As if you aren't preoccupied enough with a 5Dimes Contest, BetJamaica Contests, Sunday Night and Monday Night Contests on the forum, Fantasy Football Leagues, and Survivor Pools.....here comes another distraction to keep you away from your wife even more :mj08:

With Week #1 games under our belt and now a thorough understanding of how the rest of the season will go :mj07: you have an opportunity to showcase your talent in full view of the professional team at MJ's. You can win money with your book, accolades after all the trash talking from your fantasy league buddies, and vault to guru status from your survivor pool cronies.....but here all you win after subjecting yourself to public humiliation on a weekly basis is the distinction of being MJ's NFL Contest Champion. No money :nooo: No congratulatory call from Art Schlister :nooo: No 900 account contracts from Jim Feist & Idiots :nono: Nothing but the respect you'll receive from the number one team on the net :clap: Imagine the feeling of having your name mentioned in the same breath as some of Mad Jack's finest.;)

Contest Rules


- Each member will begin with a $2000 bankroll
- You may pick up to 3 sides or totals (or combo) /week. No buying points, ML's, teasers or parlays
- Each wager will be @+100 (no juice)
- Current lines on Wednesday's at Pinnacle will be used
- Each wager may be a MAXIMUM of 10% of your available account
- Must make a minimum of 25 wagers to be eligible for "Rock-star status"
- Winner will be member with most $$$ in account
- Contest will end at the end of the regular season

COYOTEBLUE had all the right intentions for a fun contest at the beginning of last season. Unfortunately we had some of the contestants abuse every ounce of common sense in money management and risk their entire bankroll on the first game. It quickly got out of hand and ruined what had the potential for being an entertaining contest. We will be using leashes to control your freedom this year :SIB

I will post the lines and standings each Wednesday.

Sample of my picks this week.....

Available $2000

Wager #1 NYG +3 for 200 (10% of available amount)
Wager #2 (Available amount $1800) Det +9.5 for $180 (10% of available amount)
Wager #3 (Available amount $1620) KC +10.5 for 162 (10% of available amount)

Of course you don't have to wager 10% on any given play. That's just the MAX you're allowed.

Let's have some fun :toast:

Comments and Suggestions are more than welcome :)

oh boy good luck with this contest. I ran one years ago that was a lot easier than this and all i did was email people almost every play they made telling them they were making a mistake. To think someone is gonna bet 200 dollars on a game (10 percent) and then realize they cant bet more than 180 on the next will be a miracle.
I do have some questions tho.
1. where do you post ur picks?
2. can i post my picks at any time before the game?
Thats it

Thanks for the well-wishes. I've run contests in the past also. I do not anticipate many complications from our English-reading members.:com: I'll assume that's all of them or they wouldn't find their way into the thread. I hear what you're saying but really don't plan on e-mailing anybody. Belive me......if any member gets a temporary brain lock or is mathematically-challenged.....there are more "site detectives" here than the NYPD. Any miscues can be cleared up within the thread before days end :) I'm sure more mistakes will be made by me in tallying up the weekly stats than from the team.:dizzy: :poke

Plays can be posted in this thread any time before kickoff. GL in the contest.
