Don't get too comfy in that lofty spot - I'm comin' for ya!:cool:
Let me get the La-Z-Boy out, it's gonna be a long wait!:cool:

Grandpappy Ray.....please take note...were it not for a meteorite striking my house and me consequently not being able to pick one week, you would be firmly in second where you belong. :)
I'd recommend extra sharp cheddar with that whine. ;)

Don't you love it when Mainiacs trash talk amongst themselves? :p
It's called talking the truth.

:p:eek: Whoa , whoa here.....on second thought, how can I have the best record and be in 9th place or whatever :D :) Is this some of that bonus BS :confused:
Buy me a beer, I'll give you a few lessons on how to cheat. :D

I do congratulate you though, all bear, on your 22-6-2 record. I'm rather embarrassed that I'm ahead of you in the standings. Never-the-less, I will continue on with my unexceptional picks.
Do you owe teddy bear money or something? I'm embarrassed for all bear, the poor hack, being so far back.

Re: 2013-2014: NCAA Weekly Pick'em

I have too many x-chromosomes to understand how the bonus works... :confused:

:p:D:D

So, this week, the Bonus is not an all or nothing. For example, on the first bonus question, let's say that you predict 29 goals for the six ECAC contests. If there are 29 goals scored in the contests you receive 5 points. If there are 32 goals scored, you receive 2 points (you were 3 goals off, 5-3=2). However, if there are say 44 goals scored, you will receive 0 points (44-29 = 15 goals off, but you can't dip into the negative this week). The same applies for the second bonus question.

Basically, I chose to go with this format for Bonus this week because the likelihood that someone would correctly pick the number of shots on goal in any one game is quite low (same with total goals out of 6 games).

We'll see how it goes. This year, I'm going to try out different things to see what people like and dislike.

* Here are your options for the Super Sunday Vegas Pick:
1) If you pick MSU, they have to win by 4 goals or more, then you get two points
- pick would look like this: AIC @ MSU - MSU
2) If you pick AIC, they have to either win, tie, or lose by 3 goals or less, then you get two points
- pick would look like this: AIC @ MSU - AIC
3) If you pick AIC "straight up" and they win, you get eight points (do NOT pick MSU "straight up"...you will lose 2 points)
- pick would look like this: AIC @ MSU - AIC Straight Up
4) If the game ends with MSU winning by 3, it will be considered a push, and everyone will receive 1 point (unless you picked a tie, then you will receive -2 points)
