DawgTalkers.net Forums DawgTalk Fantasy & Gaming Year 16 Of The Original Dawg Talker's Pick'ems

I'm quite sure Jules and Capt are cheating. Stop gaining on me.

Congrats Capt.

Do you see me waving in your rear view mirror?

I can see you waving the bird at him from WAY back here.

Vers, who you got tonight?

Houston. You?

Same. I was hoping I'd match your pick.

Looks like a lot of people had a good week.

I closed my eyes and picked this week. Much better results than trying to figure things out. LOL

Congrats T.O.T.

Congrats T o T.

On a side note Punch should live in Vegas.

Uncanny. Uncanny I tell ya.

Thinkin of, on the side, not playin next year and, for a small fee, he just givin me his top 3 picks of the week.

Uncanny. Just uncanny.

I've consistently picked against the Browns every week. I think that might be the difference. Oh, and blind luck.

Funny thing is, I rarely bet real money on sports. I've been to Vegas a dozen times and only made it to the sports book twice to make a few $10 bets. Two years ago I almost won this league and I used a coin flip to decide most of the games.

If I had bet $100 on every pick I've made so far this season, would I be up? And if so, how much (ballpark)?

I ain’t winning but I’m proud of myself for not missing a week’s worth of picks or more this season.

Well.......

208 total games to date.

123 wins= $12,300 in winnings
85 losses, including the 10% vig= $9,350

You'd be $2,950 to the good.

However, I would think you'd play/bet your top 3-4 top picks as opposed to betting every game. Most prob minimize your losses that way.

You should write down your top 3-4 picks every week and keep track....just to see. If successfull you can share em with us. For a small fee off course.

Instead of betting on "Score's Lock of the Year" once we could all bet............

Wait for it.....
Wait for it.....

Punchsmack's Locks of the Week!!!

Week Fifteen Winner
Pincushion

Punchsmack picked up a game this week. He has a ten game lead with two weeks left in the season.

Congrats Pincushion

quote by TTT above:



Wow, you've got a great bookie.

My bookie charges me a 50% "VIG".

On a $100 bet:

If I lose, I have to pay an additional $50.

If I win, I get my $100 back minus the $50 vig. (so, as he puts it, "it's like you won $100")

Plus there's a $35 handling fee per transaction.

And his travel and out-of-pocket expenses.

And don't forget State, Federal, County, City and School District sales tax.

Week Sixteen Winner

Frenchy

Congrats Frenchy. You had a great fantasy week all the way around

Thanks GM, yes I did. Too bad I didn’t have any money on the line.

nice job french

Congrats to Punchsmack. 2017 DawgTalkers Pick'em Champ.



Spectre takes the weekly winner circle with 10 wins using the MNF tiebreaker.

Punchsmack kept that big lead most of the season, First time that has happened. Thanks everyone for playing.

Congrats Punch!

Thanks. As I look back, winning 3 of the first 4 weeks was the difference. That and selecting against the Browns all season. I avenged my week 17 collapse from two years ago.

I thought we had another wire-to-wire winner?

When do I get my orange blazer? I’m a 42 long.

Congrats Punch!
