The regular season hasn't been good to me, let's see how I do in the playoffs.
Just one question,
We get 4 points for guessing the Super Bowl winner, but we can only get 3 points in that week, max. How is that?

You get 4 additional points if you pick the Superbowl winner before Week 1 of the playoffs. If that team you pick to win the Superbowl is knocked out of the playoffs before the Superbowl you can pick a different team to win the Superbowl, but for less additional points. Ah, I get it now.

Didn't do so well this season but now that I know who the good teams are (I think) I'll try this one out.

I've been around the site for 3 years but this is the first I have seen the "tipping competition". ...I know sad...
I would love to take part if you will have me. Maybe I will have a healthy dose of beginners luck!
I still have the Falcons/Pats in the Super Bowl. The 'Who Dat' Saints are going down! LOL.

If you'd found it a little sooner, you'd have made only the second time in FT history to have 30 participants in any tipping comp (record is 32).  Rx, you are welcome to join any comp at any time...just post your tips in the current thread and remember to bold/underline/italicize picks (as long as one team is in a different format and not regular font in the three I run, I am ok with that (prefer the bolding though)).

the Saints will beat them in double digits  ...which will make my brother mad. As long as the Eagles or Saints aren't in, he's happy...doesn't matter that much to me.

A Saints fan freind of mine said the Saints were gonna beat the lowly Bucks with double digits yesterday as well. What happen LOL? Better not play like that for the next four games if they are lucky enough to play in them.  Atlanta Falcons all the way  Best of luck to everyone!
