Default No Sunday night baseball contest this week?Seemed like a good deal?

There weren't very may people playing the Sunday baseball contest the last 2 weeks.Did it go bye bye?I think there were 14 people playing last week and were there 5 winners?If no one qualified by outright guessing the props,were the tie breaker losers given free betting account prizes?Seemed like a fun contest to me.

Last week the contest wasn't put up on the site until like 4 or so, I think that attributed to there being less people participating. I really like the contest, but it needs to go up on Saturday or at least make people aware if they are going to have it or not in advance.

It was a fun contest but maybe a different format is needed guessing exactly how many hits, strikeouts and errors will be made is more like playing the daily 3.

I was told it was from a lack of interest.

There wasn't a whole lot of interest...especially last week cause the contest wasn't posted until 4:00 or so.

I am sure the contest will get off the ground if it is posted early on a regular basis. The format (correct guesses) IMO, was off a bit, tho. But, that is not for me to say, it is my job to just play.

I can go sell 5 $20 bags of weed and make $50 clear in Newark in 5 minutes

Why hassle over a $50 contest?

Agreed and I won $100 the first week

I am going to sit here and watch the game anyway, more fun to have a contest than not.

JJ, you are on here typing all damn night, might as well enter the contest.
