    Just some rules to make it easier on everyone. Obvious to some, to some maybe not. All selections will be 1 unit unless otherwise noted. Favorites will risk units to win one unit. Underdogs will risk one unit to greater than one unit.

    I will update the running unit count as often as reasonably possible.

    We do not chase, hype or whine. We do not play everyday.

    Being a follower of The Contrarian entitles you to an opposing point of view, so have at it.

    Laddered the Royals in the futures to win Division, Pennant, and World Series on a flyer for huge odds.

    You know the routine....

    Make plays for a month, lose more than win, then quit.

    Rinse and repeat each year.
