How 'bout a "Suicide" N.F.L. Pool this Season ...


Basic format ...


Pick 1 team to WIN straight up each week.


Once you've selected a particular team, eg. NY Giants ...


You may not select them again; for the remainder of the season.


As soon as you Lose your 1st pick...you're eliminated!


This procedure is carried out each week, until there is

only 1 participant remaining.


If 2 or more 'cappers are tied in Week 17,they can now


divide the Winnings,have a Post-Season TieBreaker,etc.


Just a suggestion.

The quick scoring and line moves is what people pay Don Best for so I don't see that just popping up here on a free forum even though the new venture that is launching soon is promoting that through Don Best. The PM idea is pretty standard on forums and should be available so the biggest thing will be just to keep some interest in a name brand site that won't have it's original core anymore while new competition is generating interest.

Contests, promotions and Book bonuses only go so far and mainly target smaller bettors so the poster strength insight and knowledge is what keeps people coming around and if that drops off with the new landscape developing for these sites then there's not much you can do to generate fresh interest on an established name brand only product.

setting up a consensus report on about 10 of the major
sportsbooks online. See where the public money is going and how the
line is moving and such.

I go all over the net to try to get some of this....THIS WOULD BE BIG!!!!!

Another vote for PM. It works great at other sites.


This was brought up to The General before all Hell broke loose: Make a thread or whatever for essential links. Links for live lines, Neteller, weather, vegas sites, ESPN, whatever. This can greatly help the uninformed.

Stop giving bashers a long leash.



They need to be on choke collars. Clean these people out of the site and it would be a 100% better. Two examples. . . Henhouse and Alan Palmer. How are these guys not banned? Thats ridiculous that they arent


Also. . Allow no ghosts. A person can overstay thier welcome under one name and are just able to go create a new one and start over. Alan Palmer = thetrucker

Kruser, Hen & AP are actually both banned-and have had a few of their ghosts "intercepted".

:103631605 TTinco. . .You can feel free to delete my post. Thanks for taking care of those clowns!


However, I still feel like it was allowed to go on for way to long. Atleast you guys made the correct move.



A up to date line service would be the biggest suggestion. Also a consensus report would also make a lot of sense.

Naw, let's leave it up in case anyone else was not aware of it. It probably did go on longer than it should have, but censorship & bannings have their drawbacks. It's a fine line of fairness that we try to straddle, but enough was enough & the decision was made.

PMs an obvious choice, although they do have their drawbacks.

To those of you saying 'line service' I like to think of myself as very well educated in the matter. I have tracked the work Lander has done, and I can 100% honestly say that those lines on the Live Lines section are very fast and accurate! For anyone not needing a complete service and can deal with the refresh, I dont think it can be beat. It is #1 in its class for sure.

A congrats to the 2 new mods are in order too. I dont know how much you have had to do with it, but this forum is definitely getting better and better. The atmosphere around here has been great lately.

How about giving the posters that post there picks in the Tracker forum the ability to change the title of there thread daily to reflect there YTD Records? It would make things so much easier for the viewers.

This site is headed in the right direction. I love the new mods. This place will not skip a beat come August 1st.
