You think that's bad, not only did I take the Bucs, but I also picked the Browns as well :laffo:

While “never bet on divisional games” is rule 1, “never trust the browns” is rule 2 and “don’t bet that far off the Vegas line” is rule 3.

I'm really struggling with a safe eliminatir pick this week. I'm leaning towards Cowboys or Browns right now.

Ravens or Browns. Never trust a divisional game (Cowboys).

Pickem was brutal this week.

"Bet against the Dolphins" was still a winning strategy.

EDIT: I'm an idiot and somehow read "pickem" as "eliminator"

I'm getting a "NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID" error for tracking.saseliminator.com when trying to click through the email the SAS reminder sent me.

Going straight into saseliminator.com seems to work.

I am somehow in the position in Eliminator of thinking taking the Redskins is the best option. And there's three or four other players who think the same.

I would like to go back and change my choices so that I'm not in this position today, thanks. I went with "anyone against the dolphins" and that was not smart.

I saw I was about to bet on Washington this week based on my “anyone against Miami”* and changed things just in time.

*but also no divisional games.

Can we get an email from SAS Eliminator when all games have spreads available? I've been checking since Tuesday and there's still no spread on Seahawks @ Falcons on the site (mind you, CBS sports has Atlanta +3.5), so I can't finalize spread pick'em bets.

How must people took the Steelers tonight in eliminator?

38 out of 161, so second-highest number. Vikings were first with 60 out of 161.

Feature request: a way to unselect an eliminator pick without picking another team.

why would you want to no-pick a week?

I don't. But if you have a team selected in Eliminator for week 16 (whoever is playing the Dolphins) but realize they might be a better pick for week 9 (when they are playing the Bengals), there's no way to do that right now without making a different pick for week 16 first. I'd like to be able to unpick week 16 (or whatever) so I can choose more freely in week 9.

In eliminator I would agree that no pick is a loss. Pick em and the rest like that I'm not so sure, people just miss them because they're busy or whatever, they're still not getting wins and thus unable to move up the leaderboard

Or the loving line never shows up until like 12:55 on Sunday. Vikings @ Chiefs (-2.5 at CBS), I'm looking at you.

At least let me make the pick before the spread shows up.

if there's no line set, you can't bet at a real casino, why should fake money be any different?

Interesting. I wonder where CBS’s spread pickem game gets its lines from, because they have had a 2.5 line since Tuesday.

You're gonna be sad with that Eliminator pick. That has prime "dead cat bounce to gently caress up a divisional opponent flying high" stink all over it.

I know "no divisional games" is the #1 unwritten rule but it's the Saints at home against the Falcons. They're gonna loving destroy them

I'm pretty sure the Saints at least once (2015) came out of nowhere (1-4) to fuckin' wreck an undefeated Falcons' season, so it's totally possible the Falcons could get their poo poo together just this once.

But really I don't want you to gently caress this up for the Saints, thanks.
