2014 CGD Announcement

It's that time of year again. The third annual Commercial Girl Draft is a little more than five weeks away on Wednesday, January 1, 2014. And this year the twists and turns will begin a little early. While the order of our first two drafts were determined via a random lottery, this year our drafters are going to have the opportunity to take matters into their own hands.

Here's how:

Thursday, November 28, besides being Thanksgiving, marks the beginning of Week 13 of the NFL season. All 32 teams will be participating in 16 games. All you have to do is tell me who will win each game. If you've never been in a "Pick 'Em" pool before, it couldn't be simpler: Go through each game of the Week 13 schedule and predict the winner. This pool will also include confidence points. Along with each pick, be sure to assign a point value based on how confident you are in that prediction, from 1 for your least confident pick to 16 for your most deadlock cinch. For every game you correctly predict, you receive the confidence points you assigned to it. Your confidence points double as a ranking so be sure not to repeat point values.

You must also submit your final score prediction for the Monday Night game between the New Orleans Saints and Seattle Seahawks. In the event of a tie the player closest to the combined final point total will win the tiebreaker. Should there still be a tie the second tiebreaker will be go to the player closest to the home team's final score.

At the end of the Monday Night game I will tally the points for each participant. The player with the most points will receive the first overall draft pick in the 2014 Commercial Girl Draft. So let's get to the games:

Thursday

• Green Bay Packers AT Detroit Lions
• Oakland Raiders AT Dallas Cowboys
• Pittsburgh Steelers AT Baltimore Ravens

Sunday

• Jacksonville Jaguars AT Cleveland Browns
