            This sounds excellent. Count me in to atleast put in an effort, though I'm sure many others will put in much more cogent, stat-proofed write-ups.

                  I'm not in. But I recommend 20Four7, bettilimbroke999 and BeatTheJerk as official bashers of posters write ups. I'm throwing in $20 for the prize winners.

                                  good quick turn out so far...trying to gauge so we can set the prize. Maybe we have a panel of judges?

                                  Keep em coming...

                                    I'd be happy with a panel of the admins/mods deciding. I think between Bill, Dan, and Ganch if he didnt want to participate that would be a good enough group.

                                            does the play have to win to be eligible for the prize?

                                            also is the prize something out of a cereal or crackerjack box?

                                              No, it will be for best information and content. Points for stats, trends, situational capping, line moves, value and anything else related to your pick.

                                              A book will give the winner cash in the account.

                                                  I think it's a terrific idea to try to recognize and reward acts of quality handicapping without tying them to results. You're going to draw some content from your readers that goes above and beyond tout speak.

                                                  I'm in.
