Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, 'Rain Man,' look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho'. Not retarded. You know Tom Hanks, 'Forrest Gump.' Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain't retarded. Peter Sellers, "Being There." Infantile, yes. Retarded, no. You went full retard, man. Never go full retard. You don't buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, "I Am Sam." Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed...
I shall hang my head in shame for the remainder of the week and will come back next week and actually include a beer in my selection. I was at least batting 500 when I included a beer

i originally put last week's results up. then changed to this week's, but somehow it did not save. it has done that to me on six pick's too and it's really frustrating.
anyway, i had you correct on the current master and hopefully it shows now.

Except the game is to pick against the spread... because otherwise, why would games like Vols-Ducks be on there? Everyone knows Oregon's going to blow them out... it's just a matter of how much by :P

I'll also take this opportunity to say thanks for a few things:
1. For keeping track of the whole contest (must be time-consuming)
2. For making me learn how to interpret betting lines (never cared about it before, but now that there's a competition for no money I'm all about it)
3. For yet more lighthearted posts and excellent beer picks

This keeps getting me. I run a small pick 'em at the office and we don't pick against the spread. I thought I was 5-1 as well, but looks like I was 2-4. This is why I don't gamble. All I want to do it pick winners.
Log in or register to post comments about the Virginia Tech Hokies
I'm there with you horse. I'm embarrased to say I have no idea how I did without the spread, but definitely pulled a full Kiffin or maybe even a Full Brown (may be too soon since they were able to win last week) this week with a supersweet 1-5 against the spread...

Something's wrong with mine. While my record is terrible, I haven't missed a week of pics and should be somewhere around 50%. Here's my pics from last week:
Another 3-3 week! YAY! I'm average as fuck, y'all!

While I appreciate being listed among the overall leaders, I believe you skipped a line and Leonard should be getting the love at 61%. My 2nd 6-0 week just brought me back above .500.

Thank all you for reading and playing. Lesson learned for most of you dont gamble.
I will be doing a pick em pool via yahoo, as doing one like this for bowl season is a pain in the ass.
Congrats to 2HokiesIn1, Amott, SpiderHokie. Considering my late season washout, you're welcome! Oh well, it's all fun and games! Thanks to BCO for doing pick 6, we all know you bust your butt for us, and we appreciate it. And VPIHokieME, I think we all owe you a big thank you for your always inspiring visual picks....perhaps you can find some flimsy excuse to post more pictures.

Thanks IET..I'm glad you enjoyed my picks. I just hope I can make it through the entire season next year (I started late this time around because I'm relatively new to TKP). It might be a tough act to follow.
Log in or register to post comments about the Virginia Tech Hokies
Thanks for doing this BCO! It was my first season participating (I read along in past years though), and I'm proud to have just gotten the "participation award" for playing every week. But to be honest, I'm pretty proud of 51% on the season too. I know it wouldn't win me any money in Vegas. But damn, ATS is hard! Especially when half the time your heart is trying to tell you what to do (can we exclude VT from the picks next year please?!?). Anyway, your time is greatly appreciated. This was a lot of fun.

Thanks BCO!!!!! Glad it was here this season, and glad I could make picks every week. Even had to pick from St Andrews for the second week, but we all have to make concessions.
Log in or register to post comments about the Virginia Tech Hokies
Fun times, thanks BCO. I am quite proud of myself for maintaining 50%, instead of overanalyzing and ending up with a pathetic overall record. Moral of the story - don't take gambling advice from me.

Still on for picks this week?
yes, joe will post it for me on Thursday.
Sorry to hear you've been relegated to 1988, connectivity-wise. Look forward to wk 2. I think I was 4-2, but will await the results.
tonight, hopefully ... I think cable is back.

