CFL Pickem Available

11:44 PM ET on 6/21/15 by Jay Soester

CFL Pickem is now available. Play for free.

Why?
Those of you that have been around the website long enough may remember CFL Pickem as a yearly occurance, even being promoted to one of the website's feature games for the 2012 season. With the success of NASL Pickem as a Reddit originated game, I decided to bring CFL Pickem back with that in mind and at the request of current members.

How? - The Features
Here are the game rules. Predict the score of each of the 81 regular season and 5 postseason games and earn points based on your picks versus the real scores. You earn 30 points for a correct result, up to 15 for the correct winning margin, up to six points for each correct team score, and six extra points if you pick the exact score correctly. The person with the most points from each of their picks is the winner. CFL Pickem and NFL Pickem use the same scoring system.

We keep track of weekly, monthly, and full season results.

We also ask that each participant select the team they're a fan of, so that we can keep track of the best performing fan group in the CFL. We also provide the standings within each fan group.

Beyond the game standings, we offer league and game stats. There's a Game Averages & Percentages page that can help you make picks. We also break down the member standings by team picks, the team standings by points earned for each member, and the CFL standings based on the picks by each member.
We also have the full season results grid as well as the plain game score grid that doesn't take teams into account. We also have a breakdown of each team's average points scored and points against by location.

You can also use the game to team schedules.

If the CFL subreddit isn't enough discussion you can discuss the game and league on our message board thread.

If you have any feature ideas you'd like to see, please mention them in the game thread and/or email me.

I'm currently looking for volunteers to help with score updates and a weekly preview and/or review writer. I'm open to reproducing content from another website or otherwise partnering with another website. I'm aware the ads on this website are subpar and have generally removed them from CFL Pickem. I'm hoping to find a sponsor of the game, email me if interested. If a sponsor can be found, I may be able to offer up a prize to the winner(s).

Tim Schneider's NFL Mock Draft

3:44 AM ET on 4/25/12 by Jay Soester

With the draft rapidly approaching, here are my thoughts on how the first round will pan out.

1. Indianapolis Colts - QB Andrew Luck, Stanford

This has already been announced. Luck will don a horseshoe helmet and see just how Lucky he is. As the most coveted collegiate prospect in over a decade, he has lofty expectations to meet. His journey will officially begin Thursday night, though in reality, it began two years ago.

Game Reminders

12:02 PM ET on 1/13/12 by Jay Soester

You know Tebow's a big deal when he gets the Taiwanese animation treatment. The Divisional Round of Fantasy NFL Playoffs is just a day away with the deadline for lineups being 4:27 PM ET on Saturday. Don't forget that you can't use a player (or team defense) that you used in the Wild Card Round. To help everyone remember to get their lineups in on time, I'm also including my favorite Tebow spoof from Conan. Let me know which spoof you prefer.

While we're on game reminders, the first deadline for Fantasy Tennis is this Sunday at 7 PM ET. The Australian Open draws have been announced. Simply reply to the game thread with your eight men and eight women to submit your lineup.
