Yes, but a W27 is required. Chances are both of those 20+ streaks don't get there. They're only at 20 and 21.

W21 goes down on Colorado.

**yisman** · 03-23-11, 09:26 PM

Can't decide on whether to pick Denver or not.

Cabo (Cabo999) W10*
Craigpb (KA) W10*
Ouman101 (Buckeyville) W10
Lordswing (Lordswing) W9*

Nice work going on with one week to play.

**lordswing** · 03-25-11, 11:18 AM

lame choice/s tonight, march madness picks are really disappointing

e: is there some reason MLs aren't up on the braves/phillies?

**yisman** · 03-25-11, 11:44 AM

^ It's a split squad game. No odds on split squad.

Considering Phillies there.

In golf, Mahan is actually a slight favorite over Mickelson and is getting the tie.

gotcha, I'm obviously aware of spring training games

will probably have to take a risk soon, assuming cabo is on the same pick as i am

What do you mean by 'aware of spring training games'?

i pay lots of attention to them of course!

**yisman** · 03-25-11, 01:10 PM

haha, I missed the sarcasm.

Yeah, I don't pay much attention either, except look at lines for contests and look at SftC picks. I'm watching this, the second spring training game I've watched. I don't think I ever watched spring training before this year.

**yisman** · 03-25-11, 03:23 PM

Turns out both of the ones I wanted this afternoon won/are winning fairly easily.

Phillies scored 2 in the first and were never threatened.

Mahan is up 3 strokes and has the tie option.

I'm in another pool and it has 9 members.

Currently active:

W9

No one on a losing streak.

Needless to say, my chances of winning there are not looking good.

**craigpb** · 03-26-11, 01:50 AM

Damn, got too aggressive, can't believe all my chasers lost too.

**ronjon619** · 03-26-11, 01:57 AM

next month Im coming with a different stragety.

**yisman** · 03-26-11, 07:04 PM

#^$%#^ this month

**MexicanStallion** · 03-26-11, 07:09 PM

11 is going to be tough to catch with just 5 days remaining.

**yisman** · 03-26-11, 07:25 PM

yeah and the guy picking for me didn't get a single one right.

To make matters worse, I would've skipped last night except I was running out of time. I narrowed it down to Portland or FSU and...

FSU barely loses and Portland wins.

im not going for 5 picks a day. 1-2 and THATS IT. Quality over quanity

**craigpb** · 03-26-11, 11:30 PM

There really are some easy picks if you can wait; just really hard to do that. Can still be caught thanks to the MLB Stunt day though guessing they will be a lot of tossups.

**lordswing** · 03-27-11, 10:21 AM

really late for this, and after 2 days to think it over, i'm still beyond shock/anger

I did originally say I was done after March for the side wager. Count me in for April.

better be playing, i want my points back

**yisman** · 03-29-11, 02:02 AM

Closest night I can remember seeing.

Let's review:

MIL@CHA: Charlotte opens as 1 point favorite, but line moves and Milwaukee winds up 1 point favorite. Charlotte wins 87-86.

Blackhawks@Red Wings: Red Wings slight favorite (-120), until money comes in on Chicago in the hour before gametime. Closed at -104/-104, or at least that's what Pinnacle had it at just before the start. Blackhawks win 3-2 in overtime

ORL@Knicks: Orlando a 2 point favorite. Very close throughout, goes to overtime, Knicks win 113-106

Oregon 3s vs. Creighton winning margin: basically a pick'em. Looked good for Creighton, but Oregon narrowed the gap late and actually wound up with 10 made 3s, besting the 84-76 margin. Another tight one.

NHL o/u: over was -121 the last I checked. 2-0 after one period, making it on track for a close finish. However, an onslaught of Anaheim goals in the second period buried the under and people who like NHL big underdogs (like myself. I had Colorado +240 and Colorado +1.5 -115). Finished with nine goals for the only sftc matchup of the night that didn't wind up as a photo finish.

Not only do they not lose by 2... Aussies beat Germany.

No less than I deserved.

But think I might give up on that note.

**yisman** · 03-30-11, 10:32 AM

I wavered back and forth but finally took win or draw in the German minor league match.

Not much information available, but I'm running out of time here.

**lordswing** · 03-30-11, 07:54 PM

at the news of Super Thursday, should not have given up FML

**yisman** · 03-30-11, 08:02 PM

Lost a W5 on Carmelo.

I considered waiting, because I figured the 2H line would be off, but I didn't.

Loses on a tip-in of an Amar'e missed FT.

He had 17 in the first half.

Second half line 4.5 points off.
