Thumbs up Who's ready for another 64 man handicapping tournament?

A little birdie told me one will be offered to you guys soon...

What's your reaction and do you have any comments or things you'd like to see in it differently this time around?

if sbr is doing it officially, i expect a top prize of more than 1k. otherwise, it is not worth the effort.

There will be prize goodies involved, but remember this is a nice appetizer to the BTP contest where tons of cash and other valuables are given away to winners.

So there'll be no shortage of stuff to have a shot at winning...

Of course.

There'll be plenty of time to get yourself signed up when it's ready, just be quick on the trigger.

You're at the right place then, because there is a _0$_ entry fee.

Stay tuned for more details!

Anybody who played in the last one have any comments or things they'd like to see thrown in? Diogee and I will be working on getting one thrown up for you fellas soon..

When we're geared up and ready to go, we'll make sure everyone knows when to expect the sign up thread. If you'd like I'll drop you a line at that time so you don't by chance miss out again...

Last contest was too long , six weeks drags out. I would like to see each round like 3 days with more picks.

Need cap on dogs and raise favorites higher than -140.

Better rules also, too many changes after the start last time.

If there is soccer involved I'm in. We should also be allowed to use parlays with a certain cap.

How about shorter rounds early and longer rounds as the tourney progresses?

If you get to 63 and need one more, I'll be more than happy to provide someone with an easy Round 1 victim to beat up on

That's very generous of you, must be because you'd plan on betting the Astros.

I'm in, but i think there should be a tourney that lasts longer than the last. It all boiled down to who was the hotter capper, not who was better, due to the small sample size.

Im in.

Each round you should get one *lock* which double the value and can only be applied on dogs. It adds +100 to the price. ex. +120 would be +220. If you win it hits at +2.20 units. If you lose it will cost you -2.20 units

Thats the point though. Just like the real March Madness, its about who is hot/playing well at the right time
