You're right. I didn't want to call him out since he's a "michiganhomer"

Also, itg_sports and spburn2 selected a RL/ML along with an Over/Under for the same game.

A $1 bet would pay 'em $160.

For $5? Hang on a sec ...

nothing against the prize. heck its a free contest, anything free is amazing lol.

just saying if you take the time to make up an 8 game parlay. might as well throw 5 bucks on there if you are a online bettor. might as well make a little more on top of that for getting 8 games correct.

C'mon, now. Everybody knows the real purpose of this is to allow me to gather the consensus plays, fade them, parlay them and then make a little money for myself.

I am removing Boston +140 and adding the unders in the Giants game. u6-105 to be within the rules. BTB is this OK? You run your free contests like an Egyptian dictator lol.

My bad. I did it twice too. Guess next time I'll pay attention a little more attention to the rules.
Looks like the yanks are gonna ruin it for me anyways

If anybody has any contest ideas, let me know. Otherwise, you'll be subjected to whatever dumb ideas I come up with.

Survivor Pool For NFL?
Pick 5 contest like Hilton, but we each put in money, but someone would have to hold it lol
