No prizes for 2nd, so go for gold.

Anyone that is on the fence about participating, it's your time to join! No cost to you, all upside!

Hello all!
Welcome to this year’s “Armchair Endzone” competition.

FYI other websites considered (let me know if you feel these may be better for future years!):
-CBS - don’t particular want to support one of the big commercial corporate channels
-WagerLab - betting
-RunYourPool and OfficeFootballPool - not free
-Office Pool Junkie - too many ads
— Same for OfficePoolStop

Reminder that there are 2 comps on PoolHost and you need to join each individually (but with the same login etc).
All good if you only want to do 1 comp, but just didn’t want anyone to miss out.

Currently 10 for Confidence, 8 for Survivor
