Awesome, thanks for the heads up. When I checked earlier, it acted like there was 5 games, and the Confidence point options were like 16, 12.4, 9.8, 6.2 and 3.4.

A 71 point lead is going to be really difficult to lose, penis.



Id rather not tempt fate. Points or not, I am really happy with my record against the spread. If i do it again next year, I may actually gamble money.

I'm really happy with my record against the spread, too. Anything over .500 when Vegas is involved is a success.


yep. It probably would have been better had I understood the rules. I was making my picks really early ever week trying to take advantage of the early spreads. :|

No, i would have done better. There were games that were "off" when I picked them, that ended up with 10-12 pt spreads that would have changed my pick- for the better.

For the record, "off," means it's off the board in Vegas, and they aren't accepting any bets. Usually has to do with a key players status being unknown, or something similar.

In. I can sell a dad convention a lot easier than an extravaganza.

Yes, because a bunch of married dads with no social life to speak of anymore are far more likely to behave when alcohol and strippers are introduced into the equation.

It's been a really long time since I've been to a strip club.
