Nice


I'm proactively blaming Tom for my losses.

Posting to quote later.


My 4-4 seems unlikely to win.


Order of names entered checks out.
Karma bit me in the butt for laughing at Cokeboy trying to keep all of RED's entries tagged. Confirming them was probably a bigger PITA. Thanksalot, RED!

WTH? Is Earl on sabbatical?

Thanks! Appreciate the help with name-checking.

RED's entries were a little more difficult to enter, but he definitely helped me fill this thing, so I can't be too upset with him.


😃


Now I get 0-0.


If 9-9 pays, I'm buying a lotto ticket.


You guys are looking at it all wrong. I'm thankful my 8-8 splashed in this pool where it has a chance to make it out alive rather than in the SB pool.

I can't believe I'm the optimist in this thing.

Come to think of it, I may well have had 8-8 in the SB as well.


I went and checked last years scores with the intention of reassuring you guys that you'll be fine with duplicates, but no, you're all screwed. Only happened 3 times last year. Sorry about your luck.


One's enough, if it's the right one!

I mean, Drake will probably get to the next weekend by beating Iowa State 84-74 or something.

Orrrrrr......Drake is 1 and done, and no scores end in 4-4. That would really suck for you. Lol

I am quite fortunate. I highly expect to get blanked in the squares pool but i think i hit the lottery of dating and will take that over squares any day.


Was fully expecting 0-0, 3-3 & 7-7

I shipped Earl up to Wisconsin to watch tape of the 2023 NFL season in Fat Mike's barn so he'll be ready for 2024 SWAMI. 😃


Smart!

We stayed at a B&B in the UP several years ago that had a few miniature donkeys. If Earl had let me know that he was going to be in the neighborhood, I might have been able to fix him up with a cutie. Of course then he probably would have forgotten all the intel he picked up in Wisconsin.

I only looked at 2023 but there appears to be a substantial edge to having your winning column number higher than your losing column 60-35 with 5% ties.

Just need my 8-7 and 9-7 to cash and my theory will be irrefutable

i hearby bequeath you one percent of any babycola profit from his donated square


is the 'up' an upper panhandle statement for texas folk?

Thanks, but I expect the return from my 8-8 square alone to dwarf that of any other spot.

Besides, I expect the karma from my struggles verifying all of your sub-squares to pay off by enhancing my future ability to interpret your posts.

I would guess that the upper panhandle for TX people may be interpreted as that little spit of Oklahoma.


nothing in that part of oklahoma spits just a little
