    Any of these pools I've ever participated in a tip is kind of an unwritten expectation for the winner. Now in darwin's situation where the pool manager also won a split of the loot, that does make things a bit different. I'd say tip half of what you would have tipped had he not been part of the winning group.

    Right. If you win something like $1,000.00, you should duke the pool runner.

    Even if the pool runner made the same $1000 that you made?

    Harbaugh fired.  Colossal mistake.  He should have his choice of a handful of jobs.

    Who is going to write out lamar's playbook with crayons now?


    Gotta think the giants have a plane headed out to pick him up for a meeting

    I think it was just time for a change in Baltimore and same with the Steelers and Tomlin.   The story a week or two ago where he was basically done with Lamar probably means he was ready to move on anyway.

    I've always respected John.  Jim is a total douche, as continually reinforced by the gang of criminals and cheaters he assembled at Michigan.

    I've never heard of tipping the FM since everything went online years ago.  Is this really a common thing?

    I have only seen it in pools.  I run a fantasy league and I would try not to accept any tip nor have ever been offered any

    Yeah, I'm talking pools like a survivor pool. Wouldn't tip for fantasy, the interwebs do all the work.
