Arrow Coaches Fired Pool
We should do a coaches fired pool, similar to way a death pool is done.

We do draft, etc

We use NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and maybe some big college schools

It could be just simple for points. I'll add some points as well

Anyone interested?

We'd just need to work out the details but yeah that seems like a good start.

Open for all ideas with regards to rules, setup, etc

Yeah agree we need as many as possible I think.

Was thinking maybe we all pick 5 coaches each. Get a certain amount of points when it happens, get a replacement coach when it happens and maybe make some kind of other incentives.

So do we just have people pick any 5 or whatever coaches they want (don't matter if someone picks same as others) or do we have a draft and you actually all have separate coaches

Thoughts?

I agree that should do them all together. Gives a few options.

How would you score points?

Maybe score bonus points for how soon in the season they are fired? First coach fired in that sport?

I think draft is the way to go, that way we have some kind of strategy involved

Do you get double points if the coach dies first?
