I was surprised to read some people wanted the prize money spread out more. I think it should be the opposite. When contests get thinned out like that its like a participation award for youth soccer leagues.

1st- 80%
2nd - 20%
3rd - you get your entry fee back

Bam! Now thats a contest

that would be a guaranteed way to shrink the field IMO.....would be a contest with very few people over time....paying top 50 is less than 3% of folks cashing if they get to 1700. it is hard to see how that could be too high and/or discourage people from joining. to grow it (and the pot for the winner) you need more folks to join who arent heavy sports bettors and while most non-serious bettors may be able to convince themselves that they have a shot at top 30 or 50 you would lose a ton of entries with a top 2 or 3 concept

Why should I choose to go with you as a proxy over sharky99?

Its up to you who you choose and I have no hard feelings either way.

But, here is what I offer.

I live 2 minutes away, traffic and parking will never be an issue for me.
Plays have to be in my 9am, but I don't start putting them in till 10am... you will have my personal cell # to call and change a play at the last moment (I give the latest "due" time of all proxy's)
I cap my Proxy Service at 50 entries. This way there is very, very little room for error. I deal with QUALITY and not QUANTITY
Im easily reachable by phone, text or email with any questions.
And I love doing it, and I have met quite a few great people and still talk to them frequently about football year round.

So, like I said, no hard feelings at all who you choose, but that's what I offer besides just getting your plays in.

I disagree. I think the larger prize would draw more people in. There is something to be said for going after a big fat purse.

The Trend is your friend, it's true in handicapping..and proxying!

Your boy Elroy is always on the case..except when someone suggests that he grab some Vandy Under 3.5 and 3 while he still can.

Yep was a guy at the buzzer literally... maybe a minute after I posted, a guy hustles up to the counter to get his entry in. Why wait till the very last minute when you have had over 2 months to enter.... Crazy!
