Degenerates...what do you think about the overs in games with replacement refs?? They are calling a ton of pass interference..they arent calling holding, illegal blocks, etc..I think this leads to more scoring..What do you think?

I think the regular officials make plenty of bad calls too and the whole thing is getting blown out of proportion.

I think scoring is up in general for many reasons, not sure that the replacement refs have much to do with it though. There were plenty of blown calls even with the regular refs.

And for the payout, I'll vote for winner takes all too even though that probably means I have no chance at the money now

Until I can go better than 1-5 in this format vs. the spread my opinions on over/under are useless!

Seriously, I think the officiating is overblown and week 1 typically sees a bunch of shit calls. I expect week 2 to be better officiated.

I'd go with 1st and 2nd with 1st getting $203 plus the leftover 6 for 6 pool and 2nd getting $50. Or have 2nd get $40, essentially his entry fee back.

I'd also go with 2nd place getting his entry fee back, but I would add a stipulation. The person who comes in 2nd place only gets $40.00 if it's close. But if 1st place wins by, say, 3 games or more, then 2nd place gets nothing.

Just an idea I'm throwing out there!

For this pick em contest or the current line? For the picks tonight it's GB -6.5 but right now looking online it looks like it's GB -5.

From what I remember, we go by covers.com

Edit: -6.5 Packers, back on page 3. Didn't see it, sorry!

I see -5 on covers.com, so if that's right I guess it's -5.5

But I'm pretty sure how it works is that you use the line that was posted in this thread, not the current line.
