NFL Playoff Betting Pool

We play for avatars for a week, and the Super Bowl will be for both avatars and titles for a week. Straight up or down betting, all 4 games required. If someone ties at 3 out of 4, or 4 out of 4 they don't have to change their avatar. But if you lose 2 or more out of your picks you have to change it regardless.

Take your pick:

There should be several winners and several losers. And I was thinking the losers would have to use one of the avatars I created. I couldn't find anything really humiliating that looked right shunk to avatar size.

But let's keep looking and next week, maybe we can come up with something truly horrifying. Maybe we can even get Slowhand to photoshop us something.

think we're going to have to do that point spread thing for the superbowl because to change everyone's title there must only be one winner.

but yeah i like your pick one of the following, idea for avatars.

Because it was created by Teri.

That's a good point. I couldn't really set a time, like noon tomorrow. I'm going to see if Eric can get the time right.
