PLAYOFFS
PLAYOFF TEAMS
Playoff teams will consist of each divisional winner plus two wild card teams. The wild card teams will be the teams in the conference with the best record who did not win their division. In case of a tie, head to head is the first tie breaker then total points and finally division record. If there is still a tie it will be broken by a coin flip. If 3 or more teams have a tied record that is the best record except for division winners then if 1 team swept the other 2 they make the playoffs. If not it goes straight to a total points tie breaker. The top teams in each conference gets a bye week 1 of the playoffs (week 15).
​

THE CASH
Any team that makes the playoffs automatically receives their $40 back. Even Board Members who don’t pay have the ability to win this money. There will be a $10 payout per week for the team who scored the most points in that week. Fourth place will get 5% and a trophy. Third place will get 10% and a trophy. Second place will get 25% of the leftover cash and a trophy. First place will get 60% of the leftover cash and a large trophy, plus the traveling trophy for one year. These winnings include all the money from acquisitions but minus $10 per week paid out to the top scoring team of the week and the trophies.
