Pick em 2021 ideas and disussion thread

yOU KNOW WHAT, I might make a return this year. put me down

Be good to have you back, man, all you need to do is make a pick when the next Pick Em thread goes up... it'll be for Fulton vs Leo in a coupla weeks.

Damn... looks like you ain't played since early in 2018. Best of luck, man.

How many folks played in the last full season? How many didn't pay?

Seems like a way for sketchy mfers to free roll & then create a new account & IP to free roll the next year. But I'd be curious how the honor system has worked out in an anon environment like this forum.

These were 16 team leagues. Everyone paid who was supposed to.

But we are all long time posters on here who play every year and generally trust each other. If this Pick 'Em things ends up having more people than that then the honor system might not be a good idea.

Hmmm. 29th place last year. Not bad for a guy who missed half of the picks.

Not quite sure whether to shame you with a participation trophy or salute you for having the kinda laid back 'who gives a f#ck' attitude I so thoroughly approve of...

The fight schedules were so whacky last year. I mean when they came out of COVID they just bombarded TV airways with cards and I couldn’t keep up.

Yeah, they were all over the place TBF... and I was throwing out as many fights onto the Pick Ems as I could to make up for lost time and also cos you were never quite sure how many of em were gonna be cancelled each week or if everything was gonna shut down again. So we ended up doing shitloads.

Been one of the genral themes on this ideas thread that we slow it back down to more like the 2019 pace... maybe 80ish fights over the full year rather than the 110 odd over 9 months we did last year. Which actually suits my lazy ass rather well anyway.

Yeah I’d be up for a basketball type of schedule as opposed to a baseball schedule as well lol.
