AE AE 2021 PIGSKIN PICKEM - PAGE 33 ENTRY LINK

[TheGreatBarryB]

Years ago I was in favor of locking ALL picks in. Widely ridiculed so figured if you can’t beat em..join em.

I can see why you did that for a year where there is no $$ and you being a sporting fella.

I am but a ruthless American.

Also if we WERE playing for $$ this season why would you give up your chance to cash in? BGT would have his own decision to make on which $$ was better to chase.

That is how the game is played

Oh don’t get me wrong. Too late for bgt the boofhead to change his decision and I’m certainly not asking for it. Good lord no! And if I was him I’d go go CR win money or not.

just pointing out for next year

Over the next week I'll go back over the HotStreak selections and try and work out a correct leaderboard there too.

AmericanCrow got thru to the conference finals by switching to the bungles for 15cr? Holy shit!

When you are hot, you are hot

We've had this debate before. Locking all selections or allowing late switches. Imo, having freedom to switch is good, adds a layer of tactics.

I wouldnt have even bothered logging to change it.

Thank JuJu and his TikTok followers.

I agree. Keeps people interested/active that might be dead in stuff like CR by week 8. Best for the comp to have as many people interested as possible deep into the season.

Plus , the fake out is always fun. If you're ahead going into the last game of the week in ND you can always anticipate your opponents move and switch to the outsider if you want. ...would take balls of steel but the option is there.

Risk reward too. A switch like that could harm your CR leaderboard slot, if it doesnt come off. Do you throw a hail mary in ND playoffs, or play it safe for CR or HRS or DZE etc.

No that’s not right at all. There is no skill in it whatsoever on swapping the last game, it becomes simply a necessity. And a player who has a higher cr and is the better tipper is at a distinct disadvantage. Even more so at the pointy end of the season

 

[Exe Gesis]

Os it any different to fantasy where MNF game, someone gets ruled out, a starting RB, and your opponent picks up the new starter late at night and ends up beating you in the playoffs?

I have done that before—and surely would this week

Did you hear that Barry??

For a person who hates change as much as you usually do I'm Impressed with the progress you've made, Bazz.

 

[AmericanCrow]

As far as this discussion is going I will just drop this in here now...

 

[Exe Gesis]

Re-do your Alpha vote TheGreatBarryB please. Yes to everything

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

The thing I love about AE is that it is unique to other tipping comps. Taking away the old classic Monday night switcheroo is taking away part of the comps fun.

 

[AmericanCrow]

At least we have the battle between analytics and spreadsheets and higher mathematical modeling

Versus

Picking whatever feels good in my gut

 

[A11dAtP0w3R]

Plus like GG said. If you're swapping to the 14 point dog on MNF you're going to lose far more times than you win anyway.
