After you've created your team, just sit back and watch your players amass points for you throughout the season. The more points you earn, the more money you can win! And with BetJamaica throwing in as much as an additional 25% of the total prize pool, you could win a LOT of money!

Yes sir, Every morning you will be able to log in and see how many points your players got the night before.

You have the exact same team for the entire season, Other than that there is no work involved. There are no starting rosters, there are no trades, nothing like that.

You do not even have to register at officepools.com all you need is the user name and password.

You may want to consider fielding two teams in case one of your teams gets plagued by injuries.

I can fart away $100 bucks on that, just to help fill it, I'll probably let the wife or cat pick it. Maybe split it between cat/ wife ?

Doug this is exactly what I mean.... ANYBODY can win this, and even those who do not know the players should not SHY AWAY from this contest.

It's not worth researching the players, just pick anybody and take the slight overlay.

Seems a tiebreak might be needed ?

Thanks for setting this up Sportsavant. I don't think I'll take part though.

Is there going to be a betting contest like last year? Maybe something where we can bet a couple of times a week?

Nice work Sport. Expect an entry from yours truly.

NHL contest? Nobody cares about hockey, this is a waste of effort. :finger:
