Mr Random had picked 105 games and Mission only 36. Until Mission has picked at least 100 he is just a statistical anomaly.
Not sure exactly what that means but it sounds right.

Not sure what that means either. So what's Mr. Random's excuse for trailing me, despite the fact that I have made 221 picks to his 105?

Hey, you never let Mr. Random play until challenged. And rumor has it that you sometimes use a two-headed coin for Mr. Random

Well, Mr. Random appears to be tailing Mission's picks......or is it the other way around?
Also, Mrs. Random PM'd me stating that she wanted to have her picks posted. It seems that she believes that she can do better than all 3 of us just by using the color of the uniforms to make her picks........I told her to go start her own thread.

Haha, great touch at the end!
Mr. Random is definitely riding my coattails. He doesn't understand that, in order to beat me, he eventually has to pick against me.

Quote: steeldcoFor the record, today's picks of 12/29/12, were reduced by the addition of a new metric. The hope is to attain fewer picks at a higher win rate.....we'll see.
So far, so good. Fingers crossed. 15 wins and 6 losses since 12/29/12. The favorites that have been picked are 9 and 2.

Yes!
6-2 with two games at the Half and a 1-1 split for 7-3 if those games ended now!
It worked once, so I am trying it again. I'm going to run my pathetic excuse for a system and pick everyone of tomorrow's games!
EDIT: There are only three games tomorrow? WTH? Why does the NBA always do this? I only have Lines for two of them, to boot!

You would think that the NBA schedule makers could better balance the number of games played per day....
Anyway, congrats Mission! Very nice day yesterday with a 7 and 3 record.....and better yet your YTD is now 50%. Nice improvement.
You've taken the lead in this 3 horse race. Poor Mr. Random is just getting some serious mud in his face......

Thanks, SteelDCo!
I hope there are more games for tomorrow, it seems like the only time I do well is if I pick a ton of games!
