I joined.
What\'s a pick\'em league anyway?
-
you just chose the games with the line. They also have an added feature for you to rate the games you are most sure of. If those come in then you get more points.
-
Joined, what do I win!!!
-
I joined. I picked the winners and losers. It says incomplete. Bastard.
BTW, Steelers_Rule! :D
-
I like the confidence points that\'s pretty cool. I\'ve never played like that and thought it would be interesting.

You didn\'t rate your confidence points retard.:gtfo:
-
Forgot my password. Had to create new one...unless I got banned. :p

I screwed up and put my confidence points in reverse order. I think that\'s part of why I\'m lagging behind right now. I also didn\'t take into account the spreads.
Uggh. I\'ll do better next week.
-
it\'s a long season
-
i didnt realize that we are picking against the spread not who wins
-
Yeah, I wish we didn\'t have to fight the spread. It looks like we\'re all getting screwed by it.
-
Bah. Spread is what makes it even.
-
well beacasue of the spread i have 5 incorrect picks and one push
the spread doesnt make it even it just makes it a crap shoot
but dont change it i\'ll just put more thought into next weeks picks
or less depending on how you wanna look at it
-
The purpose of a spread is to create a market for both sides of a wager, so that bookies can offer betting on sporting events that are not competitive. Since we\'re not wagering, and there\'s no sports book taking a commission on our predictive abilities, there\'s no purpose for a spread in this situation. Unless of course, the intent is to make this pick\'em league more annoying and frustrating.
I\'m just pointing out the obvious.
-
Puuswahs....
That\'s why I am using the confidence points. That\'s where it becomes interesting. Confidence points is easy with no line, but the two combined makes it interesting. You have to put the highest points where you think the line is the most incorrect.
I am dropping the lowest two weeks of the season. I raised it from one week to two since GMan fucked up. This gives him one bad week of picks and us two.
-
good..because my cpu is dead and im using my brothers old computer so i didnt get to pick week 2. I brought my good pc for a diagnostic and they said it was the cpu, but had a "....maybe" tone. probably because they probably spoke english as their second language..
-
hey viper,
are you on the wrong thread?
-
nerp. I didnt get to pick my week 2 picks because my computer was dead
btw, why did it say i got the broncos vs bills pick incorrect even though i picked the broncos?
-
this thing is retarded. 3 games this week i picked correctly and it marks me as incorrect
-
haven\'t looked yet, but did they cover the spread?
-
is that how confidence works? i didnt know that dealt with the spread, just thought it was some other separate thing to help calculate points
-

youre not picking winners and losers youre picking against the spread
that pretty much all what this thread has been about
-

I vote to switch off the spreads. Anyone else?
Please post here.
-
Vote all you want. I can\'t change it. Why woud you not want spread? That\'s what makes it interesting. That plus the confidence makes it shweet.
-
I was told you can change it.