As always check behind me. It isn't automated, I do it by hand so shit happens and I makes mistakes.
JLM, you are actually 3-3, corrected on the master.
Good Lord, I did terribly...
Week Two is in the books
a few of you busted it big at 5-1: 2HokiesIn1, hokiesAllDaWay, Rocco & SpiderHokie
another went full Kiffin on us: VMI Hokie
Check behind me, I do my best.
Ill wait til week four or so to start looking at overall, but a couple of you are off to a fantastic start.
Check it out. Dustin Hoffman, 'Rain Man,' look retarded, act retarded, not retarded. Counted toothpicks, cheated cards. Autistic, sho'. Not retarded. You know Tom Hanks, 'Forrest Gump.' Slow, yes. Retarded, maybe. Braces on his legs. But he charmed the pants off Nixon and won a ping-pong competition. That ain't retarded. Peter Sellers, "Being There." Infantile, yes. Retarded, no. You went full retard, man. Never go full retard. You don't buy that? Ask Sean Penn, 2001, "I Am Sam." Remember? Went full retard, went home empty handed...
I shall hang my head in shame for the remainder of the week and will come back next week and actually include a beer in my selection. I was at least batting 500 when I included a beer
haha, time for a hot streak!
you missed my week 2 picks though I regrettably went 2-4
thanks will fix.
I'm a solid 4-2 for the second week in a row! Much better than last year's ugly four consecutive 3-3 weeks. So far, so good.
I should be 3 and 2 this week...I missed on Wake and USCe
I am an idiot didnt pick the UVA game
I should be 6-6 as I went 4-2 in week one and 2-4 in week two. In week 1, you have me as tbhokie instead of tbhokie1
derp, will fix on master.
Well you got my number right. Which sucks, because I picked like an A$$ Hat last week.
week 3 in the books, overall pretty solid by most.
Bust it BIG finishing 5-1 were, dw79er, hokiesAllDaWay , HorseOnATreadmill, InEnemyTerritory & Shakeitallabout
Welp of the Week at 0-6, MsSusieCue
please check behind me.
It looks like you repeated my record from week 2 when I went 3-3. I picked all six winners this week.
http://www.thekeyplay.com/comment/53351#comment-53351
this is against the spread. 3-3.
3-3, I only went half Kiffin this week! Here's to maybe even crossing that ever elusive .500 mark this week!
Good job by me to throw away two decent weeks.
Think this site needs an automatic running table similar to how Yahoo/ESPN/Roanoke Times Fearless Forecasting does it so it doesn't have to be done manually.
then you wouldn't be able to make comments and be snarky with team names.
And I do so love being able to go "Ahahahahahahahahahaha... Oregon"

I think my results didn't get added from this past week. Not a solid showing, only 2-4 if my math is right.
I absolutely went 5-1 last week.
this is against the spread ... so, you didn't
Bah. I always state that I'm picking straight up.
No matter. I'll do spread next week.
Except the game is to pick against the spread... because otherwise, why would games like Vols-Ducks be on there? Everyone knows Oregon's going to blow them out... it's just a matter of how much by :P
i should grade yours differently, because you say so. got it.
papilgee doesn't follow the rules

3. For yet more lighthearted posts and excellent beer picks
Thanks, i do appreciate it. I do this as much for me as anyone, so why not let other have fun at it too.
Yeah, most of the big games aren't ones you'd want to bet, but playing along for free to see what would happen, if you did ...
Can you double check me for this week? I believe I should have been 5-1.
picks are against the spread.
This keeps getting me. I run a small pick 'em at the office and we don't pick against the spread. I thought I was 5-1 as well, but looks like I was 2-4. This is why I don't gamble. All I want to do it pick winners.

check to make sure i am right.
4 and 2... Wonders never cease. Can't believe I finally wasn't 1-5 or 2-4!
3-3 because I had UGA -3.5 and Ohio State -7.5. That's why I don't gamble.
As long as I stay above 50%, I'm happy. Those are pretty good odds for gambling.
As much as I like the 6 and 0 call out I must correct you and tell you that I did pick Wisconsin over Tosu
oh didnt realize we were doing spread and not straight picks
Damn, I forgot how the B1G isn't as great when they hit their conference schedule.
Thanks for keeping track of all of this!
this is awesome! So glad you keep up with this. I think I'll keep playing.
Yeah, thanks for doing this BeerControl. It's a lot of fun!
my pleasure. the only thing i don't like is adding up the score, haha
We should develop a simple little voting system for the site so that isn't necessary anymore.
I run an NFL pick em pool in my office every week and it is freakin TERRIBLE. Keeping up with the money, making sure people get their picks in on time, and compiling the results is a huge pain in my ass, and we only have 12 people. I don't know how you do it.
4 and 2. Not bad for my first outing.
Not thinking too much is paying off....maybe I don't suffer from low testosterone after all....my guy-ness is ok!
Griffer and Mama Giraffe went a perfect 6-0.
No one was awful this week, so you will not be shamed.

but i really like this game :D
also, well done MrsDozer! I feel like I'm in good company
0-6?? But since the hokies moved up in rankings -
Pretty sure I have the worst record of those that have done it every week and I share the sentiment. This is all in good fun and I'm glad most of my picks are wrong, because that usually means chaos.
Balls. Before the last two weeks, I'd gone 3-3 or 4-2 every week. Now I'm below .500
Is it too late to get in on this? I'm modestly good at this stuff.
it's all fun. never too late.
Vegas is good. I started the season slow. Picked it up. And have now regressed back to the mean... 50%.
Maybe I should make my picks when I'm only semi-coherent in the middle of night more often....

