if u miss a week

They still give u the favorites, so u still get points. I’m sure you’re still in contention.

wow

that’s shocking. so basically picking the favorites is a good strategy everybody!

picking all favorites

will keep you afloat for awhile but you’ll fade pretty quickly. but at least if u forget a week, that doesnt eliminate you from having a chance. so, stop forgetting :)

these are

the last couple weeks i can even play, so i guess i’ll pick and try to get a lead so picking favorites the rest of the way when i’m not around will hold up the lead.

lots of football left :)

I was feeling discouraged there about losing my money. Have a fighting chance now. Anyone does though with 55 pts, give or take a few.

I’ve been unbelievably bad. After the early games last week, I think I had 1 point. I made up some ground later, finishing with 7, but geez. I should start making my picks, then reversing them later.

You’d think 3 point dogs would have a better chance of winning than 6 point dogs, and 7 point dogs would have a better chance of winning than 13 point dogs, but that hasn’t really been the case this year. One of these days…
