The TMRzoo “Beat the House” Week 7 picks and predictions are live and voting is now open. The House had it’s ass handed to him in week 6. The membership’s 9 correct picks were plenty enough to top the House’s 6. The Madden 10 simulation on the Xbox 360 only nabbed 8 of the 14 picks correctly. It as a tough week for everyone. Get your week 7 picks in now and try your best to Beat the House and move up the TMR Leaderboard in the process.
It looks like only 4 games will be close in voting this week, the rest could be blowouts. Chime in by agreeing or disagreeing with the House picks.
Don’t know what I’m talking about? What is this agree and disagree crap?
It’s Beat the House, the TMRzoo’s exclusive football pool. The rules of the game are easy… Each week, our resident football genius will predict the outcome of all the week’s games. You, the members, agree or disagree with the “House” picks in hopes to achieve a better set of picks for the week. If the collective membership predicts more games correctly, then the House is beaten and prizes are awarded. What prizes? You’ll have to read on below.
Every member’s total picks will be tracked over the course of the season and displayed on the weekly leaderboard. At the end of the season, the member with the most correct overall picks will be named the grand prize winner. Last season our winner was awarded a set of DVDs that would likely rival most people’s entire collection.
Sound easy enough? It is. The best part is that there are no entry fees and no obligations. All you have to do is register in the TMR forums because we track your picks using that screen name… so choose it wisely.
The Prizes…
If the House is beaten, one random member will win a DVD prize pack containing at least 3-5 DVDs. The pack will include at least one current-release DVD. Be on the look out for special releases and box sets as well. Again, this is only awarded to a member IF the collective membership Beats that House for that given week.
The member with the most correct picks each week is guaranteed a new Pro Grip Football, courtesy of NERF. If more than one member leads the pack in any given week, ties will be broken by overall picks on the year. Winners can choose from pre-selected NFL team footballs. Not all NFL teams are available.

After members have made their weekly game selections, it is time to participate in the “Nickent Players of the Week”. Members guess who they think will be named the offensive and defensive players of the week. If both of those players are named as the NFL players of the week for that specific week, the member is awarded a full set of Nickent Golf Clubs in a shiny new stand bag. See the lineup below. Please, PLEASE read the official rules for this part of the contest… especially the spelling part.

So how does all that sound? All you have to do is register in the TMRzoo forums (if you haven’t already) and visit the Beat the House weekly picks page to make your selections. We’re very much looking forward to this ultimate version of “Beat the House” and I hope you are as well. Tune back in on Tuesday, and every Tuesday throughout the season, to see the updated leaderboard and where you rank against The House and the rest of the membership.
Good Luck and have a great 2009 season!
