    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.

    I run one that requires all manual entry and setup.  We pay for software but can fully customize everything.
    Shitton of work to set up and maybe 30 mins per week after.
    Fun and we have passed around who is commish.
    I started in the mid 90s with a USA Today every Monday and Tuesday so this is far easier!

    Feeling like the Niners are going to lose by 500 points.
    Hate it when you head into a playoff matching thinking your favorite team is going to get their shit pushed in.
