Re: remind me to never put money on Sparty again
They were kinda my "can't miss" game in the Pick'Em...
And they were just about as good as all my other picks... taking a beating.

Re: remind me to never put money on Sparty again
Dins, you ever do this...
So, I do my Pick 'Em picks. The way I do 'em is I just go through the list, and I make all the picks I like. When I'm done, sometimes I have fewer than the minimum ten picks. That's what happened last week. I had seven picks, and I had to scramble to find three more.
Other times, like this week, I ended up with too many. I had fourteen. I had to start pruning.
Which ones should I keep? Which ones should I ditch?
Three of the four I ditched ended up being winners: UCLA, Fresno St and Florida. Stanford was the one I ditched who went on to lose.
The ones I kept were ND and N. Carolina.
:doh:
How would you like to have picked Texas the first two weeks? Last week they were -40 1/2, IIRC, and they won by 39. This week they were -33 1/2, and they won by 31.
Eeeash.

Well, them and KState.
If you open the Pick'Em thread and suddenly detect a foul odor... don't worry about it, it's just my picks.

I almost took OSU and the points tonight, and I did take SJ St and the points last week.
Sorta guarantees you at least one type of win.

I get it, my team sucks. Did we really need two threads on this? Jaysus, talk about kicking a man when he's down...
Re: remind me to never put money on Sparty again
I do the exact same thing and the same thing happened to me this week. I ended up pruning that FLA game and KAN..keeping MSU and NCU. Pretty rough start to the year.Van wrote:Dins, you ever do this...
