I don't know how I'm doing and I'm scared to look...

You're 11-0 with 3 games left.....if i counted correctly

Playin with my Vbucks is like playin with my emotions...

You've got 11 right so far with the quick glance I did. One problem though, just quick scanning a few others and lots of people are around 10 and 11 picks right so far this week.

Edit: 11 barring the Warriors game. Nuggets sent it to OT. There's still a very outside chance the Ws win by -15

For the against the spread games, did you have to use a site or did you come up with them yourself?

I did it on my own. That was my issue. I'm not sure if I was using my best judgement with those games.

That'd be my only problem, but I could give it a try for next week. As long as somebody else takes care of the standings and scores everyone got.

@purguy12 (10-2) 37-24 overall

It was a 3 way tie this week between Shaneman, WLK, and I but @Shanemansj13 won due to the tiebreaker. I removed Mecca, Lakersrule, and Handicappers from the list as it seem they're no longer apart of the group. @Bolts will be picking games this week.

@trojanfan12 @HammerDown please give @Shanemansj13 his vcash

 

[wildturkey]

Figured I'd tally things up again in an effort to redeem my rushed effort from last week. Here goes:

We had 3 people with 12-2 scores this; @Shanemansj13 , @wlk3 , @bksballer89 , so it went to the 1st tiebreaker.

So the winner is @Shanemansj13 with his guess of GS/Hou total points of 216. The actual total was 224

@Shanemansj13 12-2
@CitySushi 6-8
@purguy12 10-4
@TurnUpTheHeat 11-3
@trojanfan12 8-6
@Bolts 9-5
@wlk3 12-2
@logic 10-4
@Sportsguy9695 7-7
@Hornsstampede2.0 8-6
@bksballer89 12-2
@Lakers+USC=#1 10-4
@wildturkey 11-3


EDIT: Bah! Bk beat me by a couple of minutes. Too slow at math!
