    New 32 Person Tourney...Rules, Schedule, Bracket
    This tournament will start in 2 weeks.
    1. Each Match up will last 2 weeks and the 2 opponents must choose b/t 25-30 games in that time.
    2. If you fail to choose 25 games, you will lose.
    3. You do not have to choose a game every day.
    4. Best record after 2 weeks is the winner and moves on.
    5. TIEBREAKER--In the Event of a Tiebreaker, the 2 people, will choose every game the next NAB day. They will choose every spread and every O/U. The best record that day moves on.
    6. We're picking only NBA games and only spreads/O/U. No 1st Half bets, No half time bets, no quarter bets, No NCAA, only NBA.
    7. This is NOT for $$$, but you can make bets w/ your opponent.
    8. The final 8 can put down money if they all choose and agree to do so. It's not my responsibility if a match up is for money and one person doesn't pay.
    9. I will make one thread for each match up. Daily, I will post the standings for the two opponents as well as games/lines we are playing from for the day. PLEASE CHECK MY MATH, I CAN MAKE MISTAKES. The thread I make for the 2 people is for the whole 2 weeks, I will not make a new thread every day, only 1 for every match up.
    10/ All games must be chosen before the 1st tip off. If you choose a game after the 1st tip off and post a pick, it must be before that game starts, but after you post your plays for the day, you cannot add or subtract any after the 1st tip off. Also, you cannot EDIT your final plays post.
    11. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS OR ANY EXTRA RULES, ASK.



    32 people = 16 1st round matches.
    16 winners move on to the second round and obv. = 8 matches.
    8 to 4......4 to 2.....2 to WINNER.

    Once you lose, you're out and can now watch. This is strictly for fun. If you want to bet on a match, you must do it b/t your opponent. There's no entree fee for the tourney.

    The main goal is for winning obv. We are all posting picks and handicapping games to win money, this is just for fun and seeing who can do it the best.

    Good Luck and lets DO WORK and have fun.

          sam - as far as the dates, you didnt leave a "tiebreaker" day open after the final day of each round. i would think we should leave that day open for any tiebreakers....if no tiebreaker, then start that day....thoughts?

            maybe end on that friday, b/c friday alsways has a bunch of games and Saturday left open for Tiebreaker, b/c there's only a few games that day??? That could work.

            Good Idea and Thx for the input

              set something official for the lines as well, as im sure someone will complain about an off line. (ie, maybe just get the consensus from here on sbr at noon each day)

              i think we are all covered then. great job setting this up.

                well I'm back in class for college next week, so my schedule will be all over the place, plus out w/ friends and stuff, so probably what I'll do is do all my posts in the morning, so whatever the lines are in the morning like 7-8 AM, will be our lines for the day

                I will be around during the day, but I don't know for how long and stuff....at night I'll most likely be around, but then it's too late, so we'll stick w/ the morning lines

                                                        These odds are not set in stone and may change with pregame issues involved. The odds will change according to constructive trash talk. With that being stated, I am absolutely sure that jaymac's line will increase within the next few days. A good example of constructive trash talk can be heard on Around the Horn. I don't want to hear some of that good old World B. Free trash talk, or Joey Porter type stuff, lol! You guys get ready to bring the wood! As always, gentlemen, good luck!

                                                                LOL I've gotta say, I'm excited to see how this tourney goes. CK as the linemaker is hilarious; makes it fun for us to overcome a spread during the tourney. When I get to the quarter-finals (8 players), I'd definitely be interested in betting at that point.

                                                                vassman's odds to make it to the finals -350? Just kidding, lol
