To anyone thinking they MIGHT already be out of it ...

I was one of the fools on Day 1 who thought I could make ANY 4 picks from the available sports & as such, when I showed up to pick all NBA from the evening card, I was rudely awakened to the fact that I was limited to 1 play in each sport. All that was left for me in addition to the NBA, was 2 late NHL plays (which I didn't like), so I forced a guess (lost) & finished the day with 1 win ... 3,600th PLACE!!! From that point on, I never went on an unreal 12-0 run or anything like. In fact, I only managed one 4-0 day this entire first week. I just strung together a few 3-1 days & even had a 2-2 day as well & at the end of Week 1, I still managed to rally from 3,600th place all the way back to 73rd & just 3 wins in back of first. I'm still not in the prize picture, but it only took 6 days to go from catastrophic to right back in the thick of things. It's still way too early to be procaliming 18-1 starts the favorite to win or for someone 3000 spots back to be giving up. Trust me, I know this firsthand, so hang in there & best of luck to everyone the rest of the way!

||an_clap.gif' border=0> Thanks Wes! Sounds good to me! Plus, you said what I have been thinking all along. That it is still relatively early in this whole thing and that there is still time for a lot of movement in the rankings. You have reinforced my hope! ||reallyhappy.gif' border=0> Good luck to you too! ||clover.gif' border=0>

i also started out 1-3 and now im on the front page 2 behind!

At this point, everyone has a shot at first place. Cheers, Ponch ||peace.gif' border=0>

5,777 participants to date. Hmmmmmmm..7-7-7. Off to Foxwoods.

I started off in first place. With a 0-0 record. Now I need some 4-0 days. BAD!!!

I am 13-14-1 I know if I was to place a bet on my chances of winning this RACE, I'd bet OVER! Trust me, this race is over for me. NBA 6-1-0 MLB 0-6-1 NHL 3-4-0 NCAAB 3-3-0 Arena 1-0-0 Not being negative, just keeping it real for myself. GL 2 E-1 O6

OH NO, 06! You are only NINE (9) away from $5,000! The leaders can't miss one in 18 Days to be in the final push. Possible but not probable. You on the other hand should get busy and get tomorrows schedules and do yur computing today then get the odds when they post, rethink and be ready. Take one at a time and check injuries, home court or field and don't forget to see who they beat, not just the scores! Now, Who do I think I am anyway? I'm your worst enemy. I'm the one ahead of you with 14 Wins. So don't give me this REAL stuff- IT AIN"T OVER TILL ITS OVER!!!! ||an_wink.gif' border=0>

LOL LAZYBOY Well, now that you break the numbers down that way, I do have a chance. Still not liking my odds though. I would need 3 back-to-back-to-back days of 4 - 0 wagering. OH well, damn the torpdeodes ||an_cannon.gif' border=0> Tnx & GL 2 U 2 LAZYBOY ! O6

You guys have no chance, just quit. Gives me better chance lol.

your already done if you have a record like mine 5 games under, trying to catch someone 17 games on the plus side. 22 game swing with 70 something games left. That is not going to happen.

O 6 You're getting killed with Exhib.BB thats all If you were 3-3 and not 0-6 you would be in the hunt at least,I got to give hope to a 16-11 because thats the boat i'm in.You must really have the eye of the moush to be 0 fer BB.Baseball is the only thing thats clicked for me.Take the biggest home fav on the page and hope it don't rain.

I've got the National Weather Bureau on Speed-dial and then I go and try to THINK. I shouda stuck with Detroit!!. Cincy,LAD and Clev were doing so well! Except yesterday with LAD. I really need to wait till I can see who's pitching I hope I'm better with Fantasy Baseball. I've got Boston+6, Pitts for Hockey and Airforce by 6. Anyone with?

Haha my picks for the day Are Boston +6, Also Pitts for Hockey, I took Detroit, and I also took the over of the Syracuse game although I wish I woudla done Kansas STate to cover. Owell. So far 3-0 lol I hate starting late.

Ok so on Day 1 you went 1-3 leaving you 3 games back of first. After one full week you are still 3 games back of first. Want a cookie? ||reallyhappy.gif' border=0>

I think I'll need a stiff drink after tonight; just to get up the guts to try again. I felt great on day 1 of the race= 4-0. Since then it's been downhill just when I thought I got the hang of 'capping.

I have 17 W's right now! Think i got a chance?? I lost the CWS in baseball today, im pissed, they blew the game!!! I got K. State to cover, Over in the Sac/Atlanta NBA game (200) and the over in the rangers/pitt game what do ya think of those 3 picks? ||thumbs_up.gif' border=0>??? ||thumbs_down.gif' border=0>???

Hey 666LES Yeah that friggin' exhibition MLB has me totally stumped. Couple of times i check the starting pitchers (not that it matters, most starters get 2 innings or they are on a pitch count). I got so fucking frustrated with exhibition MLB, I close my eyes, randomly select a team, and I still get royally FUCKED! I'm out of it. GL 2 E-1 else!!! O6

yeh exhibition bball is awful, although the leader is 7-0

I'm out, can't even pick my nose. However, I will continue to try.||an_burningbag.gif' border=0>

7-0 is bullshit, they must be picking these from thier ass

22 wins & nm in 189 missed a couple of days could end up killing me

I just joined 3 days ago & already have 12 wins (4-0 x 3)...Won't keep up that pace, but don't think I'm out of it either.||moneybag.gif' border=0>

Scarp 71! GOOD GRIEF!!!! I'VE HAD ONLY ONE 4-0 DAY OUT OF NINE!!! I don't think I'm out of it either. 17 Wins is only 10 behind the lead. ||cool.gif' border=0> I can only hope you trip on a shoestring running to the computer....! I'm Bad...||an_shake.gif' border=0> Lots of Luck and Welcome aboard! ||clover.gif' border=0>||Peace_5.gif' border=0>
