    • Lots of more re-buys coming if Witchita St. doesn't pull through. Sheesh!
      Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

            I think I count 14 Shockers picks! That might be our biggest knockout ever.

              5 picks huh? 60% of the time, it works every time. I’m in.

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                  Yeah, maybe that’s the part we need to revamp next year. Everybody else is picking 1 winner and buyback has to pick 5. Seems like 3 would be more reasonable.

                  There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.

                    20 by my count. Definitely the biggest ever.

                      Or a tiered buy back of 3 if you didn’t buyback on Thursday and 5 for those who’ve bought back both days.

                        I like that idea.

                        If I can’t guess 2 games correctly, I highly doubt my capability to pick a nickels worth.

                          Yeah, there needs to be a financial penalty for reentry (easy) and a pick-related penalty. If would seem fair that each time you rebuy, you are penalized by having to pick at least one more team than successful players have had to pick. But I wonder if that would just result in lots of rebuys and ultimately a split pot.

                          • The current format heavily rewards those who either haven't picked incorrectly, or have bought back and done a very difficult feat in winning a 4, 5, or 6 team parlay. I like it the way it is. Needs to stay skewed heavily towards those who don't lose.
