with a name like golfpro71... i am expecting a flurry of tiger challenges next week for Torrey Pines.
Dont let me down! I know you cant go golf heavy all the time or you'll lose some of the mainstream guys who are into golf. but comeon. this is huge. just this one week... do it.

its tiger freekiing woods!

Around here.... the world will stop for 4 days (hopefully 4! maybe 2 haha)

You will have to hit up Victor. He will be in charge of challenges 3 and 4. I think Tiger will make the cut barely and finish well out of the pack.

CHALLENGE #2
There are 9 NBA games on Wednesday. You must pick the winner of each game and rank them from 9 to 1. Points won are determined by winning team’s selected spot. For example, if your 7^th spot wins the game, you earn 7 points. As winner of the previous challenge, polarsi will automatically win the game he chooses for spot 2.

We have 2 contestants that failed to turn in an entry- havonjr and hoovcats. Those 2 are eliminated. We will not eliminate any more tonight but need a winner for the advantage.
It seems like most are relying on Houston, SA, and Toronto.

alrighty sounds good 4 minutes late is clearly far too much ill be back next decade

I will accept your entry.

k thanks I wont be late again

Results?

i think csudak had 2 points less than perfect.
that was best i saw unless i missed something
i think tangplay, da_goat and, drummer were 3 points worse than perfect.
i think da_goat had best tiebreaker among those 3

detroit losing late lead and losing in OT cost several of guys a perfect bracket.

all this unofficial of course and just my quick assesment

Csudak is winner of challenge #2 with 43 points out of 45 total points and only missed a 2 point game which ended up going to OT. There were lots of good scores with 5 others (6 if you count me) scoring 40 or more points.
Csudak earns an advantage for challenge #3. Watch for it to be posted later today by VictorV17. Remember that he will have the next two challenges so send your entries to him.

Challenge 3: Spot On

I would first like to point out that this is my first experience in hosting a game like this and creating my own challenges so I wanted to try something a bit different and see if it works.

This challenge will be of the NBA games for Saturday and Sunday games.

For this challenge you will select any 1 player you wish and select the amount of points they will score in that game. The points you will receive for this challenge will be based on the difference in either direction of your guess and the actual score. (Ex. You guess Curry scores 25, He actually scores 15. You receive a (-10) for the guess. So yes, most scores will probably be negative. UNLESS you guess the number within + or - 4 of the actual score. You will then receive the number of your guess. (Ex. You guess Kyrie scores 20, he scores 19, you receive the 20 you guessed). Exact guesses will be awarded score x 1.5

Also pick 2 teams and do the same for total points each. They do not need to be matched up against each other. You may pick any 2 teams you wish.

The contender with the least amount of points will be eliminated from the contest so choose wisely.

I apologize if you are not a fan of this challenge but I will try to come up with better ones for the next challenges.

Deadline is Saturday by 4:45 PM. Please submit to me and/or golfpro

My advantage in the challenge?

Also, golfpro pretty impressive you were only off by 5 points on the total points in all games
