no response from abrignac...looks like z chickened out this year...anybody seen Gumby - he always wins ...

Got it today Lance... You're in and good...when I set up the group I'll PM you the info along with the other guys.

All Login info for the group has been PM'd to everyone, if I missed anyone or if anything doesn't work please let me know ASAP

Wanna give a quick update and shout out to a very generous BOTL.

1st off I wanna thank everyone that keeps this contest going every season......Over the past few years I've not been very active on the board (except for this contest) due to life in general ,trying more here lately though because I do enjoy the banter between most of ya'll! Between a full time, part time job and family life it doesn't leave much for anything else so I sincerely thank you guys!

This makes the 3rd year that I've been running it so to speak and I've tried changing a few things about it to get more participants involved (it's honestly like pulling teeth at times) with lowering the "High price and Aged cigars" ante stipulation and adding the prizes I provide, It has encouraged more new guys to play but not near as many as I would like, bc the more we have playing the more interesting it becomes week to week.

With all that being said, if you guys have and recommendations or any input on what ya'll would like to see change or improved, please don't hesitate to PM me so we can discuss it!

I'm running out of ideas on what prizes to personalize for the winners so if you have any request on what you would like to possibly see, please let me know ...it's almost like I'm getting writer's block lol

1 final but absolutely not last subject , Please let Whizzy1(Kevin) have a round of thanks for his amazing generosity!
I got a package with his ante (which is worth playing for by itself), 6 incredible sticks for me (which I told him not to send)
[-x , and to the winner goes an additional 14 count sealed box of ceegars! I'm not putting what the box is but rest assured I would be happy to win it lol!

Kevin you are an absolute class act brother, Thanks and Cheers! 🍺 🇨🇮

Thank you for putting it together. Thanks to Whizzy1 too.

Thanks for hosting again and glad everything landed ok.

10 is a decent number.

There is still time to add a few!

Youdaman, whizzy, the Diaper Man!!!

and csgamecock deserves credit for keeping this going...as well as adding value for those of us who've played for a few years.

Thanks to the game **** for hosting this and whizzy for adding to the pot . I really enjoy it I am in another pool where it's 100 bucks buy in for the year and it uses point spreads which really is hard to pick that might be something to consider cause the leader is always changing .

Thanks for letting me join.

Chris
Are we playing with spread? Is it just the winner of each game?

No it's just straight picks...... there's a few ppl that don't care for spreads ,so I keep it simple.
There are a ton of games though....the 1st week is 34 games, I made most of my picks last night.

Even without the spread the last few seasons came down to a game or 2

Thanks Whizzy! I've won an ante or two from him and he don't mess around with prizes, the term above and beyond doesn't even do it justice.

Thanks again for running this Chris, I know it can be a lot of work.

make your picks, gents...season starts this Saturday!!!

Going to be fun day of football!

Get those picks in gentlemen and good luck to everyone!!!

GO GAMECOCKS!!!!!

Got off on the wrong foot with Army...

Well that wasn't how I wanted to start ........ I have no idea how I picked FIU against Indiana ....... And apparently I gave Michigan way too much credit

Same here with Navy......I thought they had Hawaii in their pocket.Then friggin Maryland rises to the occasion against Texas........and I really thought Texas Tech would handle Ole Miss.

Never bet against the Irish Chris.I honestly think they're better than their current ranking would imply.

Tight results this week..

The herd will thin by week 4
