    Default Beat The Prick - update

    Okay I'm not one of these guys who thinks a ball game is over when a team goes up a touchdown on their first drive. This game is far from over - and Beat The Prick for the week is even farther from over. I'm just giving an update for interested parties.

    The Prick's Iowa Cyclones -8.5 (not his "Best Bet" by the way) are currently trailing 16-0 to Iowa State with 1:19 left in the 1st half.

    GO STATE!!

    To be fair, Iowa QB Tate did leave the game early. But, from all accounts Iowa St. was the right side anyway.

    Did The Prick purchase "Quarterback Insurance" from Bettor's Trust on that pick?

    The Senator scores with Auburn! Score: Senator 1, The Prick -1!

    I'm not so certain that there will be a lot of winners. There's quite a few people who lost games today, just like The Prick. Green Bay was The Prick's Best Bet and I like The Pack's chances tomorrow. The Rams were a solid pick as well. I think The Prick manages two points this week and the only ones who beat him are people like me who get all 4 points! It's mathematically impossible to get 3 points, so if The Prick wins his two games tomorrow, only people picking all three right will win. This is a very well devised contest.

    Yeah but that's a pretty massive assumption that the Prick will win his remaining picks. You may like the looks of them but the fact is, this is week 1 and everything is basically a coin-flip at this point.

    I like the contest. It adds an interesting little angle to my Sunday.

    I didn't assume he would win both games today. I said his picks were solid and that I think he'll have two points this week. Like a lot of people, I've lost enough money doing this to know that nothing is a sure thing! I'm just hoping that the Bills and Chargers come through because if they both cover, I've got a perfect 4 points and nothing to worry about!

    Sure looks like he will be paying out at least a few. BTW has any contestant won all 3 games?

    I feel solid about my picks, especially since my TOP pick looks like its in the bag.

    I'm not sure yet TM. I will grade the contest once all of the games are completed.

    Wow, I am going to go from pissed that Ohio State blew it last night to furious if that Prick rag goes 0-3.

    0 pts may do me well this week. DET saves me since the Prick's best bet with GB goes down the drain!

    Atleast your best bet had a chance, I can't believe the Titans are that bad. I feel like an idiot for that pick. Atleast I won my other two.

    I wish I'd had a go now. A monkey with a pin could have done better than The Prick.

    Almost all of the regulars won. Only people who won't win are those with like 3 posts. Official standings will be posted after the game.
