Ship_itt 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 I had an idea that has been going around for a long time now and thought we could do here. If its been done before or isnt allowed, etc.. let me know and i apologize ahead of time. Anyway its just a simple sheet with each games lines and you pick each team and ship $10 per sheet. Whoever picks the most correct games wins the entire pool of that week. I was thinking everyone sends their picks to me via PM so no one else is able to see them and simply post here that youve shipped. However I would post my picks here minutes before the first game so no one would accuse me of cheating if i won etc..Tie breaker would be Total Points scored in the Monday Night Game. Put that number at the bottom of the sheet. I will tally everything together and will have the winer by the next day, and ship accordingly..gl all let me know any thoughts on this as wellNFL Point Spreads For Week 12 - Week Twelve NFL Football Point Spread - NFL Spreads 11/20 - 11/24, 2008 Date & Time Favorite Spread Underdog 11/23 1:00 ET At Cleveland -3 Houston 11/23 1:00 ET Buffalo -3 At Kansas City 11/23 1:00 ET At Tennessee -5.5 NY Jets 11/23 1:00 ET At Miami -2 New England 11/23 1:00 ET At Dallas -10.5 San Francisco 11/23 1:00 ET Tampa Bay -8.5 At Detroit 11/23 1:00 ET At Baltimore -1.5 Philadelphia 11/23 1:00 ET Chicago -8 At St. Louis 11/23 1:00 ET At Jacksonville -2 Minnesota 11/23 4:15 ET At Atlanta -1.5 Carolina 11/23 4:05 ET At Denver -9 Oakland 11/23 4:15 ET Washington -3.5 At Seattle 11/23 4:15 ET NY Giants -3.5 At Arizona 11/23 8:15 ET At San Diego -2.5 Indianapolis Monday Night Football Point Spread 11/24 8:35 ET At New Orleans -2.5 Green Bay Link to post Share on other sites
UCFrizzo 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 Are you planning on playing against the spread or just picking winners? Link to post Share on other sites
dscoot 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 u should prolly not count the thursday games, for more time to get a larger group in this thing.I would also suggest no pointspread, just winners, once again to make it more enjoyable for the masses, to help get more entries. Could still do total points on monday night for the tiebreak"idea going around for a long time" - wait, u've only been a member since late october - are u the one that lost 500 to some other member in a shady transaction? not sure we should be shipping anything to you, maybe if someone else ran this Link to post Share on other sites

Point spread makes a much wider margin of w/l records. Link to post Share on other sites

Ship_itt 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 I thought picking the winner including the spread but if most people wanted to pick straight up winners i think its a lot easier but whatever gets more people should be more fun... Link to post Share on other sites

dscoot 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Share Posted November 18, 2008 does anyone truly know ship it? My conspiracy theory inside of me is thinking they are attached to canadianpoker, canadianpoker never scammed them, and this now is the REAL scam , and we are sending them money cuz we feel bad about previous scam.how can u run this pool having signed on the forum 26days ago?????????win/loss is harder than u think, there wont be that many ties. plus id only guess around ten entries, and id bet w ten people there is never a tie for first the rest of the season, unless of course all the pickers suck and 10-6 is tied for first Link to post Share on other sites
Ship_itt 0 Posted November 18, 2008 Author Share Posted November 18, 2008 i have rec'd $10 from "ward" along with his picks..if someone else would like to hold the money i am completely fine with that. if you guys have a problem with me theres no reason to bring down my name and my integrity in this thread. jeez Link to post Share on other sites
