Stay tuned for an NFL preseason football contest.

That's, of course, if RAY LUCA approves.

Will post details early next week.

I will keep it simple with this initial thought: Pick the winners of all NFL preseason games minus the Hall of Fame game.

Contest will thus consist of 48 (edit) games.

Contestant with the most number of winners will be declared the champion and take home a winner-take-all purse of $500, compliments of valued EOG contributor RAY LUCA.

Entry deadline will be Thursday, August 10 at 7:00 p.m. ET.

Each contestant will be allowed three posts (one per week) to submit their selections.

There are 16 games scheduled for each preseason week, thus 48 games total.

fun strange fact at Saratoga today. Ive never seen this, Im sure it has happened.

race 5 there are full brothers running against each other. the 3 year old and the 4 year old, same mom horse same dad horse.

same trainer also

ITs the #1 entry for Linda Rice (I do think both will run)

Zeebear
Newport Bridge

would have been funny if the ORtiz brothers were on each. but no Ortiz is in Newport.

(this entry has no chance to win this one by the way)

OK this isn't a selection. Just an oddity. In the Amsterdam Stakes on Saturday, one horse is named Gun It, and another is Gunite. Should make for an interesting race call.

Back to last weekend, how did Irad not get DQ'd in the Jim Dandy for herding Angel of Empire and finishes in front by about 4 inches?

Doing it for safety is fine. But that was the 4th Race that had the breakdown, and they announce as they are loading into the gate for the beginning of the Pick 5 and don't give any time to adjust tickets. This was as unethical as it gets because they knew the Pick 5 pool would be decimated by the announcement.
