    You buy shares with your points. There is another thread for that.

    Two straight bet plays will be made per week by each fund manager on major American sporting events (MLB, NBA/NCAAB, NHL) for a fixed amount of points determined by the total number of shares sold during the IPO. No exotic wagers will be allowed. Bet amounts must equal 2.5% of the total shares sold during the IPO.

    We will also ask the managers to stay away from large moneylines or big longshot plays.

    Why limit to two/week? If they can put in volume then let them.

    Opie, I think you just answered your own question. Your fund would simply be an index on the fortunes of the Dallas teams.

    We have a very limited structured format for Sharps Fund I. This is what you could term a beta run. Let us develop the back end reporting and exchange protocol with a tight, controllable set of rules.

    The goal of the fund is to grow balance..not diminish hence you were not chosen Opie.

    John Pal, I think this needs a Investment sub forum to keep things organized & not flooding Players Talk. I also think this needs a Mod to keep things up to SBR standards.

    Yisman & Tryx3 where great choices. Solid dependable men. .

    But I agree Opie not on the list is a tragedy.

    umm.........because when i saw the list of appointed managers, my (and everyone else's) first thought was "oh. damn, this thing is actually gonna be profitable"

    if i saw you on the list, my (and everyone else's) first thought would've been "what? oh, ok, this is a complete joke. ok whatever"

    if/when they start the SBR -EV Clown Fund you will be insta-short-listed for managerial consideration pal
