Like last year, there may be a prize for the category winners (high average, number of wins, etc.) to keep things interesting...If you missed game a game along the way, you can still play for individual game wins and records as well as the highest average per game.  If you haven't joined in yet, please do!

The whole thing is just for fun, so please participate, enjoy the contest and have fun!

Good Luck Bulls!

As with previous years' contests, Bulliever is the final judge on all entries.  He will select the winner based on pre-established criteria.   All decisions are final, unless Bulliever changes his mind.  Finally, Bulliever will only refer to himself in the third person when typing in small print.

Don't forget that you will have three picks in three consecutive days, so be alert to the prediction threads as I will post them (in a minimal version) at the conclusion of each game.  A lot of ground can be gained or lost in the 3-day span...be on your game Bulls fans.
