The EOG Octagon (ZZYZX ROAD v JOHN KELLY)
- Thread starter John Kelly
- Start date
Like Chicago White Sox manager Rick Renteria said after his team went 1-5 on its most recent homestand, "It will get better from here."
Because it can't get much worse.

Yikes!
It's a race to the bottom here in April.
And to think "Z" started the month with four winners from his first six selections.

At times, I wish I were a $100 bettor.
960 Los Angeles Dodgers (listed pitchers) -138 at Pinnacle
Big-time bettor?
One man's ceiling is another man's floor.
Say you bet $500 a game.
Somebody will say, "I had no idea he bet that much."
Someone else will say, "That's all he bets?"
Andy Iskoe provided the best response when someone asked about the size of his wagers.
Andy responded, "None of your business."
I feel a runcoming from both of you guys. Bol this weekend.
I appreciate the optimism, NUT6.

JK in the letdown mode after a great Feb and March run.....
Three more MLB plays today and then I'm going to contemplate my strategy for the second half of the contest.
Frustrating.

I switched from a play on the D-backs to a play on the Rangers because I noticed ZzyzxRoad had submitted a play on the total at Chase Field.
The rules do not allow me to play the D-backs tonight.
Here's the rule: Once a contestant posts a selection, neither the contestant nor the opponent can submit a play in the same game.

Need a timeout.
I'll take a five-day break from this competition and return Saturday with a better plan.

Currently Z is about a 79% favorite to win. If he goes on a run in the next 5 days, your plan on Saturday may just be to surrender
Funny but not nice.

My comeback begins today by rooting for 10 or more runs at Miller Park.
