    Personally I like this - spread the wealth a bit more! Just my opinion of course, and I'm sure there would be many people on both sides of this as to whether they think it's good or bad. That said, calling it the "worst decision made" seems pretty absurd given how subjective that sort of thing is.

    Either way, as the guy above said, be grateful as this is by far the best contest SBR runs each year and don't start quibbling over minutiae.

    Lol! It's not millions or 100 of 1000s, it's just few thousand dollars. If that's the case, I agree with you. They should have gone with the earlier prize format.

    I was just about to ask the very same thing. Even though I didn't do very well in either contest last year I enjoyed participating in both every week during football season.
