    THe contest is going to revolve around categories....things like Ks, walks, hits and so on. People will guess the total between the two teams and the person who gets the most correct will win a prize. there is no post up or anything, there is no sign up, you just make your selections each Sunday night. What kind of categories would we like to see? are there any other suggestions?

      How about total hits, home runs, walks, strikouts, and total amout of errors (errors in a game would be a fun one. Another fun one would be who hits the farthest home run during the game. Those are just a few. If I think of more I will post.

                number of total pitches by the starters may be a good tiebreaker

                            I like all the stats people have been coming up with. How about number of double plays turned by both teams?

                                          O/U number of times I laugh at Joe Morgan's ineptitude as a broadcoaster (total would have to be set quite high).

                                              how bout just ATS and O/u . . .

                                              Use those other catergories for the tie breakers since there will be alot of 'em . . .

                                              Its the best of both worlds, plus you have to win both sides to qualify first . . .

                                                  I prefer to keep it simple. Farthest HR & fastest pitch are unacceptable as the results are too diffucult to find/verify.

                                                        -Hitman, we can't have it too simple or it would be difficult to separate the field.

                                                        -Bill, we'll make the total one of the categories, but we'll have to shade a half a point in one direction to avoid pushes/no action bets.

                                                        -OLGC_Slayer, we'll def include that.
