Giants Baby!

dfish (3 months ago)

Good question ???

mike1234 (3 months ago)

I'm assuming that just the game side and total qualify for SB - correct?

steve masters (3 months ago)

okay so i went 2-0 yesterday, im at the top win 500 points. 9-5 total. now that gets scrapped and i'm at 7-5 and don't get my points. whats up with that?

phillip1969 (3 months ago)

No pro bowl ! It was also said in the rules

EaglesPhan36 (4 months ago)

So you this based on action points ... not units won? That's the way it looks in the overall standings. That is really stupid if that is the way. I don't get it.

playersonly69 (4 months ago)

Why is it stupid? Those were the rules for the contest the whole time

EaglesPhan36 (4 months ago)

I didn't pay a ton of attention to the rules - figuring it'd be by units as most SBR contests are, but you got one guy at 13-1 and he's 2nd. That sucks IMO. I mean it's like the BCS. You could have an undefeated guy lose to someone who is 11-5 with more action points. Seems silly to me, but those are the rules.

SBR Lou (4 months ago)

I know people hate to, but ya really gotta read the rules. I mean, you don't have to read more than five words to get to "Scored by Action Points".

EaglesPhan36 (4 months ago)

Understood. I still would have entered and still think it's stupid Lou. :)

yisman (4 months ago)

damn, 10 minimum picks. ah well, wasted 20 points

aceking (4 months ago)

you guys are too good , 7-1 and I win nothing this week .

Carseller4 (4 months ago)

Bubble boy...oh well at least I'm still in the running for Grand Prizes1

secretstash (4 months ago)

nice try carseller

phillip1969 (4 months ago)

When do we make our next picks? Anyone

phillip1969 (4 months ago)

My points should be more also

Bosseman22 (4 months ago)

how does someone go 2-2 and someone go 4-0 and still be tied on action points?

iceminers26 (4 months ago)

opener to closer, line moves

Bosseman22 (4 months ago)

I'm not getting it, there's line moves but losing 2 games means you go negative action points right?

Carseller4 (4 months ago)

Action points are not being graded right...hopefully it will be fixed before games start today.

Bosseman22 (4 months ago)

ok thanks. maybe when they're graded right I can move from 260 to 238

Noles1992 (4 months ago)

They had the action points correct earlier. action points should be graded on what you locked in on. no matter which way the line moves.

Carseller4 (4 months ago)

At 4-0 My Action Points should be +47.5. Talked to Blondie via live message, so hopefully this will be fixed soon.

Noles1992 (4 months ago)

@carseller I went by your # to see if I was adding mine right. I saw that yours would be 20.5 for the Texan game and over and 20.0 for the Saints and over? Let me know if I am not adding this right if you would.

Carseller4 (4 months ago)

Look like they corrected it...my calculation was off.

Noles1992 (4 months ago)

heck, still good picking though!

LAURIN (4 months ago)

In case anyone wonders about the over/under action points, if you bet the over on a total of 38 and the final total is 50, you get 12 action points.
