 BAD MAN 2026

Please ensure that your selections are submitted each week by Friday, 11PM Eastern. This deadline is strictly enforced, and no exceptions will be made. Failure to submit your selections will result in an 0-5 record for the week. Please be aware that all decisions regarding this matter are final. It is strongly advised not to wait until the last minute to send your selections, as this responsibility lies with you and not with me.

This contest will award payouts to the top three participants as follows:

  • The winner will receive 50% of the prize pool.
  • The second-place finisher will receive 30% of the prize pool.
  • The third-place finisher will receive 20% of the prize pool.

5-0 Side Jackpot

The total amount collected in the side pool will be divided by the number of weeks (18 weeks) and distributed to players who achieve a perfect 5-0 record for the week. In the event that multiple individuals achieve a 5-0 record, the prize pool for the week will be divided among them. If no one attains a 5-0 record, the prize pool for that week will carry over to the following week. In the final week, if no one achieves a 5-0 record, the participant with the best record for week 18 will be awarded the final side pool. It is important to note that all funds in the prize pool will be paid out.

 

In Memory of Muhammad Ali who gave me the idea for the name of this contest.
