    What about us Sunday Bettors who got cheated?
    Look im really not crying here ....I mean i love this contest and SBR but, Sunday morning i make my picks. The site was down all sunday. Before the games started i sent my picks to Sean Patrick I didnt have any other option. I went 3-1 bb winner GB (bb) w Oakw Wash L Det w. I ddnt get any credit for these picks. What else could i do but send then to SP? Why should my picks not count? I figure the prick lost Monday night which would have given me a nice pay off? Whats the deal guys? I really feel it should count, it wasnt my fault the site was down I did the best i could.

    I believe the prick went 4-0 (this is only from reading posts, I couldn't log in until after the contest week was over), so it really wouldn't have mattered, except for the points.

      Your picks should NOT count because the system was down and you could not enter them. How many threads will you start over this "tragedy" . See my response in your other whining thread.

          Think of it this way. Waiting to the last minute is a trade off, you get the benefit of time, line movements, injury reports, weather reports. On the other hand, you might have to deal with traffic issues, YOU OWN ISP might go down, you might sleep in etc.

          Like anything, if you incorporate the ENTIRE circumstances into your decision making you are the only one responsible for the consequences.

          Just my $.02

            you're not the only one. i was locked out before noon on saturday. couldn't post any picks at all.

            i'm ok with it. you can miss 2 weeks and still qualify for overall record.

              you would have 0 points on the season, and no realistic chance at placing, you lost nothing anyway

                "HELLLOOOO!! McFLYYYY!!??"

                Uhh, the Prick went 4-0 guys, 3-1 gets nothing. So to make you happy, I hereby officially grade your card: you win ZERO DOLLARS sir, you did not beat the Prick.

                good luck next week.

                (Is this getting through to you? You lost. You understand why this thread was misinformed now, right? You thought the Prick lost on MNF, but HE WON AND FINISHED 4-0.)

                  Your a bunch of morons ... the pt im making is why don't we have a back up plan to post whats wrong with that. Ok pound me jump on the a-holes(hhsilver) band wagon but at the time I didn't know prick was 4-0 ...I mean how many times will that happen. I was 3-1 and hoping for a nice pay out if prick missed monday night like he usually does. The reason silver is running his worthless 8===D is he didnt think of sending his picks to some one connected like I did....So I guess I'm sorry your so ^%$^ stupid

                    It is a free contest, and life happens. I was frustrated with barely being able to get my picks in on Sunday (I think I got them in around 12:35pm), but that is the chance I risk by picking late.

                        It is unfortunate that the SBR network was affected by the DDoS attack experienced this past weekend. That is, however, a sad reality of "doing business" on the internet.

                        We apologize for the inconvenience; however, problems like this DO occur and are addressed in the SBR Contests Terms of Service.
