IDK Chi.....I'll see what happens. I think I'm going t make a few plays

[SamsNCharge99]

I decided I'll play some plays....I still have 3 days and I'm down by a little. The best I can do is just keep picking and hope for the best.

I'm not going to sit and let Patty decide the fate of this tourney. By not picking, it's all him to either win it for him or win it for me. I would need him to go 8-7 or worse and most hope for - units. I'm not going to sit back and hope. I'm going to make some picks and WIN THIS THING.

Good Luck Patty. It's been a good contest and now it's closer than ever,

C. White Sox -145
Boston Red Sox -146
St. Louis -186

3-0 BABY...feeling good.

All lines from 5 Dimes

OK Patty has 65 games played....there are only 2 more contest days left. These rules were made on Day 1, haven't changed, so don't hate the delivery boy, I'm just dishing out the rules.

Patty currently has 65 plays, needs at least 80. Only 5 plays maximum a day, meaning the most he can get is 75 plays.

There is a -1.25 units penalty for all plays under the 80. So, since he is already losing 5 plays, that equal -6 units penalty.

I'm going to add the penalty in now so he knows what he needs. Instead of doing the penalty at the end...do it now, so we both know what the other needs to win.

So,
Results
Sammy 1-2 -1.91 units
Patty 0-0 -6 units
