Standard Time and no later than Saturday @ noon EST....
-The weekly selection(s) deadline will be the SOONER of either Sunday 3:00 AM Eastern Standard Time or 30 minutes prior to kickoff for Saturday playoff games and rescheduled regular season games.
-Private selections will not be available during this contest until 3 or fewer players remain.
-Every private selection involving Saturday playoff games will be available for all players' viewing prior to kickoff. I really don't expect this to last thru the regular season, but stranger things have happened and so odd scenarios have been included in this list of rules.
-There will be a thread available each week for players to post picks prior to lines being posted. You will be graded using the official contest lines, but will assist players from being shut out who may not be available during the shorter window.
-All lines will include half points to prevent pushes.
-Selections involving canceled games (weather or any other reasons) will be graded as a loss unless another selection is made prior to Sunday 3am deadline from that week's schedule. Be careful making selections early when blizzards and/or hurricanes are lingering. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Here is where this contest gets tricky and more difficult. There will be a line gap for every side and total used in order to involve more actual handicapping rather than the typical cherry picking among stale lines.
Example:
New England -7.5 Kansas City +6.5
Minnesota -3.5 New Orleans +2.5
Detroit / Arizona OVER 49.5 UNDER 48.5
To advance weekly you must:

Weeks 7-17 correctly choose 1 of 1 ATS or O/U selection
Wildcard thru Super Bowl correctly choose 1 of 1 ATS or O/U selection
No team abbreviations. Guesses regarding which teams you've selected will be graded as losses.
Any disputes regarding contest rules will be decided by Dr. Jack.
