    West's wild ncaa/nfl capping contest

    Rules;

    1. 25 per, payable through normal channels.

    2. Capper must make 11 picks, players choice of NCAA/NFL consisting of at least 4 of NCAA and 4 of NFL, the remaining 3 are player's choice of either NFL/NCAA.

    3. Picks must be either game sides or totals, no 1/4 plays, no team totals, no props, etc.

    4. Each pick that wins is worth +1pt for a win or -0- for a loss.

    5. There will be a new and improved V Bomb of +/- 3 in play, meaning if the VBomb pick wins, it counts as +3pts, if the V Bomb loses, it counts as -3pts. Players choice whether to deploy the V Bomb or not, there is no mandate to use it.

    6. Contest runs Thursday, 9/10/15 to Monday, 9/14/15. Player with the most points wins the prize. In case of a looming tie, all players must pick total points scored for the MNL game.

    7. I will try to post lines by Thursday AM, may need help in that area if I get busy or a game is not up yet, other players can post those lines.

    Comments, concerns, general griping, post before Thursday night and we can tweak it. Who's in/out?

    11 picks with at most 12 if V bomb is thrown, right? 2 mnf games coming up...i guess you can pick the early or the late if needed after dust settles Sunday. Meant to throw shoes with Tex but didnt better try n find my damn hand grenades again or something.

          I was thinking just 11 picks, the option of one of those 11 being V Bombed. Also was going to go Thursday to Monday, but if you want to include this Monday's NCAA game, no complaints here.

          You boys in Texas got the space to blow shit up, I do that up here, the men in the black SUV's will be knocking hard at the door.

            Pushes are scored as zero, we can't give another pick, because if someone gets a push on the last game of the week, we would have to give him/her another chance to pick, so it will be scored a pick and a zero.

                so the V Bomb Adds 2 pts to a win, but -3points to a loss, since a win is a +1, and a loss is 0 if not used. Am I correct?

                    OKAY! Looks like they'll be a "lil' bit of jockeying for the win!

                        Well, you are actually laying extra odds 3-2 when you use the V Bomb, because you are risking losing three points, when you are only gaining two over the normal win...

                        Yeah,

                        Just cant help myself.. At least I am not as bad as your fishing buddy Dave, counting fishing worms while he is digging them out of the cow patties. Oh... He is a CPA, what the hell do you expect.
