4th Annual 2012 NFL PICK EM CONTEST

February 13, 2013 9:35 am

baby and Blitz do a great job of this Pick-Em  and I'm wondering if they have done any research on becoming the Commish and join CBS Pick-Em and that way there is NO work for them.......ie Spreadsheets....having to re-iew picks on Sunday Morning.....and the HUGE Bonus is......
...NO ONE CAN SEE YOUR PICKS UNTIL ONE HOUR BEFORE KICK-OFF.


That doesn't sound like fun to me Larry. I like having the spread sheet and working with it. I think part of the challenge is being able to see what everyone is picking too ... I mean we could you all to pm your picks to me but that would make for a very dull thread wouldn't?

So far the only changes that I favor are having the picks in by a certain day and time, not allowing any changes and not picking the Thursday night games except for opening night and Thanksgiving. I like those the best because they cut my work down considerably but still keep the Contest the same as when LnC and I created it.

What do you all think?

I can only think in English, Spanish and Mandarin. If I try to think in French, my brain starts getting scrambled .

Not really but I know enough words to get by. And I certainly can't read it very well.
How are you feeling these days?
Getting hooked up to the pump as I write. Not looking promising for the weekend.

You are correct......it is kind of boring for you because there is NO work for you......CBS does it all.



I just wanted you to re-view it and see if it is viable ???.......because it would reduce your work load.



And we all know you do a LOT of work and do a GREAT job of this Pick-Em.......along with Blitz.

I favour that Idea for sure..........

baby. Heres a thought.  (') (') <<< rolling eyes

I dont know where you and jalopy are on this new spread sheet. But when you get it, go back to the begining of this last season and simulate it. Enter in all the picks from week one till the end and see how it works. Better to find a problem now (if one exists)  than next October.

Maybe I should go all the way back to 1957 so we can see if the computer would accept a Lions' championship. I will commence work on a protoype spreadsheet in a couple of weeks.

How did you even learn what you know?

Well, in my former life, some of our investors were Chinese and I had the opportunity to travel to Singapore and meet them on occasion. I tried to learn the language so I could tell what they were saying behind my back (in front of me).

 That really suck jalopy.

So far so good. 45 more minutes of poison

Did you have a fun early Valentines?

I'm sworn to secrecy on that one.
