Probably that's due to a few 'push' games.  When the final score hits the
point spread exactly on the nose, the game is called a 'push' and both teams
get counted for a 'win'.at least that's what we do in Pick 'em to try to
help people get better records!

 

In real wagering, they just refund everyone's money.  No winners, no losers.

 

So it's possible to have more than 100% 'winners.'

John & Oz,

Thanks for your efforts & another good year of Pick'em. I am just curious
how the overall season results show the HOME teams won 72 games/ 50% of the
games and the AWAY teams won 76 games/ 53% of the games for a total of 103%.
With no ties my simple math says it should add to 100%, right???
