Brick backs down to 57% challenge

**raiders72001** · 11-14-05, 04:46 PM

1. No editing. Edited plays count as a loss.
2. No past posting
3. If you list the wrong spread we will use the correct spread.
ex. Tenn - 7. Since it should be Tenn +7 the play would be Tenn.
4. 100 picks over a 4 week period which is a little over 3/day.
5.Ties do not count as a play.
6. You must win 57 games to win the contest.
7. Only sides, no totals. Only lines of -107 or greater.
8 . You can use any book up top except BoDog
9. If a new book is added by SBR during the contest you can't use that book.

thats not fair raiders. brick should be able to use bodog lines if he chooses.

**raiders72001** · 11-14-05, 05:06 PM

You have to be kidding me. If he uses the BoDog line that I get then he can use it but not the posted one. It's just easier to cancel BoDog. He has more than enough books to choose from.

This part about -107 doesn't make sense, -110 or less? The thing with bodog is if you bet those lines they will take them away from you in reality so it is kind of not fair.

**raiders72001** · 11-14-05, 05:09 PM

Thanks rm. -110 or less.

raiders, you know that bodog lines are always higher than anyone elses on that list, if your betting dogs. i feel they should be allowed but, thats up to you and brick to decide.

**sergfro** · 11-14-05, 05:27 PM

100 picks in 4 weeks?!? wow.......no way in hell you hit 57% with 100 picks within 4 weeks..not enough decent games to wager on

**sergfro** · 11-14-05, 05:28 PM

But I hope you do it and prove me wrong so I look like a jackass

**sergfro** · 11-14-05, 05:40 PM

Brick, which island are you going to?? I go every year.....get a good price?

**Brick Tamland** · 11-15-05, 12:49 AM

1. No editing. Edited plays count as a loss.
ok

2. No past posting
Ok so I will not bet on the 2004 games as I planned.

3. If you list the wrong spread we will use the correct spread.
ex. Tenn - 7. Since it should be Tenn +7 the play would be Tenn.
ok

4. 100 picks over a 4 week period which is a little over 3/day.
WTF is this? Thats almost 4 plays a day. If ties dont count Ill end up having to put in 4 plays a day.
I dont play this many normaly. I'll give 100 plays over 75 days.

5.Ties do not count as a play.
ok

6. You must win 57 games to win the contest.
hence 57%??

7. Only sides, no totals.
Since when does a total not count as a straight play? Maybe you should change your statement to "no on this board can hit 57% playing sides"? Totals count or no game. Ive already said I bet totals. You trying to back out Gaidars?

Only lines of -107 or greater.
ok so I can bet -130 games? Please rephrase.

8 . You can use any book up top except BoDog
ok

9. If a new book is added by SBR during the contest you can't use that book.
ok

Not sure. My buddies are taking me for a charity trip because of the divorce. Any recomendations?

**raiders72001** · 11-15-05, 02:19 AM

Brick,

Totals are fine. -107 is greater than -130. -105 is greater than -107. I'll give you math lessons after the contest.

Gaidars

**bigboydan** · 11-15-05, 02:24 AM

Since he thinks that no-one here can possibly hit 57% here, why he's restricting you to so few books is very odd indeed.

**Brick Tamland** · 11-16-05, 04:50 PM

Hes afraid of me.

He's bottling it. He's putting so many dumb conditions on this challenge that only a fool would accept it. Then when you refuse he can just say "Brick backed down after all".

**Quarm** · 11-16-05, 05:58 PM

Brick IS a fool if he is taking the challenge :-P
I mean, who gives any shit about what raiders says? He is offering arm wrestling for 500 bucks too...^^

**raiders72001** · 11-16-05, 07:05 PM

Brick- Lets go. Rules are in place. 2-1 odds. Are you ready or are you going to keep coming up with excuses? I think you are all talk.

There's a bunch of clowns in this thread. If you think the rules are to strict then I'll take the exact same bet under the same rules and show you how to hit 57%.

I thought it was going to be 5 to 2? Maybe I misread something in light of all the interesting conversation we have here.

**Brick Tamland** · 11-16-05, 07:29 PM

Did we address the 4 games a night issue? you agree to 75 days?
