2012 LB Pick Em
 

2012 LB PICK EM

Id like to welcome everyone to the second edition of LB Pick Em...i have collected a panel of experts to help weigh in their thoughts on this years football season to provide you with their personal Picks of The Week, what you might see on sunday, player/injury impacts, feedback from games, and much more...this years edition will start on Week 1 of the NFL season and continue until Week 15...the top two experts from each conference (with the highest correct-to-incorrect percentage) will advance to the playoffs...after picks from Week 16 and 17, we will then crown one expert the 'Pick Em Champion' which includes bragging rights for the year, potentially a custom title (?), and guaranteed entry into the next Pick Em edition

on a side note - whos getting the first 8-0 week and whens it happening?

Where are you gettin your spreads from? I'll just bookmark the site now to keep up. I might post mine early every week depending.

---------- Post added at 03:47 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:45 PM ----------

also, we doing a straight win/loss, or make the spread type guidelines for counting wins?

i encourage you to get them in as soon as possible...there will be a lot of no-shows, probably one a week (hopefully not, but..) and the deadline for each week is the saturday before the games begin...were going to have to talk about what to do for thursday games as those are gonna be happening every week after Week 2

and as for the official spread site - if you have a good one, send me it and ill throw it in the original post for all of us to use...spreads change from site to site, so we need to take our picks all from the same site

---------- Post added at 03:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:53 PM ----------

scoring will carry over week to week...the best you can do is 8-0 in any given week, the worst being 0-8...a no-show or late entry automatically gets you an 0-8 week...a few 0-8's and youre pretty much out of the running because 8-0's come few and far in between

---------- Post added at 03:57 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:54 PM ----------

you pick who will win the game - the spread is only used to help determine underdog match-ups...my underdog and your underdog may vary, thats why we use the spread

other than that, straight up winner and loser of 8 matchups of your choice

---------- Post added at 03:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:57 PM ----------

also - the comment section is going to grow at a fast rate...please message me your picks and try to keep from posting them as comments

I'm going to win again. So idk why you guys are even doing this lol

i forgot to add - along with you six regular picks, and two upset picks, you need to submit one final score for one of your picks (in the event of a tie, the person with the closer overall score will win the week)

btw last yr we started on wk 3... however the record to beat from 2011 is

Overall:Streetz-Da-Hood (77-27)
Win pct: Streetz-Da-Hood (74%)

With 2 extra weeks this time the record will most likely fall so I'll be hoping to at least keep the record for highest win pct
