Good idea.

Let’s start by looking at what a “ confidence pool” is.

It depends on how confident you are in each one of your picks...Thus they are not all “ equal”.

As for CBS or Vegas? Like you say, we can all oogle, or google. Even just the words “ confidence pool” ...

Making picks for real $$ is a lot different than picking who will win the game, or not.

A “ confidence pool” serves to bridge the gap, and can involve a bit more effort.

So...to answer your question...Unless I am traveling for biz, I wager every day. Making picks for real $$ forces me one into a much deeper look at things...including looking several seasons back...And only choosing 1-4 games a day...whether baseball or hockey, whether North, South, East or West...

I'm not talking about the confidence pool, I have no interest in doing things that way. I don't gamble on sports, I do this because it is fun and keeps my interested in games I might not otherwise care about. The "splaining" I was referring to is the reference to Kurt and myself,

Next year, thinking AT and Kurt gonna have a heap of “ figuring” raining down on them, as there will be no benefit to when you post...

( pretty EZ to figure out what that advantage is) And maybe you’d like me to ‘ splain it...( maybe not)


I don't post my picks or make my picks with anybody else in mind. If you are gambling for money I hope it is going better for you than this little pick-em contest is.

Bac- I appreciate your enthusiasm. I invite you to hatch some sort of bowl picking contest after this week if you wish. I think everyone would appreciate that.

Betting money is a no-no if for no other reason that it is probably illegal to use a forum like this to facilitate the activity. I am sure Kurt has enough headaches in his life to not need racketeering charges being added to the list:banned::lol:

BTW...will post re: Confidence Pool a different day, a different time.

( It is NOT gambling...it is mere decision making...just a modicum of difference from picking the teams... )
