4/6 results, got done by a late Hibernian goal in the Rangers match.

So Leicester and Hibernian both won? Those were the 2 picks that flopped?

I'll get you update homie. Were the picks all in before the matches started?

I shall make a prediction that next year in the NFL there will be a rule change, and the "horse collar" tackle will be extended. It will range from just above the ankles to the shoulder pads.

So you’re just picking favorites across the board?

Not beating spreads or confidence picks or anything just L’s and W’s?

Eyeballing it all of your picks are favored.

[MERIT] 12-27-2018 09:07 PM

OP will get cleaned up and be way shorter after this weekends/New Years NFL and MMA.

Leicester won 2-1, Hibernian scored in the last minute so they drew with Rangers 1-1 hence flop result as it was a draw.

All predictions posted before kick off.

Might want to work out the percentage properly ;)

with those picks you could’ve gotten yourself fed and watered and watched football all day in a casino and left with more $$$ than you came in with for a nice looking hooker - if you bet big enough your room would’ve been comped too

Got you updated homie. I'm awaiting the end of the UFC 232 PPV to post my results for the day.

[MERIT] 12-30-2018 01:53 AM

I went 5 / 8 for UFC 232. Not too shabby. Why didn't I pick Cheisa and Nunes!

Gonna wait until the all of todays NFL games finish to post my stats for today.

Thought about changing my PFL 11 pick of Magomed Magomedkerimov > Ray Cooper, but I think I'm gonna stick with it. Probably gonna bite me in the ass though.

lol you’re going to give yourself credit for picking a bunch of favorites?

[MERIT] 12-30-2018 06:57 PM

Still awaiting the Colts/Titans result, but I went 13/15 today [Saints and Packers flopped].

OccultHawk, you know why you're not welcome in this thread and what you need to do if you want to change that. Until then, proceed . . .

The Batlord 12-30-2018 07:11 PM

Is Merit trying to game the system on a sports betting thread with no actul money on the line? I'm sensing a previously undisclosed gambling addiction.

Zhanteimi 12-30-2018 07:14 PM

After not following the Steelers for the whole season, it was sad to see them win and yet not make the playoffs because the Browns choked. I look forward to not following football next year, too!

“I’m 13/15...”

Nobody counts bets w/out considering the spread. That’s embarrassing even for a music forum.

The Browns didn’t choke. The Ravens played aggressive defense and shut them down.

Colts panned out, so I went 14/16 and overtook Fluff for 2nd place, but Kiiii remains king. I'm pretty sure that Akai will join him at 100% after the Mayweather fight.

If both Kiiii and Akai are at 100%, but Kiiii has more correct predictions [2/2 vs 1/1], he will get sole ownership of the #1 spot, rather than them being tied at #1, despite both being at 100%.

And just like in real life, OH gets no play and Batty is there to jerk him off, while Mord roots it on.

Key 12-30-2018 10:58 PM

Akai and I both added a correct prediction to our tallies following this morning's Floyd Mayweather fight.

Congrats to Akai on joining Kiiii in the 100% club homie! His 2 correct predictions to your 1 will give him sole ownership of the #1 spot, but you will move me and Fluff down in the rankings as you take #2.

The PFL 11 event kicks off soon. I will update my tally when the card ends.

Cuthbert 12-31-2018 04:55 PM

Thoughts on having a minimum number of predictions before having a ranking? There's nothing stopping Ki or Akai from not touching this thread again and staying in the top spots. Just a thought.

Everton > Leicester
Arsenal > Fulham
Tottenham > Cardiff
Aston Villa > QPR
West Brom > Blackburn
