I am kinda hungry

Hey Paleo,

if you are a horrible bettor, will you go ahead and bet on Florida for me today? A small play on Alabama would also be appreciated.

[Paleo8]

Hey Jd if I bet on Florida or Bama, Will you split? good luck today

[compscure]

I think he's just trying to put the whammy on them to help his longhorns.
My hunch is they'll get Poke'd Oct 25 anyhow

Surely you meant Oct 31, when we might be given a "little" bit of trouble by a team that hasn't beaten us in over a decade and has their only game changer type player (dez) out with an injury?

I doubt Mizzou will do any poking on Oct 25 I guess especially considering we play them on saturday... the 24th...

Though I understand the confusion, the Longhorns have been looking like a team that you might more likely see playing Sunday.

hmmm...
then why try to hex the SEC?
You guys win out, you'll be there.
Surely you want to play the best possible opponent if you make it

(the pokes have a knack for getting up 4 TDs on you guys. one of these days the clock will run out before they can complete their collapse)

[jdelgado06]

good point. As a big 12 guy, I guess I just have a general distaste for the SEC. I hate the Tim Tebow hype.

I'm actually hoping for a Texas v Bama championship.

as far as okie lite, I'll be the first to admit, that team has given me more heart attacks than any other over the last several years.

last derailer post:

I hate the Tim Tebow hype.

It's a joke. Greatest college player ever?
Put him on the Texas national champs and USC wins that game by 2 TDs. Put Young on last year's UF team and they're an all-time great.

Vince Young was the best college player since Barry Sanders. And that's coming from an OU guy.

JD I would bet on the Chiefs today just because they are dressing out in their old retro AFL uniforms,, Is that a good reason to bet on them? Well beside Jessica having Romo on a lead..

I just can't decide on my MNF bets there are so many good match ups... Well besides SP3K and I .... I'm gonna be a big money maker for someone

[jdelgado06]

Hehe. Bets updated on OP.

Guys - since FCR is still down, I'll accept bets up until compscure posts the games (i'll compare timestamps if needed).

[lord_hamybal]

i got 2 times 100 bets on me i hope i don't be dissapointing you 2..
jhawk play those games much

[cooljenny]

Would have bet 100 on me until I read the rules (not allowed to bet on yourself). I see lots of people are betting against me. Wish I had noticed that sooner.

[jdelgado06]

don't worry about it cool-j, i think they are just sucking up to me so I don't pull out my banehammer

[Paleo8]

Question If Compy has to edit because of a "no show" do we win the forfeit? or will everyone just readjust the betting to the new match ups, or what?
never mind I just reread the OP

[compscure]

Scheduling update:
only one no show, but it looks like it will affect some bets:
no submission from sparkleflower, so Layman will be playing rlbabits in his place.

[jdelgado06]

thanks for letting us know, compscure!

I sent out a PM to those that bet on that game. All bets related to that game have been cancelled, but you still have time to bet on the updated rlbabits vs layman line! good luck, and happy betting!

[compscure]

I had to switch 2 games because of level confusion:

Mr Sir played Harley Dan
and
Ironmano played Slickgoku

[jdelgado06]

Thanks, compscure.

updating now... may take a while!

[jdelgado06]

ok, updated. and please check my math!

to get your new account total, take your original account value (100 for all of you this week), and add/subtract all the bet results in (parenthesis) in the results on the 2nd post, then add 50 for the weekly bonus.

Feel to check the math on the actual winnings for an individual bet. The multipliers should be .8333 for -120, and 1.2 for +120. We had a couple pushes because compscure had to change a couple matchups at the last second.

All in all it was a great first week! I'll update with the week 3 lines after the schedule gets posted!

[jdelgado06]

I will update the week 3 schedule and lines in the morning.
