What will happen if you picked Houston/Baltimore game?

JinnRikki · Sep 15, 2008

If I could make a suggestion Mac, could you put a post icon on these threads (the green arrow is a good one) so they can be easily identified after they get off the front page. It helps very much when looking for them, thanks.

Hiya, Mac. Not sure if anyone else has expressed this, but I don't like having the Lock of the Week be worth twice as many points as the other 3 plays. After all, you really never have one pick that is going to cover twice as often as your 2nd, 3rd, and 4th best plays of the week, so it's really just introducing some luck variance based on whether you hit that one play or not. I was thinking this, and then I went 3-1 missing only my LOTW this past week, so I was compelled to bring it up. Maybe you could make the LOTW be worth 1.2 points, but nothing wrong with flat winners and loser. Thanks for your efforts,

I'm starting to think the Repub's picked that hockey mom just so they could leak out stuff about her, bashing her livelihood, to make Obama look like a hypocrite. I don't think it will work, but you can't blame them for trying some freakish tactic in a race they were looking really bad in.

Please, no more repubs....

Jetplane · Sep 16, 2008

I'm a republican... shhhhhh >

Thanks SP2. How'd you do on your plays?

I went 3-1 hitting LOTW
