I sure as hell didn't see it. Nine chances and a career-high 40 Beyer. I figured one of the firsters or droppers or equipment changers would be better than that, but that's not necessarily a fair assumption with NY-breds.

Elvis, DaHoss, Herk, Fantini, tigger, Titan get through first 2 legs..

I had him on the main play early on, and then ultimately relegated him to backups.. Terrible bunch o' coconuts...

Of course it is. The contests never should have been made for less than $2K.

I agree.. that would have left me $1280 for beer!

The original point of these contests, that was unfortunately lost, was to show people just how hard it is to hit Pick-6s, and lead people in the right direction of how to construct plays that even have a chance to win.

It's about ticket construction, more than opinions, and there is no room for that for $800.

cassie 02-27-2008 02:32 PM

herk and dahoss only with any chance at 5 of 6

That's my fault and we'll revert to the $2,000 budget for future exercises..
