Sam, join in the points pool next month. Longest streak wins the pot. This month we had 17 entrants, 20 points each. Our longest streak is 6 so far.

Well I might as well follow you. GL

hard choice. I wasn't sure whether to do Baylor 3s or Kobe.

there was like 20 seconds to get in the Baylor pick after Pitt won.

ending up passing

**ronjon619** · 01-17-11, 10:46 PM

i got a W5 riding on Kobe

**mikejamm** · 01-17-11, 11:31 PM

Damn it, I keep missing picks and then when I get one in it fuk'in loses!

Win one, lose one, is not the way to build a dang streak fellas!

Got no luck today, that's for sure!

bad taste man

**ronjon619** · 01-18-11, 12:26 AM

Kobe is passing way too much

**yisman** · 01-18-11, 01:50 AM

so it didn't matter

once I took Pitt I was sunk because Baylor and Kobe both got blown out

had I taken single digit win or loss maybe I could've gotten in the 9:05

oh well...

**OmgUrMom** · 01-18-11, 01:59 AM

got a W6 going, putting it on aussie 2morro

wasn't trying to be funny or anything...i meant, if my memory serves me correctly, the nba team has a pretty poor record when playing on martin luther king day

**yisman** · 01-18-11, 11:47 PM

there a free win today because roddick match locked about 45 minutes after it started.

It should've been ruled a push, but it wasn't.

It was 4-4 or 5-5 in the first set when it locked.

**CaDDyy** · 01-19-11, 09:47 PM

I got a w10 is it possible for me to even win still?

**yisman** · 01-19-11, 09:51 PM

What do you mean?

Anyway, I got to 4 on ND and put it on Oklahoma State.

I mean is there anyway I can catch up to the leader making solid picks. 12 days left and the leader has 22 it looks slim

**yisman** · 01-19-11, 10:11 PM

oh, you have a solid chance

finding one good pick a day on average shouldn't be difficult.

The hitting 12 in a row is the hard part, but having this much time means that isn't much of an issue.

**Optional** · 01-20-11, 01:31 AM

The pool prize should jackpot to next month if no one gets to W10. We are a sad group this month.

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 02:01 AM

eh someone will probably hit 10

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 02:49 AM

howell is -123 and getting the tie

**frizzelli** · 01-20-11, 04:49 AM

I have hit 9 like 4 times never 10 now I am on 5 again 18-3 for the month

**CaDDyy** · 01-20-11, 01:51 PM

I took CH3 over cink for W11 the rutgers are looking like the best pick tonight? any1 got any other opinions?

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 01:52 PM

how about Maryland?

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 06:41 PM

choices:

a)rutgers and then maryland (if it unlocks in time)
b)maryland

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 06:49 PM

actually, henin under and Washington margin are pretty big favorites as well.

edit: arizona is projected for like 6 3s, and spread is 10. solid fave

henin under 9.5 is only like -115/-120 no vig, though. I misjudged the amount of vig on this stuff.

**CaDDyy** · 01-20-11, 07:32 PM

these teams are horrid but if rutgers win maryland is my next pick

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 07:35 PM

also rose over dirk is a pretty big fave

but rutgers was the only 7 PM one out of the ones I listed

**Salmon Steak** · 01-20-11, 08:46 PM

It would be a miracle to hit 27 in a row. I don't even want to play this anymore. Stupid ESPN

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 08:53 PM

27 has only been done a handful of times in SftC's existence.

Good news is that the cash rolls over to the next month if no one reaches it.

**yisman** · 01-20-11, 09:05 PM

USF kept fouling even though the game was out of reach, but thankfully there was an early unlock and like a 30 second window to get the next pick in.

**ronjon619** · 01-20-11, 09:14 PM

I got up from the couch after the game and it was locked. They showed a pregame shot of Maryland with 15 minutes left. I thought I was good to hit the head and then make the pick. Didn't make it, I took Blake tonight.

**CaDDyy** · 01-20-11, 10:37 PM

Timberrrrrrrrrrrrrr if vatech wins

**yisman** · 01-21-11, 02:24 AM

yeah and today I didn't fade the SftC faves.

**Optional** · 01-21-11, 03:02 AM

Uzbeks first up. I'm on them for larger then usual.

**yisman** · 01-21-11, 10:07 AM

I'm pretty sure I've lost more decent streaks this month than just about anyone.
