Shooting the moon!
 
I am in an office football pool where you pick every game. I am 0-15 so far this week. This is nearly as improbable as being 15-0. So tonight I try and shoot the moon and get a perfect 0-16 on the week. I have the Saints over the 9ers giving +4.5 to the 9ers.

So, if you're the betting type, pick the 9ers plus the points.

Seriously though, what are the odds of getting every pick wrong in a week? I couldn't have done this if I had tried.

We had a European History teacher who gave multiple choice tests which could have more than one answer, so you had to select all the correct answers, not just one. He told us that that if we got every single answer wrong, then he would give us a 100%. I don't think anyone took him up on it...

I think you should get a runner up prize if the Niners cover.

Well, I did it. The Saints won, but didn't cover the spread. 0-16.
