    Error in the sbr nfl bracket contest

    http://contests.sportsbookreview.com/256-nfl...-tourney-2687/

    Nobody else has the guts to say a word

    Lets See Who The Real NFL Football Pickers Are
    Only 25 Points To Join This Bracket Contest
    Pick It To Win It
    Will Start If Filled On
    Sep. 8 , 2011


    You see that key word? September 8th

    Half the field didn't put in any picks this past weekend for a reason


    Posted by big daddy

    come on guys their will be 6400 points up for grabs IF i can get the 256 players in this bracket contest ....
    come on guys get in >>> this contest starts at the start of the very first game of NFL .....


    Also no thread saying the contest has started. The only people that put picks in this past weekend would be the ones in other contests that clicked the contest to look at their bracket and see if they could make early picks.

    Some panicked and saw people were putting in picks and that it already started with ncaa games.

    Now nobody in that contest has any guts or balls to say a word in a sbr thread about it.


    The contest should be started over and start on september 8th with the ncaa and nfl games just like the thread says.

    I like big daddy and just asking him to do whats right and not screw all the people that intended to log in thursday to make their 1st round selections.

    points should be returned to those who lost the first round by failing to make picks. that's my honest opinion and i went 8-7 +2.10 units to advance so i am not a crying loser. not yet anyway.

    For once I agree with tt warrior. It is BS that it started before it said it would, contest should be restarted or points returned to everyone.

    I don't think it should be overlooked by sbr, I feel cheated as well. I looked last night and noticed I had until tuesday to make 15 picks so I picked sides and totals for the only 20 or so games that were left. Contest should have started on sept 8th and not have the 1st round end sept 6th like they have it set up to do. Total BS

    Has anyone said why it started on September 1st instead of September 8th ? It appears most of the people in the brackets were not informed of the start date. Weird way to run a contest.

    Bigtime fail.

    No, the only talk I saw on the contest board were people saying "oh well its your fault you should have checked in on it"
    bull sh!t if the contest supposed to start on 8th, the 1st round should not be ending on the 6th. bigdaddyjames fukked up big time on this. It should be made right!

    so to be clear.....new one will be NFL only or NFL/CFB combined? I have no problem with combo with 15 plays, as that may be too many plays for NFL only

    The contest has been canceled per the commissioner's request. The 25pt entry fees have been refunded.
