The 19th Annual Bookie Challenge NFL FINAL FOUR ®©™

Thank goodness there are only 4 different combinations of Best Bets .. Which leaves 8 different combo's for a parlay .. So what are the probabilities of getting them all right I used Magic's quantum computer to figure that out. Only took an hour


So Cuz. Can't remember. Is it still only one point per best bet? Didn't you give 2 points per best bets in the Conference finals in the past or is that just a bad dream I'm remembering ...

you must have connected to one of my older computers instead of the fast ones!!

Here is a quick copy and paste of those rules

NFL CONFERENCE CHAMPIONSHIP (3rd Round - 2 games - possible 3 points total)
- Pick a best bet winner for each game - 1 point per best bet for a total possible 2 points
- Pick both winners (all must cover) and an Over/Under - total of 1 point for the parlay

So the best you can do is get 3 points

Of course when you get a perfecta doing these picks you would rather have 10 points but then the ones who didn't get a perfecta would be glad you didn't get the 10 points

Of course I will be happy with the 3 points and then all the rest of you get a Goose Egg so I can get closer to the top of the stats page

Well I'm not picking the Rams to win tomorrow.......BUT to lose by a FG

Oh and your picks aren't better than mine either cuzz (well that is what I am hoping for anyway)

Time will tell but Better was meant to mean better than MY picks last week

And aren't these over unders pretty low for The Final Four

Well I am also hoping for some points this week.......in fact I need all 3 and my Magical Dice is supposed to make that happen

You will have to blame Vegas on those numbers since I have used the same place to get these since this the beginning of the B.C.

Not to mention college basketball lines always end with a game winning half-court fling at the buzzer

WTF... Why isn't anyone making their picks?

It seems to be that way all the time.......only early picks are mine and Craigs every week.

I expect Crystalballs here just before kickoff today

I think our BC attorney general is just waiting for next season or another one of her last second SB sunday wins

We sure better pick up some new members next season that actually send in the Chips AND make picks so we don't have to waste time keeping stats for the ones that drop out as soon as they figure they won't win for some goofy reason.

I am hoping R&R can pick up new members before we start the 20th Annual......so we need the rest of you to try to do that too.



(lol Blue Oyster Cult at the casino.....ok it was just a commercial before the FOX channel game)

OK lets all change our picks to the ones CB picked

You know it is ok as long as your picks are one minute before the kickoff.......or a couple days before

BUT thanks for praying for me to get a perfecta and if you can do the same for my SB picks so I can be back to back Champ
........eventually this game will start.....after 2 hours of these pregame tales

The real question is did SA VIKING win with NO minus a field goal
