Tie games are possible in several of the sports we cover or plan to cover - as well as in player matchups, if the players score the same number of fantasy points (not that common, but it does happen). In all cases, we handle it the same way, and don't award any points to either side of the pick. In soccer, of course, ties are fairly common, and so I expect in Euro 2008 there will be a number of matches where no points are awarded. This will place a higher premium on getting right those matches where there is a win/loss result - which I think is a good thing.
