degenerate gambling football league - season 4

  • My first year so I don't know what kind of a pain in the ass it is, but if someone forgets by one, shouldn't they be able to pick the 4pm games? If no picks are made by 4, fuck em.... That's my vote. Idk if that was even in the ballot.

    This is exactly what I think should happen and if not this then all picks by 1pm.

    This is really only fair during the first few weeks of the season

    Which is why I think we should allow the "late" picks during weeks 1-3 just to wake everyone up

    Later in the season, it could be used as an advantage for someone to see the 1pm picks after I post them, and then make 4pm picks and Sunday and Monday night picks based on someone else's selections

    My week 1-3 suggestion is really just so we do not loose anyone early

    Shit does happen, but the lines are mostly out on Friday mornings

    Gimme some feedback and we will settle this by tonite

    Roll with what you like best Eric, you are the one that is doing all of the work.

    So stoked for the season to start --- the college football weekend was awesome, need to have the NFL back in to fill things out.

    Here's hoping the niners make the super bowl again...wont have to travel that far to the game this year!

    We should do a meet up prior to Philly 1 for any attending. I imagine a handful of us are based on location.
    Eric, Pat - you guys coming to the Philly shows at all in Oct?

    It wouldn't be to allow people to pick late

    We would expect all picks in by 1pm Sunday

    It's just to get everyone back in the swing of the new season

    To avoid that problem, wait and post the picks until 4:10. But I'm good with whatever is decided.
    My real opinion is that if you are a serious degenerate gambler, your picks will be in Saturday night!

    Approx 48 hours to go!! Exciting!!

    I like the matchup. So I guess the spread will be posted tomorrow (Wednesday) and if we want to pick this game we have until just before kickoff Thursday night?

    Football's back! Fuck yeah :mrgreen:

    Good luck everyone.

    I wish but it doesn't look like I'm making any of the shows on this tour. Hopefully there's a summer tour.

    Less than 48 hours until kickoff... :mrgreen::mrgreen::mrgreen:

    it is time

    3 payouts

    18x40=720

    1st = 340
    2nd = 150
    3rd = 60

    remember, that leaves 170 in the 6-for-6 pot

    each week $10 goes in, if no one hits all 6 games, it carries over to the next week

    as far as the late picks, the trouble i have is later in the season, letting someone who is late, look at all the picks at 1pm, and then make their late picks


    what if we try this for emergencies, if someone is late, i send everyone's 1pm picks in a group email to all who have made picks

    that way, the late person sees no other picks, and has a limited # of games to pick from


    if not

    we will allow late picks, as an emergency, for the first 4 weeks

    that means if you miss the 1pm, you only get the 4pm and sunday and monday night games

    after that, after 1pm, you would get 0 wins for the week

    let me know
