| Aug. 25, 2011 Lecak Men's 60 1026 posts | Let;s lighten this up Pro football First off anyone play fantasy football? I do it keeps me in numbers and statistics which I love. If you do chime in. Second living in Vegas obviously I get to dabble at the sports windows legally. Last couple of years I have been keeping track of my percentages last year in 45 games I had a winning percentage of 64.5%. If you haven't seen me on the softball diamonds much there you go, I got my nose studying trends and statistics. This year I'm going to participate in the Hilton Supercontest. $1500 entry fee about 350 handicappers from around the country. I'm putting my money where my mouth is and decided to see if I could duplicate last years performance. I want to be able to document these numbers. The Hilton has their own website and my picks will go under My Platinum Picks App. This should be fun and either very lucrative or very embarrassing. Good luck to everyone this year and enjoy your favorite team. My team is the Pittsburgh Steelers and I'm and Arizona Cardinal season ticket holder. My dilemma the Steelers are playing the Cardinals the same weekend as the Phoenix worlds, pretty sure I will be at the stadium. |

| Aug. 25, 2011 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | No problem making the game...your team should be out by then. ;) |
| Aug. 25, 2011 green rocket 51 posts | Fantasy Football can be time consuming. I know of individuals that go overboard with several teams and leagues. I've tried it before but I'm just not that dedicated to see who's available on the waiver wire each week. Better to enjoy watching the game and may the best team win. |
| Aug. 25, 2011 Lecak Men's 60 1026 posts | Maddog stick to the 52 ball your football knowledge is in need of some brush up just kidding. Bert summers are for golf and fall and winter at the book no time for softball. Bert years ago one of my hero's growing up in Pittsburgh was Jimmy Vacarro who grew up in Pittsburgh and moved to Vegas setting betting lines. I did some undergrad and post grad work in statistics hoping to make book for a casino. I had a chance to work at the Stardust years ago but turned it down they just don't hand you the keys to the kingdom. DBAX you'll be in the same boat I'm in but you can't have my extra ticket. I would bet the Tuscon Bandits will be out before the early Saturday east coast college kickoff. DC what about Justin Upton for MVP and Gibson for manager of the year. |
| Aug. 25, 2011 Webbie25 Men's 70 2413 posts | Football??????!!!! Sacrilege!!!!!! Go Lions--ok, now you know why I don't do fantasy football-Lions fans can't even dream about it-like the CUBS!! Justin Verlander for Cy Young-nobody close-even Sabathia!! Have fun with the thread-light and kidding is great!! |
| Aug. 25, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | mmm joe,to much dry air there tightening up your brain wave lengths......LOL....think my pats have done some pretty good pick-ups this season.their D has really been putting pressure on the QB,something they didn't really do last year.AZ has a couple of good pick-ups them selves,but still need a couple more.yeah i'm kind of a pitt fan a little,as growing up didn't have the pats till the 60's,and pitt was the closest team to me that wasn't a new york team,no way a GOOD new englander would ever go for a NY TEAM. webbie,lions, what can we say....DOH,LOL.....hey my PATS practice against you guys this week,joe whats the over/under for the score........i'm thinking plus 50 at least,with 75% of it(at least)for the pats |
| Aug. 25, 2011 Webbie25 Men's 70 2413 posts | Not enough-we haven't won since 1957 and I remember reading it on my stone tablet of the Detroit News! But-Detroit has as many NFL Championships as the Cowboys. hehehehe! |
| Aug. 25, 2011 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | Joe, I remember Sonny Vacarro. I've been around that long. I also played with the guy who does it now Kenny White. I believe he won the Super book contest at least twice. As for all this talk of anyone from the Diamondbacks winning any award, when the Giants come back and beat them up with the beat-up AAA squad they are putting on the field, that allk will all cease and Bochy will be manager of the year and Panda MVP. |
| Aug. 25, 2011 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | Joe, you are right about us. As for manager of the year, Gibson should be a shoo in. In fact the entire coaching staff should be. Upton...no MVP until he can catch a fly ball and hit a cutoff. |
| Aug. 25, 2011 Dbax Men's 65 2100 posts | And FOFO, the Giants are done. And the Dbacks are winning with more of a AAA lineup than the Giants! |
| Aug. 26, 2011 FOFO Men's 60 284 posts | I'm beginning to think the G Men could be done as well. Losing to Houston? WTH! As for whos got the better line-up, the best Giants players are on the DL, so the D Bax most certainly are the better team right now, but you never know. |
| Aug. 27, 2011 gary c 418 posts | Mr Lacock A degenerate gambler and a fantasy dork. I bet the Casinos send a limo for suckers that think they can beat the odds. You bitch about us, and you want to brag about what a great gambler you are. WHAT HAS THAT TO DO WITH SOFTBALL? How's your sister? |
| Aug. 27, 2011 einstein Men's 50 3112 posts | Hey Joe. That's a sample of this animal's characterles contribution to us which SSUSA is trying to equate to mine. Now that's amazing. Don't trip. You're the best, yesterday, today and tomorrow. He said nothing about you but about himself as always and those who support and have supported him. We're going to Reno for SPA next weekend. Hope to see you soon. |
| Aug. 27, 2011 gary c 418 posts | Who's talking to you Frisco Joe? He asked me to do this. Animal you are a very bad person. |
| Aug. 27, 2011 gary c 418 posts | Joey 2 Joey 1 is mad at me again please explain to him that you asked me to rag on you. Just wanted to help you complete your bucket list. Have a great day Joey 1 and 2. Your friend Gary C, |
| Aug. 28, 2011 Webbie25 Men's 70 2413 posts | Let's see, mad dog-you're right 50 was just a little to much to give the Pats against the Lions, they only needed 25. DOH, LOL. It's only preseason and I never put ANY stock in that. |
| Aug. 28, 2011 mad dog Men's 65 4191 posts | oh webbie,yes it was only a preseason game.lions came to play even tho.and hey that is my line,i have it copyrighted,you owe me 4 beers now.......... |
