Does everyone get +500 funbucks every week, or is it just for those of us below a threshold?

it is based on a percent of how much of your bankroll you risked the previous week, up to 500.

I like to think of funbucks like I'm real degenerate gambler working a lovely job and half my paycheck goes to my 500 dollar a week sports betting habit where I lose it all on parlays like "Every favored team wins" "every home team wins".

If you're not risking everything you have on every bet you make, you're doing it wrong. Or at least, you won't compete with the random huge parlays that turn $500 into $50,000 in two weeks.

there might be a lot of money to get made betting against me in eliminator. I'm somehow 0-3 at predicting a win

Yeah, 18 of us so far.

I've used

Ravens > Jets
Packers > Bears
Eagles > Football Team

Next week already has some tougher choices. Lions > Seahawks looks to be my best bet right now.

This is such a weird season. The raiders are 0-3, the texans are 0-2-1, and every other team in the NFL has won at least one game. My usual strategy of picking whatever team is playing one of the league's obviously worthless opponents isn't working. And the other side is so weird too, the Eagles and the Dolphins are the only 3-0 teams? What? The NFL has changed so much that I don't recognize it any more.

Maybe this year is gonna be like the AFC last year but in both conferences. Just massive parity and Any Given Sunday is truly a thing.

Oh yeah no I just meant that only the Raiders and the Texans being winless is weird, not that those two teams being winless is weird.

Is there a way to unclick future picks? Was messing around and saw some weeks had spreads listed way out in advance and started clicking them, but in hindsight it seems kind of unsporting since I am not sure if they are real spreads or some legacy from last year or whatever, and since we can change picks whenever there is a more favorable spread it is always beneficial. I can always repick them when the week arrives I guess.

For spreads I think if you just click them again you get the new spreads.

no, you can just click to change it whenever-- as for it being unsporting, they are real lines that somebody's offering. I always click forward many weeks and see if I can find a lopsided spread, that's just smart. Until I lose anyway.
