    2019-2020 NCAA Football Picking Contest

    First pick a winner for all of the games, even the final championship game. You won't know who will win the semifinal playoff games at the time that you make your first round of all picks. But pick the team that you think will be the final champion. Then after the playoff games, again pick the...

    2019-2020 NCAA Football Picking Contest

    Congrats to Skunky as the Regular Season Champion. Congrats to Skunky, kurt, m1a1mg, and cnestg8r for getting 12 points. Like I said, after listening to the prognosticators all week, I was 100% sure of all of my picks. Lost Friday night. Corso said twice on ESPN GameDay that Baylor would win. On...

    2019-2020 NCAA Football Picking Contest

    After listening to the prognosticators all week, I was 100% sure of all of my picks. Then Utah lost last night. Heck, now I'm thinking that I could lose them all, including the Clemson game. 28.5 points is a lot to ignore. I've decided not to change any picks. Corso just said Baylor will beat...

    Eaux, merde! The harder I try, the worse I do. Next time I’m just going to flip a coin. Can’t go by rankings, ESPN talking heads, power indices, Vegas, home/away, you name it.

    :chomp:The G8r game was gr8, the Baylor game was great, and even though I didn't pick LSU, I'm glad they're winning. The talking heads this week were saying that no way Minnesota would win. Well they did. They were also saying no way that Miami. USC and Wisc would win (well right now they are)...

    Red Fish Taco Closed

    We tried Red Fish Taco once. The tacos were so-so. The salsa and the queso were bland. The bartender seemed to have no memory. He asked for our drink order and turned around and asked us again. Same for our dinner orders. He wasn't friendly, never smiled at anyone. You know, it's just...

    Congrats The Bay! BEST Restaurant in Walton County 2019

    We love The Bay for lunch, especially when the sun is shining. Getting a breeze off the actual bay, watching the boats arrive, seeing the children play on the beach. Very relaxing atmosphere. The waiters and the food are great!

    Well, I guess you all know by now that FSU fired their football coach. This should help the attendance at FSU games. I remember the days when FSU, Miami, and Florida were three of the top five teams in the country.

    My family is sad that the Gators lost. My sister and cnestg8r got engineering degrees at UF, and I got math degrees there. My brother is a big Gator fan too. ESPN GameDay picked FSU to win, they were unanimous for Utah that I should have picked because they were ranked #9, the points killed me...

    We had a system for playing Jai-Alai when we lived in Gainesville, FL, by keeping up with the players in the Gainesville Sun. We'd win just about every day at home. Then we'd drive to Ocala every once in a while to actually play. We'd lose using our system. We were on a tight budget, so as soon...

    2019-2020 NCAA Football Picking Contest

    I think the points games rely too much on Vegas, and the people in Vegas are not sports experts as Finebaum said on his show this week. Does it make sense to divide the plus/minus by some factor, say 2? I don't like points games, but with no points the slate of teams is just a boring bunch of...

    Yes, congrats to aTmMom for her wins! Congrats to Skunky for 12 wins. That hasn't happened to me very often. Sometime when I'm bored, I'll have to research that.
