Home Another season is upon us, and it's time to get things ready for the first games on Sept 5, 2013. The league rules are listed below for your benefit: Players will need to enter their picks for the coming week by the due date. Make your selections online at www.OfficeFBP.com/fbp2013 or print a pick sheet on the website and be sure to return your sheet by the date and time shown to Woody at fax number (630) 607-7835, email your selections to picks@OfficeFBP.com. On the website you will be directed to your user information to check and update if necessary or if faxing your pick sheet indicate whether you will be a weekly or casual player. For weekly players, your entry fee of $34.00 ($2.00/week) plus a $4.00 add-on (to pay additional places weekly and the 10 places overall) for a total of $38.00 will be due BEFORE the second week. Please comply with this deadline for fees, or we will not be able to enter your picks. Casual players ($3.00/week) fees are due before the start of the next week or your selections can not be entered. The Post Season Playoff will have a separate fee schedule distributed in Dec 2013 along with a pick sheet. The
website www.OfficeFBP.com/fbp2013
will have the current consensus,
pick sheets and results weekly. If you wish to receive a consensus
sheet (picks for all players) for the current week include a FAX NUMBER
that is ready at all times, because I will not be able to send one to your
location if you must receive a phone call first. A separate fee
of $1.00/per week ($17.00 for a weekly player) will be required for
those requesting a fax of the consensus and results each week. If more than
one player is at the same fax number, the fee will only apply once for the
same fax number. This additional fee is due at the same time as your entry
fees. If you have internet access, you can save this fee by getting your
weekly consensus sheet and results from the web page shown previously. Make your
weekly selections by marking each games winner and giving that game a
confidence number based on how strong you feel about the outcome. For a
sixteen game week, confidence points 1 to 16 are used. You can use a number
only once with the highest number (16) going to the game you feel the
strongest about and the lowest number (1) to the game you are least confident
about its outcome. A fourteen game week would use points 1 to 14 and so
forth. If the team you selected wins that game, the confidence points you
assigned are awarded and a total for the week is determined. If a game ends
in a tie, everyone wins that game and receives the confidence points they
assigned for that game. The tie breaker, total points scored for both
teams of the Monday night game, is used to break ties in the event more than
one player has the same total confidence points for that week with the winner
going to the one whose total score is closest to the actual total of the game
score. Remember to indicate the total score on your pick sheet. Please
note- If you forget to make a pick or enter a confidence number for a
given game or forget to indicate total points, I will fill in what I can
figure out but will not be able to contact you to get the
correction. If you have any questions, you can contact me at the email
address below or call and leave a message at the number below. If a weekly
player forgets to get their picks in by the weekly deadline (usually before
the first game that week for internet access), they will receive the default
picks for the week. The default picks are all visiting teams and
confidence points assigned 1 to number of games top to bottom and the default picks cannot win a week.
Each week $1.00 of the entry fee is paid out to the players with the highest total for confidence points (65% to 1st place, 25% to 2nd and 10% to 3rd) and the other $1.00 goes toward the final pot to be paid out at the end of the season to the top ten players with highest total accumulated confidence points. Places 4 thru 10 are paid out based on your entry fee of $38 so 10th place returns the entry fee, 9th is 1.5 times the entry fee, 8th is 2 times the entry fee, 7th is 2.5 times the fee, etc. The remaining balance will be paid out 60% to 1st place, 30% to 2nd and 10% to 3rd. In the case of a tie any given week, the total payout is split equally among the winners. At season end, ties for the top spots split the winnings for the places they hold, a tie for 1st and 2nd would split 90% of the total while a tie for 2nd and 3rd would split 50% of the total and so forth. The post season playoff will use the same percentages for winners. Please send your fee to the address listed below by the deadline indicated. Update your user information on the website or on your first sheet please include an address where your winnings would be sent. If you are interested in receiving a weekly consensus sheet and weekly recap (additional fee as shown above), include a fax number where it can be sent. Also, include a phone number where you can be reached if we have any questions, you have forgotten to mark a game or a total score. Make
