Two divisions of 10 using 10, 9, 8 etc confidence or one division of 20 using 20, 19, 18 etc confidence?

I must have you happy!





Either way is fine with me. This is your silly little challenge.

At least I made mine a little more challenging. If you can't handle it, chump, you can still back out.

I'll give you just one do-over. Just one.

Where do you see Millard South in my 10 game division.

You will need those 10 points, trust me

Oops. I had both Pick'ems up at the same time.

Corrected.

And there's not enough real evidence to overturn any of your picks in your Division...... possibly the Rockhurst game, but that's nothing..

I may let the whole thing ride on Cathedral Catholic then again I might not.

A strategic Ban Bet Pick'em decision has been finalized.
I'm letting it all ride on the Cathedral Catholic/Mission Hills game. I think that's the money.

There's nothing to be gained picking any game in Division B. So Division B becomes a wash. Upper Arlington and Platte County could possibly win, but I just don't see any need to play Guess'em.

Division B
Avon-10
Portland CC-9
Faith Lutheran-8
Summerville-7
Creighton Prep-6
Los Alamitos-5
Pick Central-4
Knox Central-3
Rockhurst-2
Dowling-1

Come on, swampie. What's the point of doing this if you're just going to copy my picks? This is why I wanted us to send our picks privately to someone.

I told you from the start your set of teams was cute and they wouldn't even matter. Maybe you should have bought into that.

Turned out maybe I was right.

The "point" was to win the Pick'em.
If Mission Hills wins you win.

I mean if you want me to put Platte County at a 1 Confidence, I guess I could do that and still win.

Just know a couple of things, Hillbilly.

You made several strategic errors in this Pick'em.

1- you got cute on your set of teams and rushed them in like it was supposed to intimidate me .
2-you played your cards much too early.

That said you still have a chance to win this Pick'em.

I took my time with everything.
I picked 10 worthy games (in my head), gave locations, team records, and even offered a few notes on the games.

I took my time on my Pick'em selections and did the leg work on each and every game by asking questions, reading articles and doing all the necessary research.

I never ever even knew there was a Platte County, Missouri.

Here's the kicker.
If I win the Ban Bet I will NOT hold you to that 60-day ban and I will never mention this Pick'em again.

First off, when you start a critique of something and you call them an idiot, or a hillbilly, or gay (even though I think you are) no one will take anything else you say seriously.

Second, you just copied all of my picks and just switched one. How is this really a contest or a battle of knowledge? It's just a coin flip. That's I actually did some research and found difficult games. Go ahead and take the easy way out, though.
