There have been some games (Seneca/Forsyth for instance) that I should have never posted.

One of my favorites was 3-7 Union losing by 1 point to 9-0 Gateway 🤣🤣 and then the next week, gateway beats a team by 2 TDs, who had turboed Union. Probably came down to matchups position by position in that game but just so unpredictable.

Lathrop-East Buchanan was my worst. An 80 percent game and nobody took the bait.

I make a list as follows (these based on my opinions not computer stuff): Post all the 50/50 games. Post the vast majority of 60/40 ones then study from there trying to find, as you do, the potential sneakers/sucker bets.

What I have found is my 70 percent games favorites win about 89 percent of the time. The 80 percent games favorite wins like 96.5 percent. 90 and 100 percent games are never posted.

This is why everyone will see, moving forward, fewer games in particularly the regular season but HOPEFULLY (no promises as this is nowhere near my career just a deficit-financed seasonal hobby) the slates will be more competitive i.e. few or no games where everyone picks the same winner.

Right out of the gate folks may question me putting Kearney at Warrensburg in this week. There is an unknown factor in this one which is unlikely to verify but definitely could. As you said, Chaotic, this game is far from predictable.

I genuinely try to pick games that I think will be close or are a rematch game or a game where it may appear to be a mismatch but there are other factors at play that should make it competitive. And I completely whiff a lot of the time, but I think those 2 out of state games being decided by 1 point showed I can get it right sometimes 🤣🤣

Haha if this was predictable I'd never bother with it indeed!

Thanks. I give you a hard time about things, but I do appreciate the contest.

I know it doesnt really matter because I think you are going off of wins, but how are there differences in our loss totals at the top? Shouldnt our numbers be the same because of picking all the same games?

I’m already working(in my head) on tweaking some things for next year. I have a few different ideas to shake things up. Will probably have to involve a spread sheet instead of doing everything by hand 🤣

So if y’all are tied in wins, I just have it in alphabetical order but it’s still a tie. And as far as the differences in losses, there have been some weeks where I or others have submitted picks after a Thursday contest so we ended up being short a game. It hasn’t happened often, but it has happened.