Big UPS to Amott who was a perfect 6-0 this week.
VPIhokieME was his opposite at 0-6 though I wholeheartedly approve of how you let me know of your pic by your photo choices.
For the year:
A 3 headed monster leading the charge (amott, dwalt88, InEnemyTerritory) at 63% with VTJawo 62% and Rocco 61% right behind.
I had a suspicion that going from my best week of the year (5-1) straight to my worst week was a possibility :(
you're lucky I'm not a superstitious person...I plan on keeping to that format for my pics ;)
for everyone's sake let's hope I don't go 0-fer two weeks in a row
Did I pick too late to be included?
http://www.thekeyplay.com/comment/76128#comment-76128
will fix in the next batch, my bad.
I hated the lines completely and somehow went 5-1. That means I'm going to feel great about my picks this week and whiff.
I've never been referred to at any point in my life as any part of a three-headed monster......not sure if that's good or bad.
Knew I should've went to Vegas.
Back to back 5-1 weeks. Much like DJ Coles, I'm slowly rounding into shape as the season goes along.

yeah me too buddy...2-4 isn't glorious but at least it's better than 1-5 and 0-6. I've accomplished at least one of those...
I'm pretty ecstatic sitting anywhere above 50% given the insane nature of college football.
Something's wrong with mine. While my record is terrible, I haven't missed a week of pics and should be somewhere around 50%. Here's my pics from last week:
Another 3-3 week! YAY! I'm average as fuck, y'all!

While I appreciate being listed among the overall leaders, I believe you skipped a line and Leonard should be getting the love at 61%. My 2nd 6-0 week just brought me back above .500.

Edit: just realized this was from 2 weeks ago lol
I picked as well and went 3-3 this week. Slightly lowers my % but overall I won't complain.

Missed me again: http://www.thekeyplay.com/comment/92080#comment-92080
Went 2-4, worst week yet this season... womp wompppp.
I had to do something to keep from dropping below .500 for the year!
Let's see if we can back it up and not have the PBFU (Post-Birdie Eff Up)
Welp!!!
My apologies. I was hurrying thru last night and derped badly.
I'll correct tonight, 2Hokiesin1, you'll drop to 58% and a tie for second. Shakeit moves to 56% and spider to 55%
Aww man, exactly 50% for the year. That puts a lot of pressure on this last week to finish above .500.
There will be no update this week, I'm about to go out of town for the week. I will be (half assing) the 6 pick tonight however.
Results have been tabulated ... will be posted tonight. Winner decided by 1%

Thanks to BCO for doing pick 6, we all know you bust your butt for us, and we appreciate it. And VPIHokieME, I think we all owe you a big thank you for your always inspiring visual picks....perhaps you can find some flimsy excuse to post more pictures.
Thanks IET..I'm glad you enjoyed my picks. I just hope I can make it through the entire season next year (I started late this time around because I'm relatively new to TKP). It might be a tough act to follow.
Yay for not last place!
Granted she started midway through the season...MRSDOZER beat me by 1%. This will haunt me until next year.
Eh, I think you may have her on the video front though, always have that going for you.
Thanks for doing this BCO! It was my first season participating (I read along in past years though), and I'm proud to have just gotten the "participation award" for playing every week. But to be honest, I'm pretty proud of 51% on the season too. I know it wouldn't win me any money in Vegas. But damn, ATS is hard! Especially when half the time your heart is trying to tell you what to do (can we exclude VT from the picks next year please?!?). Anyway, your time is greatly appreciated. This was a lot of fun.
3rd place and above 50% on the year?
I'm impressed with myself.
Thanks for doing this every week, BCO!
Thanks BCO!!!!! Glad it was here this season, and glad I could make picks every week. Even had to pick from St Andrews for the second week, but we all have to make concessions.
Thanks BCO. I slipped up at the end, but I hope to see everyone in the bowl pick'em.
Fun times, thanks BCO. I am quite proud of myself for maintaining 50%, instead of overanalyzing and ending up with a pathetic overall record. Moral of the story - don't take gambling advice from me.
my pleasure erryone.
46% on the year. I suppose that's better than my one fantasy team that is 3-11
