NFL sweepstake.
An NFL sweepstake is a good excuse to stay up for Sunday night games. Each person is drawn teams at random, and points come from how far those teams go: making the playoffs, winning their division, winning a playoff game and on to the Super Bowl. SweepSquad does the fair draw and keeps the division tables and leaderboard in one place, so nobody needs to know their AFC from their NFC to join in.
