    Best NFL Contest on the Net
    Hey guys,

    Im new to the SBR so I'd like to introduce myself. Swinging Johnson is my name and I'm the audio handicapper at CaribSports now before you guys go off, I'm not here to do an informercial for Caribsports. I'm just letting you know what I'm all about. I post an audio file Thursday thru Monday on the Caribsports website. I'm also running their football handicapping contest called the Carib Classic.


    The truth be told they got about 600 live entries last year and gave away 250 Grand. At $250 per entry, it wasn't exactly a moneymaker. So what'd they do? The brainiacs at Carib decided to throw another hundred grand at the prize pool making it worth over $350,000 this year. And guess what, the entry fee stayed the same! Hey, they're not exactly mathletes, what can I tell you.

    This contest features year end cash prizes and weekly cash prizes. And guess what, they even have a Biggest Loser award to the "handicapper" who has the worst record at the end of the year. Right, so even you have a shot at making 10 grand for being the mush that you are. And if you're a complete mess, they give 5 thousand dollars to anyone who can go 0-10 in any given week of the NFL regular season. If the unthinkable happens and you go 10-0, you get $5000 all to yourself. Otherwise, the weekly cash prize is 5 grand for the winner to be split if there are multiple winners that week with a non perfect 10-0 record.

    Ok, so that's me and that's the contest. Did I mention the year end winner gets $75,000 and they pay 21 places? No, I don't believe I did. Guys, I don't think there's a bigger NFL handicapping contest on the net. So check me out at CaribSports and check out the Carib Classic. Just remember, I'm Swinging Johnson....and you're not!

                I will never criticize any other books contest particularly one that is from a reputable book like the The Greek and one that is free. However, to put this contest in the same category, in terms of the opportunity to make money, as Caribsports's Carib Classic is nonsense. First and foremost you will have thousands upon thousands entering this contest versus hundreds. Secondly, in order to make more than $1500 for coming in first among a cast of thousands, you would need to go 15-0 for that week to make 15K. Almost impossible. Secondly, if you hit over 86% (52-8) over a 4 week period, they will award you 150K with restrictions. It's a pie in the sky kind of contest but hey, you can't argue with the entry fee. I would rather pay less than $15 per week and have a real shot at some real money.

                    You're right, both good but completely different. Hard to believe the season is here. Entries can still be had and there are currently under 400 players signed up. Ridiculous!
