2 checkable claims — 1 game outcome pick and 1 trade and signing call — each graded on its own rather than as one all-or-nothing call.

It names 3 players and teams, each linked to their own record.

1 of 2 have settled so far, averaging 100 out of 100, against 0 for a naive guess at the same calls.

> Otherwise, this to me is an easy revenge hammer for the Ram.
