Would you like to play a game ?

Yea, sure.......


Here's my suggestion....and it would be open to all posters.

--You and I would alternate weekly picking 4 games to wager credits on AGAINST THE SPREAD.

--Each person starts with 10 (or maybe more) credits.

--Each person could wager as many credits as they want (or none at all) on each game

--If a person falls to zero credits he or she is eliminated.

That's the basics...and I think it would be a good tutorial for those not familiar with sports wagering and a fun challenge for everybody. If interest is high then maybe V would offer some type of subscription as a prize to the winner (or if not I'd cover it UNLESS I win then you'd have to do it)

Thoughts ?

I'm in. Whose lines will we be using? How do you want to pick the games? Do we each pick 4 of our own or do we all pick the same 4 games? Deadline for picks to be in?

I like the idea....

We can use that site (we both know) you use on a regular basis for the lines.
I was thinking that the 4 games would be picked by us two on alternating weeks. You could start with tomorrow's games....or maybe start it all next weekend to give people a chance to read and join.

So basically each week one of us would post the line for the 4 games, say Friday evening by 7pm. Then we go from there by posting our picks with a credit amount for each game? We could devote a single thread for this project and everyone can play along keeping track of their credits of course. I can put 4 games up here in a half hour unless you wanted to promote this another week. I would rather you start the dedicated thread because always use catchy thread topics.....

People seem to like my nephew (low milk) more than me....so maybe I'll ask him to start it. We'll feel out the interest before starting it week one....although there's a great chance that not wagering is the best first option anyway.

GSU @ WVU -17.5

Penn St -6.6 @Temple

Arizona St @ Texas A&M -3

Ville @ Auburn -10

These are current lines as of 6:30pm

Looks like it may just be us two..... ....can you verify that PSU spread?

---WVU - 17.5 for 1 credit
---PSU -6.5 for 2 credits
---ASU +3 for 1 credit
---No action on Auburn/'Ville

You ok with ties being a push ? Plus we can allow people to join until next week and still get ten credits.....because there's a good chance that'll put them in the lead.

I'm good with the next week thing. I can verify the PSU line of -6.5 as of last evening. I didn't check this morning. Ties would push......


I just checked and it is -6.

Fprio said the line was -6 for Penn St. So who's line are we using?

The original one he attempted to post. He accidentally put 6.6 so I asked him to clarify....and at the time he picked the games it was PSU -6.5.

I picked PSU too....

It does.. ...at -6.5.

You can cancel if you want in the next couple of minutes since we're working through first week issues.

Fprio, I like your earlier suggestion that we use this as a test week.....maybe get more people involved.

....plus it gives BB a second chance ( even though there was already a second chance offered)

Good idea. I will Tweet about our Site Sponsored contest to draw up more attention. Plus it might pick up more traffic here..... fprio1 is a big hit on Twitter also.
