Hey guys ... Tomorrow is the UEFA Cup .. not quite as cool as the Champions League.. but at any rate ... there are 15 games and that means a lot of soccer.

I was thinking about getting something going for tomorrow so we have the same amount of traffic on the soccer forum as today!

So what I'm setting up is a 15 question contest that only costs 10 points. It will have a question or prop from every game.

Same as all contests you just post your 10 points and post your picks to the games before the start of the first game tomorrow!

I thought it was would be cool so we are keeping an eye on all of the games regardless of if you bet on them or not.

So let the research and picks begin.

Picks must be in before first game tomorrow or the picks are void.

You can copy and paste the card below and fill it out and post back!

Haha I guess I can understand why people feel it's risky .. but I post everyday in all different forums .. if I ever didn't pay or kept peoples points I would hope people would be ruthless on me since I offered this competition ... The winner will get paid ... I love these kind of contests ... makes the games more interesting to watch...

Correct.

[mlb]

Ok. I as many other ppl were either unaware or not up for the start of the first game. I want a quick vote as to whether or not we will let other ppl put in their card excluding the rubin game? They will not receive credit in other words. Some sites had varying start times. If you guys don't want any other ppl to enter I will respect your request and keep the contest closed? Your thoughts?

Need you to clear that up ..... if he plays bet will count ... only voided if he doesnt play at all

[mlb]

Steven and Llorente goal is only if they play in the game .... an appearance start or sub will count. Bet will Void if they don't play. Thank you

[mlb]

Another thing is the either team wins or a draw? Some people have said which team will win .. This is irrelevant ... If they picked a certain team wins it will count as a WIN pick and not a draw.

[mlb]

Please do not edit your post. I have copied down all of everyones picks so editing after the games started will not count and you will be excluded and your pts will go towards the pot .. thank you

[mlb]

Please respond with your vote ... if it's no I'm more than happy with keeping the contest closed ... If you vote open we could get more guys to increase the pot size for more than 2 hours
