Plays from the Daily Lines thread MUST be used. Do not make a single pick in here until the Daily Lines thread is posted later on tonight.

Round 2 will run from Tuesday to Monday.

Round 3 and beyond will run from Wednesdays to Mondays to include the entire football weekend and cap it off with Monday Night Football, and also to give those interested in the other sports before the weekend to get those plays in.

• You must make 7 plays for Round 2. If you make less than 7 plays, one unit will be subtracted from your record for every missing pick.
• We are ONLY allowing side/total correlated bets. Quite simply, what this means is you may ONLY pick i.e. (Cowboys -3, over 46). You cannot include halves, quarters, or anything other than full game, full total.
• There is no max on plays per day. You can make all 7 in a day if you so choose.
• You may NOT select the same game as your opponent. You may however select the opposite side , i.e. "fading them".
• Favorites will be graded to win one unit, while dogs will be risking 1 unit.
• ALL picks must be used from the daily lines thread. A unit one penalty and disregarding of play will be enforced if you use outside lines or if you past post.

oakas, I have asked for an appeal on the CrazyL ruling. I won fair and square despite the fact that the CFL game wasnt posted on thursday so I coudnt bet it.

I realize my one game was a day late, but it was posted in the available lines.

Anyway, whatever happens, happens, but honestly, if I were you I would concede the spot considering you did lose fair and square on the numbers, and all 7 of my plays were in by the 5th day.

It was an error on the contest moderators part to include that game in the list if it should not have been there (IMO)

no hard feelings, I know you are a great guy, but this is my opinion.

Well BJ, you know what the whole kicker is to this is that I would have played the UNDER in the Kentucky/Louisville game, but knew it was a Sunday game. That UNDER play was a big play for me last week.

They way I see it, whatever posted lines are up, that's the lines that should be allowed to play. It's not the players fault for taking lines that are up, if they shouldn't be there, the blame the people running the show, but to kick someone out for legitimately making a pick that was available for selection is an absolute farce.

BlackJack should be through.

[diogee]

It can be hard to exclude games that are to be played on a separate date when listing odds since there is no sort of divider by date and if you aren't looking for the date then it is very easy to miss. I don't have time to sort this out right now but if you have a problem I'm sure Crazyl would not mind you pm'ing him and discussing his ruling on this. I am going to add this type of situation into the rules for now on.

Nyy/Tam under 9.5 -105

Fair point, in the future this won't reoccur, but we can't apply anything retroactively. Only 2 posters out of 128 posted the games beyond the deadline, so I didn't think there was so much an issue with the rule clarity itself.

Back to back nights a ninth inning multi run homer by the Yanks sinks the under.

That is 7 picks for the week.

Good luck dio.

[diogee]

Best of luck oakas...I'm waiting until tomorrow to finish up.

[diogee]

Looks like I am going to need 3-1 since no + money plays are available on Stl or Cin spreads.

[diogee]

No choice but to use the best listed spread...need to go 3-1 or 2-1-1. All early games and chose Texans instead of Saints. Should be an interesting day.

Lions -2.5 -143
Texans +7.5 -133
Rams +9 -120
Bengals pk -125

[diogee]

Picked up a couple of complete duds...best of luck for the rest of the tourney Oakas.

[oakas]

Thanks dio. I really appreciate it.
