Ok Folks.  It's been too long since I ran one.  Let's have a contest to add some excitement to an otherwise mediocre playoff round (my Commanders didn't make it.....again!!!  :hityou:)

The Rules: Submit one entry per person.  Pick the total combined scores of all 4 games.  So that would be adding all 8 scores together for 1 big number.  Closest to the winning number wins!  The cutoff is the kickoff of the first Saturday game - Jaguars and Chiefs @ 4:30.

Who Can Play?  EVERYONE!!!  Old and New.  Lurkers...sign up and submit.  I don't care if you have never posted a thing on this site.

The Prize: A 5er of Liga Privada #9s.

Any questions, let me know.  Good luck!  Attached is the schedule for the games.

Here are the list of folks and their numbers from lowest to highest.  Some lower scores than expected for most folks guesses.  We'll see if today's games ramp the scores up a bit.  Right now headfirst is looking pretty good for taking the low side.

Well defense certainly kept the scores low for headfirst.  Total sum of scores came in at a very low 160.  Congrats Gary!
