    Some of us bet to make games a little more interesting, or just play fantasy to do the same. Some of us have actual problems with gambling. Sounds like you fall into the second category. I'm sitting up 900% on my initial risk since the start of the season myself. I kind of doubt someone with your limitations can boast that.

    WOW, nice year man!

    I play with small amounts of money and haven't deposited in two years because I stay up. I do it more to test theories that it's rigged than to make money. But I'm happy that I stay up and would certainly stop if I had to keep making deposits every year or week.

    I would love a challenge next year using bobbles book keeper. We would all learn from each other for sure. I have my hunches or whatever and they're serving me fairly well, but I would love to get extra edges that I don't have to get the hard way

    CBS has a setting in the fantasy sites to run a pick 5. I'm in one. Basically you pick 5 games against the spread that CBS posts on tuesday each week. Picks due by 930am sunday. I would pay the $100 site fee next season if i could get 10 rats interested enough to put picks in each week. We could make a trophy or something silly for the winner/s. It would be for fun and bragging rights which is much more important than money anyway.

    edit: added bonus is all picks are revealed ONLY after that game starts. So no one sees any one else's picks until theirs are locked in.
    I don't hold Grudges. It's counterproductive.

    I'm down if others get in. Sometimes go though life events that throw me off being consistent, but I'm down for sure. A running gambler thread definitely keeps me motivated too. The shit talk and having people see the conspiracy shit I notice keeps me motivated.

    I'm more in your class of bettor. I started this year with $50, so I'm happy but by no means making big headway.

    Bobblehead, I would definitely participate.
