TimmySmith 2,782 Posted September 7, 2017 Done. Been training all summer to get to week 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted September 7, 2017 Thanks and in Hopefully Skids can make it past week one this year. Also, are we gonna do a Pro Football Pick 'em? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted September 7, 2017 Hmm, might be hard to get people in and set for pick 'em in time with tonight's game...unless we decide to start from Week 2. If so, what other settings does everyone want (drop lowest week, confidence vs spread, etc)? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted September 7, 2017 Good point. Last year it was confidence vs spread. I thought that was fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted September 7, 2017 https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem/register/joingroup Group#: 46463 Pass: gfiafp Will start week 2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Strike 3,995 Posted September 7, 2017 https://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/pickem/register/joingroup Group#: 46463 Pass: gfiafp Will start week 2. Are both starting week 2? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted September 7, 2017 Are both starting week 2? Just the pick em (since the survivor pool only locks 5 minutes before each team's game time and thus people can still take any team but NE/KC before Sunday if they join late). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted September 11, 2017 Well that was fun I was watching bits of that game and thought I had picked Houston. Luckily I must have changed my mind and picked the Steelers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Voltaire 4,567 Posted September 11, 2017 That's what your mother said Trebek!!!! Be careful, I win both of these things with great frequently, (although not lately). I'm also the only Geek to ever go all 17 weeks without getting eliminated. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
supermike80 1,288 Posted September 11, 2017 I went like 3-13 but got the Steelers right Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted September 15, 2017 Remember to set your confidence. A couple other people had the Texans covering last night, but I was the only one who actually got points for it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone24 1,814 Posted September 18, 2017 It's confidence AND against the spread??!! Yep I'm out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderHaters Revenge 3,604 Posted September 18, 2017 never done this before, but got 77 so far this week, kinda fun Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted September 18, 2017 Poor cdub. He got almost all correct but didn't set his confidence points. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TommyGavin 790 Posted September 18, 2017 Having a Thursday game turned me off to these pools. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted September 18, 2017 Why? How hard is it to remember to pick a winner Thursday? I think these are fun and I'm prolly gonna win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TommyGavin 790 Posted September 18, 2017 Habit ? For years and years set aside some time in a Friday to do all my research. Fantasy, betting. Don't think of it all week until Friday. I'm hard pressed to set fantasy lineup for Thursday's game. Hate the Thursday game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZeroTolerance 582 Posted September 18, 2017 Having a Thursday game turned me off to these pools. Meh, worst case you set Thursday as your lowest confidence and go about your routine after. You don't have to make all of your picks before the first game of the week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voltaire 4,567 Posted September 19, 2017 Oh, good grief. I didn't realize this was a different variation than the method that we always used previously. I' d gottei so many marked wrong thatI'd gotten right. I just chucked a good twenty+ points. I don't know if my heart is in it but i'll continue to plug in, at least for a while.

Sorry, no one was specific in saying confidence OR spread, just the one person who said confidence AND spread. If people want to start it over with one of those things specifically I have no problem remaking it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fandandy 3,311 Posted October 10, 2017 Well, that was easy. Two years in a row. You guys kinda suck at this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Voltaire 4,567 Posted October 10, 2017 Well, that was easy. Two years in a row. You guys kinda suck at this. i use to feel the same way, was winning both this and pick em routinely. Congrats. The one year, I'd won all 17 games, three weeks of playoffs to include the Baltimore upset of Denver, but lost SF to Baltimore in the Super Bowl. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RaiderHaters Revenge 3,604 Posted October 10, 2017 someone needs to make a move in my direction sadly when I bet against spreads for real money I suck, but here, I am at like 75% 11/14 this week Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fandandy 3,311 Posted October 10, 2017 I'm doing awful in the pick em', that's why I felt compelled to brag of my week 5 victory. If i were a professional gambler I would out of work and hungry. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
