    Any Goals For Starter Bankroll Sept 1??

    Many think you need at least 5000 or you shouldn’t even be in the game in todays world

    Heck if I can get my hands on 1500 I can probably make things happen that’s the goal right now

    Start saving $10 a day today. You will have $500 on September 1st. Then bet it all on one football game (make sure it's one of jjgold's pound game).

    Then after you lose your bankroll on jjgold's pound game start over again and you will have $500 on November 1st.

    This is how you build bankroll.

    Johnny, you gearing up for NFL?

    I'd imagine that you're passing on Coll FB.

    I have an idea for NFL. Will wait for your response and tell more in coming weeks.

    If there's any interest, was going to start an NFL contest on the site. Contestants would be my Invite Only.

    My idea was like 3 picks per week, made during the Thurs Nite window. Payout would be small, like one LTC (or $60 to the winner).

    Might be fun, and it's sometimes nice to know who people are betting. If you think it's a dumb idea, I won't do it.

    When you say BIGGER (lol)...what do you mean? Payout?

    Was planning to pay out of my pocket. Not like I have a sponsor.

    PI, let me figure out the details. I was really thinking to make it 3 picks (w/ weight of 3/2/1), unless you guys think 5 picks would be better. Sides only, IMHO.

    Plays made vs frozen lines during the Thurs Nite window. Contest runs during month, so like 4 weeks.

    I stress that it would be just $$ out of my pocket. So, prize $$ might not be so big (unless I win the lottery).

    JJ you have what it takes to gamble professionally like you did back in 06 and the first half of 07. People left and right were asking who Corbin likes. Dont give up JJ, you can be back there again.

    Probably spread like 1500 across three sites with about 50k in reserve.

    I don't want to dip into my retirement any more than I have to. Selling used cars doesn't pay as much as it used to.
