  • MLB Contest Friday September 25th

    Please post all your plays for Friday as a reply to this post.
    I will allow plays to be posted until the start of the Braves game which starts at 7:10 EST. Also put all your plays together in 1 post if at all possible, and do not edit your original post to add plays to it. If any games you post are PPD. and you want to maintain the max 5 plays I will allow you to post an added play as long as it is posted before the deadline stated. Thanks.

    To make it easier for me to post lines I will be copying and pasting the previous day's post so I don't have to type out all the team names every day. This will mean the games might not be in rotation order, or in order of starting time. I backspace out the previous day's lines so if you see no numbers next to the -/+ there is no line for that game yet.

    Starting today, everybody remaining will have a 2 play minimum EVERY day till the contest is over. If you do not post 2 plays you will be given a -100 for each play you are missing. Every day till Saturday the last place team remaining at the end of the day will be eliminated.

    Inspector Gadget was eliminated after Sunday
    moe green was eliminated after Monday
    blondie was eliminated after Tuesday
    bam33 was eliminated after Wednesday
    North Ender was eliminated after Thursday

    1. No daily minimum for plays. As we near the end of the contest I will impose a daily minimum to keep the leader from sandbagging a large lead.
    2. Max 5 plays a day
    3. All plays will be counted as 1 unit
    4. Winner will be decided by bankroll $$ won not winning %
    5. If you post late (after the 1st night game starts each day), no penalty, your picks just will not count that day. If you miss posting any days, your bankroll will not change. If anyone does not post any plays for 3 straight days they are DQ'd.

              haha you know what coach I do know nothing and back on I think August 21st I was dead last here and expecting to finish there and said as much. I decided to put some thought into it and here's what I did, I decided to play only dogs (alla Mich) so I grouped the dogs, -120 - -130, -130 - -140 etc and used the daily Massey ratings which gives you a % of a chance to win. I then assigned a win % that I would like to see for each group and that's it, lol

                Amazing how sometimes its the easiest things that turn into winners.....regular season NBA takes me about 10 minutes to cap a full slate, and have won money several years in a row now

                      It's amazing how handicapping skills are transferable from one sport to another.

                      I'd love to see you get it done, Tom.

                      Heck, just finishing in the money for any regular season makes you (or anyone) a super handicapper.

                      Good luck.

                        Yes Darryl I know that both of us have had a great run with our simple no think systems in the NBA although this year was mediocre at best for me. But the 3 or 4 years before that wow we cleaned up hitting in the 55 - 57% range with close to 500 picks a year, that's good winning my friend !

                          ‘NBL’ to everyone. Thanks for all the challenges and kudos to everyone who participated. I just luv the rush of competition. I was at a real high just 3 weeks ago and I got onto a major losing streak. Think I just tried too hard and it backfired on me.
                          Again thanks for the experience 👏 with all of you. Well done. 👍 🤞
                          is easy.
