It was more of a hard liquor time for me back then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, then, yeah, of course it counts. You know what they say: too much of anything is bad, but too much whisky is never enough. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLien12x Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 I can't find their expert week zero - week one picks to compare against mine. We had way more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawgGoneIt Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 I think I'm 8-2 after their week 1. I will admit that I took a swing too though, in an attempt to make up ground after a not so good week 0 start. I would have went with BG over DeMatha if I wasn't playing against so many guys that went the other way or I could have been 9-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I ate these edibles two weeks ago. First time for me. I ate 3/4 of a 300mg cookie. The package told me to eat 1/10. But I thought I was a tough guy. About two hours later, I thought I was dying. Thank God my wife was there to take care of me. It was one of the worst nights of my life. And not my proudest moment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have at least 3 regular posters who are outperforming the "experts" who publish widely-read polls. Let's be fair and see how it goes as the season progresses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like that idea, as it adds an additional element of competition to it... although, over here in the HSFB "ghettos", we don't really consider them the competition. Our competition is each other.

Let's be fair and see how it goes as the season progresses. I had to do a recount. I went with Saguaro on the Liberty-Saguaro game. I was right in my first post that I was 8-2. This is why we let THS keep our scores. Wishful thinking garnered me one additional game haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if we can build a record of outperforming the experts, then we (or someone or other around here) can make a convincing case that our site (I'll include myself even though I've done nothing to earn it) has the best poll around. An then... I don't know. I ran out of steam. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow, I feel like if we ever can win over AZjimbo, we will have arrived on the scene. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what are we up to now, 5 or 6 regular posters who are outperforming the professionals? It has only been a week. But when half of the "experts" pick Cen10 over IMG, I can't help but expect the gap to widen as the season progresses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
