Yep

 

I now have 12 of the 19 picks for today... 30min to go!

[bowld]

[Dylan]

got mine right?>

 

Yup, looks like quite a few people forgot today was a double header. I'll be posting picks in 5 minutes

[Dylan]

You should leave the 2nd game open for picking in case others forgot it was a day game

 

Only game 1 picks are posted now. Members can change/send me their picks up till game 2's first pitch.

 

I'm going out to dinner with my grandparents tonight so I might be delayed posting game 2 picks

LET’S GO BLUE JAYS!!!

[Dylan]

Congrats to dmrich28 and Abomination for winning the first point of the playoffs!

[Dylan]

Can "no home runs" only be picked 3 times too

 

 

Yes

[Dylan]

No HR's??? Gay.

 

only 1 point

[GD]

I'm just not gonna pick No HRs out of principle lol, don't like that

[Dylan]

but if the jays don't hit a home run it really makes everything pointless..

 

example: the first game lol

 

You can only pick it 3 times and if you win once with a player its automatically twice as many points, minimal

[Dylan]

That's the excitement of it all! Somedays there are winners, other days there aren't

 

It won't be an option for next year's regular season.. Since there have been lots of games without hrs lately I thought we should add it. Need people to win some points.

[Dylan]

Picking closed?

 

First pitch

[Dylan]

3 people haven't made their picks today.

[Dylan]

[jays_fever]

A f***ing hell..im so out of the loop.

[Dylan]

A f***ing hell..im so out of the loop.

 

If you think you won't be around for the start of the games you can send me your picks for the entire week, and change them if you want that day.. just to be safe.

[Dylan]

For the 2nd round, will tiebreakers be broken by regular season points or the previous rounds points? Or both combined?

 

I was going to go with just regular season points, but I like the combined idea!

[Dylan]

This is why we need the no home run option lol... congrats NorthOf49.

 

Rather terrible start today.

[G-Snarls]

This is why we need the no home run option lol... congrats NorthOf49.

 

Rather terrible start today.

 

I can't believe 0 HR in 2 games today. Especially with one game vs Phil "Home Run" Hughes

 

f*** me. No, wait, f*** this s***** team.

[Dylan]

Going no home run tomorrow and I'll probably get f***ed in the ass

 

Doesn't help having Jose and Rasmus out

[Dylan]
