A Not So Rousing Start

Make that a terrible start but it certainly wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. I will be tallying up the results in a minute, but I know I am down more units yet less money in relation to bankroll then I was at this time last year. Fucking blows either way, but that link should serve as a beacon of hope for those of you who are new here.
Meth +3.5 -104 (4)
Unfortunately this won’t be the last time I experiment with Meth this season.
Bowling Green +13 +100 (4)
Yipee. A winner.
USC/Virginia Under 43 -105 (2)
The only solace here is that the game did not land between 44-46.
UL Monroe +26.5 -106 (4)
Not.
Western Michigan +14 -107 (4)
Even
Kunt St +10 -110 (4)
Close.
Ky/Ville Under 56.5 -105 (2)
The totals record isn’t looking so bad thus far. Only slightly negative.
Rutgers -3.5 -106 (6)
I think I summed up best in email I sent to a colleague of mine late last night, “Fuck Rutgers”.









I know you’re busy with updating your record, doing stuff for the Degenerate Cup, and maybe even a little bit of real work; but when are you going to get off your ass and grade everyone’s Wagerline predictions?
Should have those done by the 3rd Saturday in November at the latest.
According to my unofficial results, ML, you won pretty handily. Doesn’t matter if you use “Absolute Sum of Error” or “Sum of Error Squared”. Also beat the “average” of all entries in both categories, the only one to do that.
Not surprisingly, CT’s wild predictions came in DFL by a wide margin. Taking the maximum prediction from all the entries for each game did better than CT. Well done.
I figured as much. All that knowledge really helped me turn a profit didn’t it.
I will take the time to grade them sometime this week.
Just watched the rutgers match on tape.
awful, especially that 3rd and 23 completion
