| SexyJoeSutton: what do you think of this idea: SexyJoeSutton: like me, you and g SexyJoeSutton: on my website SexyJoeSutton: have a little game KingPhillyD: your website? SexyJoeSutton: where we take maybe 5 or 10 college games, i haven't decided how many...each week SexyJoeSutton: and me, you, and g predict the final score of each one, and put our comments down KingPhillyD: sounds fun SexyJoeSutton: and our points go like this: SexyJoeSutton: priority #1: guessing who will win SexyJoeSutton: #2, point spread SexyJoeSutton: #3, total points SexyJoeSutton: I thought of this on the toilet in Plato's the other night SexyJoeSutton: I think if I tweaked it, I could get a good scoring system KingPhillyD: good deal SexyJoeSutton: and we'd have a Swami-like fantasy game of our own KingPhillyD: i'll have fun with the comments SexyJoeSutton: you want in? SexyJoeSutton: yeah, i know KingPhillyD: of course KingPhillyD: i live for that kind of stuff SexyJoeSutton: yeah, i know SexyJoeSutton: here's what I see: SexyJoeSutton: we get together and decide maybe 4 games that absolutely have to be done that week SexyJoeSutton: and then we go in turn and each pick two that we personally want SexyJoeSutton: like florida-miami would definitely get picked SexyJoeSutton: but then like you could pick notre dame-northwestern, i could pick osu-texas tech, etc KingPhillyD: ah KingPhillyD: good deal KingPhillyD: g will always pick maryland KingPhillyD: but we all make picks for those ones, right? SexyJoeSutton: yeah, i think they might always be in the "half to" SexyJoeSutton: yeah...well, we all make picks for all of them KingPhillyD: sounds good SexyJoeSutton: ui didn't explain it right KingPhillyD: we doin' it for this week? SexyJoeSutton: sure. when do the games start SexyJoeSutton: is it exhibition? KingPhillyD: when do you want the predictions KingPhillyD: and what games should we do SexyJoeSutton: sorry, i was just pasting and sending all of this conversatino to g SexyJoeSutton: hold on, let me look at a list SexyJoeSutton: maybe this week should be our "preseason game"KingPhillyD: not in college KingPhillyD: thursday, games start SexyJoeSutton: yeah, we can start this week SexyJoeSutton: by the way, get a season prediction thing ready too SexyJoeSutton: like who you think will be in the final, where maryland will finish, anything you think should be there KingPhillyD: ah SexyJoeSutton: if you have time, of course KingPhillyD: i do SexyJoeSutton: what games are on this week? KingPhillyD: first game, KingPhillyD: colorado st. - virginia KingPhillyD: friday, fresno vs. wisconsin SexyJoeSutton: it's gonna be so hard to pick the ten we want each week, but we'll have to if we don't want to just write a sentence on each one KingPhillyD: over the weekend, most notably, ohio st. vs. texas tech and FSU vs. Iowa st. SexyJoeSutton: ooh SexyJoeSutton: i'm getting a fitted oklahoma hat this weekend SexyJoeSutton: and the point spread will be close in significance to the winner SexyJoeSutton: so if they win by one, and you picked the other team, you're not as heavily penalized SexyJoeSutton: you won't get less than the guy who picked the right team to win, but by 40 SexyJoeSutton: i'll be tweaking it, of course, but i'll have it ready by the first games KingPhillyD: ok |
| SexyJoeSutton: to get used to it, and make sure the system makes sense KingPhillyD: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/schedules SexyJoeSutton: especially since there probably are less games KingPhillyD: we can do all of 'em, KingPhillyD: there's only 7 SexyJoeSutton: yeah, this is a good preseason week KingPhillyD: want us to email what we write to you? SexyJoeSutton: sure, that will work SexyJoeSutton: [email protected] SexyJoeSutton: and it doesn't have to be all at once SexyJoeSutton: i won't look at your picks until i pick mine either KingPhillyD: haha KingPhillyD: ok, KingPhillyD: and the next week KingPhillyD: will be big SexyJoeSutton: isnt' vick's little brother on the scene now?

SexyJoeSutton: let's look at some of the possible "definite picks" KingPhillyD: that one for sure KingPhillyD: maryland - ND for sure KingPhillyD: you can list what games we picked to predict, as well SexyJoeSutton: maybe central florida-penn state if there's nothing better SexyJoeSutton: huh? KingPhillyD: you know, like, the main 4, KingPhillyD: then the two each from each one of us SexyJoeSutton: yeah, i will KingPhillyD: ok SexyJoeSutton: there will be a showcase of some kind KingPhillyD: i nominate LSU at Virginia Tech KingPhillyD: and i'd give UVA-FSU the nod over the Penn St. game SexyJoeSutton: yeah, me too SexyJoeSutton: acc will be more heavily represented i bet SexyJoeSutton: just out of maryland and fl st. SexyJoeSutton: haha....how about east carolina-duke? KingPhillyD: i'm a big big ten fan, though SexyJoeSutton: a chance to break the streak KingPhillyD: uh, maybe that can be your personal pick KingPhillyD: but it's not a sure thing SexyJoeSutton: this is going to work so well, i bet...you like big 10, i like big 12 SexyJoeSutton: g likes acc? SexyJoeSutton: big 10? KingPhillyD: acc SexyJoeSutton: auburn-usc KingPhillyD: good nominee KingPhillyD: good personal pick KingPhillyD: i like syracuse-BYU SexyJoeSutton: definitely better than duke SexyJoeSutton: oh yeah, KingPhillyD: well, we should get 2 personal picks SexyJoeSutton: we do, don't we?
