Subject: Extra $5?????

Is it Bear's Paw Country Club owned by Jack Nicholaus?

-----------------------------------

I'm going to answer this on here, because I don't want to give an advantage to only the person who sent it.  First, it's not Bear Paw Country club.. It is the name of a course inside the video game....  If you figured out the course name, and google searched that course name, you would get the exact picture... You should know for sure if you are right or not.

I'm not going to answer yes or no to guesses, you either get it, or you don't  - and send the answer with your picks... You might want to do two sets of pics, one with $50 and one with $45 if you are not sure if your guess is correct.

The answer to the course, was Grizzly Flats from Golden Tee Golf. Everyone got it correct except for mr_mojo.

Here are the pics:

Awesome...forgot about the tie breakers.

I did as well Nelson.  Now lets see some upsets this weekend!

Temple up by 27 in the 4th.  Thats a nice start to the weekend!

I can't believe more people didn't pick the college games. The amount of pola bucks on those was so small in relation to the favorites in the NFL games...

I was surprised in that too...  I gave them a lower scale value to entice the choosing of them so the bowl games (as terrible as they may be) wouldn't get lost in the NFL games....    I knew that there would be many different strategies in this challenge, and have no idea which one is better than the other, but I figured most of the college games would be picked for sure.....

After the early NFL games have completed, this is the score I have so far.

Arfy        81 + Oak, Cle, Jets, Den
Awags  54 + Det, Cle, Jets
Mojo     14  + Jets          ELIMINATED
Bfk        32                       ELIMINATED
Csu      62 + Det
Nelson 68 + Phi, Jets, Den 

I have for a final score

Arfy 81
Awags  55
Mojo 14
Bfk 32
Csu 63
Nelson 94

Boom...upsets.

That Philadelphia game cost me my fantasy football championship.... The Jets suck.

However, the packers suck worse.....  so all is well.

nelsonba25 has immunity, everyone else is fair game.

I have the votes, anyone wanting to play an idol can from now until 9.

INDIVIDUAL CHALLENGE #6

This challenge will start tomorrow, and will go through Thursday.  Each day, I am going to put up a game for you to pick correctly.  If you pick correctly, you advance to the next day and your chance for immunity is still alive.  If you are wrong, you will be eliminated from a chance to get immunity.

In the likely scenario that more than one player are wrong eliminating all of the players left, the tiebreakers will be used, so you probably don't want to forget them.

For the first elimination round Tuesday night, you can pick either:

The college bowl game against the spread....  Marshall +3.5 or Florida Intl -3.5

OR

NHL :  The winner of the New York Rangers or New Jersey Devils game.

Tiebreaker 1:  Amount of Goals for Minnesota (NHL)
Tiebreaker 2:  Amount of points scored by Marshall (NCAAF)
Tiebreaker 3: Order of submission

And since this is the MUSIC Challenge, if you can tell me who this lacy singer is, you will get 3 points to use once on a bowl spread as a teaser(so you could take Marshall +6.5, or Florida INTL -0.5 in this challenge, or save for tomorrow)


As far as our schedule goes, there will be a vote Friday.....  There will be a challenge Saturday for the NFL and I'm going to allow bothSunday and Monday for voting (due by 6PM Monday) since obviously it is Xmas.    The Final three will be the following week and  we will crown a champion right at the end of 2011.

Picks and bonus question due by 6 tomorrow.

It's been fun guys.  Thanks pola for running this.  Good luck to the final five.
