M-Borg vs. THE Flavortown U Thread, Orig. by Buckeye Paul, absconded w/by talent.

[Optimus Prime]

Several slick features no doubt, I finished 4th from last I highly doubt anyone was copying my picks. Took some early risks that didn't payoff, spent the last half of the season "swinging for the fences"...this year a little different approach is in order. I really appreciate the email confirmation of picks, ammendments etc.

Yah you finished well.

[iam416]

Yeah, the other players' picks aren't revealed until after the deadline.

There is also a nice autopick feature which is a nice safety net in case you forget to make your picks. And, in OP's case, it should have probably been a first option.

[Optimus Prime]

You have the option of selecting "all favorites", "all dogs", "opposite your picks" etc.

I'll take that under advisement Talent, let's hope that now that Tressel is looking for work, he doesn't end up as your Pool Administrator with backend access. If so, a "Columbus Trifecta" is likely.

[SeanB]

Talent, I'm in. Sounds like a lot of fun. How do I go about getting signed up, paying, etc? Do we need to exchange emails or just do it here through the forum?

[iam416]

Send me a message on the forums with your e-mail. I'll include in my first e-mail to the pool contestants and you'll be able to go from there. We'll worry about payment in due course, though I take Paypal and check.

[DennisT]

Irony or comedy or serendipity that this has turned into the gambling thread?

[WingsFan]

Yah you finished well.

Yea, then I played the Bowls pick em and had terrible luck, in the end wound up even. Not bad though to play all season and be even.

[Optimus Prime]

Entropy, too appropriate, where can U buy them?

Yeah Packy, I think i was 300 points off the lead that meant I'd need near perfect selections over the last 4 weeks and the leader board had to go average, over the balance of the season, couldn't bridge the gap...should have run with the Bowl segment but then the Holidays hit.

So Far it looks like from the Michigan Forum:

Note to ESPN: You have a show called "Blueprint for Change" which fetures Nick Saban. If you want to change college sports, get rid of people like Nick Saban!!!

[WM Wolverine]

They had to choose someone from the SEC.
