now that the holidays are over, I still feel like giving out great prizes. I've decided to increase the prize amounts for 2009 challenges, and here's the new distribution:

If the competitor beats both of us: 100k rep/50k cash
If the competitor beats one but ties the other: 50k rep/25k cash
If the competitor beats one of us: 25k rep/10k cash
If the competitor doesn't beat us: Nothing

NOTE: All picks must be submitted by Friday, 1/9 (BCS title game/props picks due Thursday, 1/8 at 5 PM Pacific). You may change any of your picks by Saturday, 1/10 (excluding the BCS title game/props) at 9 AM Pacific. Failure to NOT SUBMIT YOUR PICKS will lead to the participant being disqualified and another participant being selected off the sign up list to take part in this week's challenge.
