sherman. . yes. . .the caribsports.com contest is probably the most prestigous of the online NFL contests pick 5 sides a week and i believe they award prizes 1-20th with first being some sweet 5 figure number 75,000 or so. roughly what baseball players made in 1988
. . it is just like the hilton contest (biggest of them all) with a smaller entry fee and payouts

The Rx will most likely have several contests. I remember three from last season. They were all pretty cool.

TT,
Even a pompous little green frog knows short term streaks are meaningless.
I think I finished in the top tier in all the Rx NFL contests and popped a couple of sweet money freebies from Will and Hollywood last year.
I just didn't brag about it ( bad karma ) ....

No, he has a free pass. You are still following me around, even without posting plays. Scary. So, our sample grew last night to two games, but this one hit for 3 straight at home. There is usually a first time for everything, but that will be a rarity, special circumstances. In fact, the closest game was the 8 point game #4. Motown was an upset that comes along maybe once every 20 years, if that...Back to football contests...OF
I was in Carib's last year, and started of very strong and finished quite well. Only problem is, if I remember right, you had guys with luck on their side starting off 15-0, 19-1, 24-1 (5 games per week). Takes some skill of course, but whoever catches the breaks usually leaves the others behind. In a contest like that, one bad week and your toast......
Also, I should explain the reason why I let that 2nd one go/what happened. The original rules stated that your picks must be in before 1:00 starts, first games. Ok........BUT, the first couple weeks, Carib allowed players to still make selections after 1:00 on the later games if you hadnt submitted your selections yet. I assumed it was going stay like that. I made my selections for the one entry, but put the other one off. When I went to make the selections it was after 1:00, and they went back to original rules just out of the blue. I sent messages and inquired but to no avail........
Frog:
In a contest within the RX, what would you suggest as a buy in? I might consider a challenge depending on the contest structure and value, but it has to be worth the time. Could be direct standings, match-up elimination bracket, or lose one and you're out. Your thoughts.
