how many of you want me to host gay vs straight capping contest?

[pico]

similar format as my style capping contest, but with no style points...just straight up capping with 2 picks max per day.

thinking about having two teams with each team consist of two best cappers picked by consensus. two gay guys make two picks per day vs two straight guys making two picks per day. thinking about doing 40 picks over 4 weeks. i'll grade them.

no prize...just bragging rights.

if you guys are interested, i'll draft out set of rules.

setting up the contest is easy,finding 2 straight guys may be your biggest obstacle.

I'm really pro-action-point grading. I think it's the most accurate test of handicapping ability. What do you think about that pico?

we'll that is true. but 2 picks 40 plays is my contest style...since i am doing all the work, i like it my way.

i also has the 1 hr before the tip-off rule. there will be no style points, but i like to have all the penalties like repeated picks and 1 hr before the game rule.

Rather than using units you use action points, just like the format in the bowl contest. It's a combination of units and style, all together in one.

BTW, in your contest, if the lines aren't up in the SBR Odds can we take lines from the 128 man contest and use those?

I had two winners in the 128 man contest but I couldn't use them for yours because those lines weren't listed in the SBR Odds.

as long as it is up on pinnacle, you can use it. some people post picks couple days ahead. it is not that strict...as long as you didn't put up obvious made up lines.

Pico, I would participate in it. I'm trying to think of another gay guy I could get to join to make picks too, but all of my friends suck worse than me (no pun intended). Let me call up a couple old friends from Washington State who actually make good money picking games (and horses, they practically own Emerald Downs) and see if one of them will team up with me. Awesome suggestion, dude, this could end up being hilarious, especially if the winners pick the losers avatars for a month.

[Casperwaits]

Rogue, I don't care if you had a contest between Isralis and Palestinians..Anything you put together, I am on!!!

[daggerkobe]

Terrible idea.

Gays are only good at fashion and ice skating.

[Chi_archie]

there is another bi-sexual guy here, but I can't think of his name... if anyone else knows match him up with Rogue for the contest.... and then pit them against any obvious choices..

maybe pimike and pavy..

[Willie Bee]

Yes, the social benefit to such a contest would be huge. Would the losing team have to 'switch sides' for a week or something like that?

[pavyracer]

If SBR throws in a $1000 prize I would take on any homo.

[Casperwaits]

What if you are a born again Virgin with asexual tendencies? (not saying...I'm just saying).

[Teela]

Define "take on"

If SBR throws me a Xmas fruitcake and Magnum PI the first season on BluRay, I'll take on JJ's hot aunt!!!

oh my....



but obvious prize, aside from the green stuff, could be sporting an avatar of the winners' choice for a month.... taking a leave of absence for a month

[pavyracer]

Define "take on"

face in a capping contest. read the thread title Teela.

I just wanted to clarify since it followed right after Willie's "switching sides" comment. No disrespect meant.

Battle of the sexes:

Team Homo (Rogue & 5Teamer) +140
vs

Team Hetero stiffs (Dacbietviet & patty) -170


No repeat of Billy Jean King upset over Bobby Riggs.

[RogueScholar]

Dagger, that'd be hilarious! Plus, being on a team with FiveTeamer would totally make me giddy.

Is it fair for the gay guys to only make Straight wagers? Or can the bi-guys do round robins?

[pico]

here is what i have in mind:

NCAA BB, NBA, NHL, and major division soccer (premier league for each county [EPL, La Lega etc]) ml, spread (asiain handicap for soccer is okay, so is puckline for nhl), and total. 1st half and full time (OT included for NHL) bets.

in order to avoid disputes, just make screen shoot of pinnacle lines. here is an example for soccer total pick
