Hey, I'm almost 3-for-3 with UNI about to beat the MSU Bears. This is pretty fun! :)

 

I hate you... I got my "over .500" riding on the East All-Stars scoring here.

[Cynosure]

Mr. Kujay thinks he's special with his 3-0-0 =P Just wait, I'm about to start trying!

[CubbieBum]

Just another reason for me to hate the Bulls. I picked them and they go and blow a late lead. I should know better than picking their sorry butts. So much promise two years ago.

There's obviously a reason you're 5-21 right now.

 

Coming in Minnesota was only 2.5 games worse than Chicago. Minnesota was also playing at home, had won 8 of 10 and three weeks ago won by 10 at Chicago.

Yea, after starting 1-2 I started doing research before I chose my picks. If there had been no NHL ASG tonight, I was fully picking Minn and had no shame about it.

Like I said earlier I have no idea what's wrong with me. I couldn't do worse than 5-21 if I tried to. I was better than 50% last month and normally do well picking games.

Oh man, and I thought this was about running naked in public places for money. How disappointed am I.

I'm just full of questions here...as you get higher up in your streak, does it basically limit the number of games you can call to toss-ups?

I don't think your streak really affects anything? I could be wrong though.

[rocket]

well crap, maybe i shouldn't have quit my job and bought a new bmw. i'm not very good at this.

I'm not quite sure what you mean.

 

The Streakmaster picks a certain number of matchups each day. Those matchups are the ones that he feels are the closest things to tossups in that day's action. That's why if a high profile game has one team favored by quite a bit, you will see some sort of prop bet instead on the game that is much more even.

 

But everybody has the same matchups available to them if they are at 0 or 26 wins.

What I meant was, are the games available to be picked different at all for different players? So if someone is at 26, let's say, are there fewer games or tougher picks available for them to make?

Nope. The guy at 26 has the same options to pick from as everyone.

And the Thunder are beating the Nets by 30... there's another loss.

I originally picked New Jersey to win but then I realized that Oklahoma City was the favorite by 1.5 to 3 points. I quickly switched to picking Oklahoma over Oklahoma State.

[Cynosure]

I think I'm going to regret choosing Gordon for the 10:30 slate.

[Cynosure]

LOL Nets outscoring the Thunder 28-8 in the 4th and now down by 8... too little too late.

[kujay]

Looks like the Sooners are gonna win Bedlam and push me to 4-0. Can't say I've really picked any tough ones so far, but I guess you don't get any more points for being daring.

Not so fast my friend.

Wow, yeah that turned out to be pretty close.

[rchap24]

Just started it and had to go with My Boilermakers for my first pick

[Terp]

going with the Flyers tonight and then Bynum. Hopefully that puts my streak at 6.

[Cynosure]

Well I picked the Longhorns and so did streak master Kujay... If it's a win yay for me... if it's a loss then Kujay is no longer perfect :-" :-"

[Cynosure]

Thanks for your luck, Kujay.

 

If any of you choose AGAINST the Blackhawks tomorrow night, I will castrate you.

 

No really... choosing against the Blackhawks will probably be a good idea:

 

The Blackhawks get raped by the trap and the Ducks are almost the best at it. I would encourage everyone to choose the Hawks and watch the game... but you might be bored out of your mind and see a 1-0 final score (oh wait that already happened). So pick your poison... the Hawks might win but you're gonna want to kill yourself with how boring it is.

 

I'm done rambling... play the game and watch it. If you don't like hockey... don't watch it (it won't make you like it anymore thanks to the coward ass trap).

No luck involved, good sir.

 

Just turns out I have a knack for this [expletive].

 

I should have been gambling on sports for years!
