    • Overall Prize-Pool: $25,000 distributed to the Top 25
    • Weekly Prize-Pool: 10,000 free play points to those who beat the Bag


    Note that unlike Beat the Prick, which will be announced at a later date, this is an NFL ONLY contest and The Bag is a totally different character that will be introduced at some point today.



    How to Join Beat The Bag
    Enter your SBR username and click join on the contest enrollment page. If you do not already have an SBR username, create one here).

    When does the contest start?
    Opens: Tuesday, September 5, 2017

    How to play Beat The Bag

    • The object of the game is to compete against "The Bag" weekly by trying to finish ahead of him in the weekly standings. This contest contains NFL spreads and totals only.

    • You must make 5 plays each week to be eligible for that week's free play prize, and you must have made 70 total plays (equivalent of 14 weeks) to be eligible for the $25,000 in season-end cash prizes.

    • You must make one 3-unit best bet each week. All other plays will be based on one unit.

    • You must beat The Bag and have + units for the week to win. If The Bag scores +3.00 in a given week and you score +3.01 you will have beaten The Bag. Even if The Bag goes 5-0, +7.00 that week, you can beat him by going 5-0., +7.01! Again, players must have a positive score to earn prizes and it is also possible to have common plays as The Bag as his selections do not come off the board.

    How will prizes be paid?

    As I said in the other thread - fantastic, SBR does indeed rule. I do wish the three unit pick didn't exist since as I noted there, having a winning score each week seems like it will come down too much to just getting that one pick correct, but if that's the way they want it, so be it!

    But Beat the Prick is by far the best contest SBR holds (in my view anyway!), and now we sort of get TWO such contests this fall - amazing! Should be tremendous fun - hopefully for those like me who have a high tendency to bomb BTP, having two contests will enable me to at least remain in contention in one of them

    Is The Bag short for Douchebag and if so I assume JJ is the one we need to beat?

    I'm a much better NCAA football capper. I'll struggle in beat the bag. The winner of this contest will have true bragging rights and could possibly be a candidate in the last Vegas Hilton contest
