    Thanks to all SBR Team Contestants!
    Thanks to everyone for your tremendous participation. We've seen the Handicapping Contests subforum blow up with quality capping and picks for each team.

    Going forward we might experiment with Team Vs Team bracket Cap-Off's, similar to 128 but for teams. Your feedback has been incredible as well.

    We will have a full leaderboard by this weekend and article recapping the months ups and downs for each team, as well as a mini spot on the SBR front page for the winning team.

    Thanks Crazy, I know this is the biggest pain in the ass to grade. I like the team bracket idea, especially with a fixed number of games just like the individual bracket contests.

      Thanks to CrazyLou, SBR and contest sponsor BetJamaica.

      Brackets are a great idea.

      Imposing a maximum on the number of picks allowed would help make grading easier and introduce more strategy.

                          Correct. The 1st post of every team thread, as well as the sign up post states the following:

                          Each of you must make a minimum 20 picks from now until December 30th.
                          Contest will run from December 1st to December 30th.

                            Nicky I thought it lasted for the entire month.

                            LT its not a pain to grade if you grade it as the contest progresses.

                              is there anyone more happy today at sbr than Crazyl now that this contest is over?? He might even be happier than patty having his 1st winning day in 4 months or richie winning his 1st bet of the month last night..

                              crazyl, i hope you're not going to let me down with the list of each posters final record in units..

                              thanks

                                  Thanks, these games keep starting earlier and earlier.

                                  I put tomorrows lines up too, will just bang out 2 days at a time.

                                    No problem for me. But, some picked the AF/Hou game w/o the line, so no action I'm guessing?

                                        No way Nicky..... hes too lazy to even do team standings hows he gonna do individual standings. Thats like asking Brentcrude to skip breakfast. Impossible.

                                        If u must know I went 61-42 (59%) +14.52

                                        If we lose this contest by less than 10u Im going to Texas to settle the score with this lazy ass. Cause we could have played way more games to catch up.

                                            Nicky,

                                            Aside from each teams overall, I will also include each 96 players overall record.

                                            How's that sound?

                                                  I have never played in any kind of contest except for the one my book I play at offers. Are they a good time? Maybe I will try one out sometime.

                                                      We have like 5 spaces left in our 128 Man Tourney, if you wanted to try that one out. It is a poster head to head capping challenge, you follow your progress with a bracket like in March Madness. You can see who you'd be matched up against.
