Off season ideas for the contest board

Featured Replies

Anyone got any ideas? Should we turn this into Hawks, Bulls, Blackhawks talk, sort of a Chicago off season sports board? Or we could turn this into the brawl room where people come to argue and fight?

 

Any other ideas?

I like the idea of a Blackhawks PTC. We could do a thing like they do on the Score where you have to pick the top 3 scorers in each Bulls game. How about a 5 team parlay where you have to pick 5 (or any other number) teams that will win that night. It could span several sports or just one sport.

I like Savvy's idea of having a multi-sport parlay.

 

I don't know if there's enough demand for a B'hawks PTC, I for one, know nothing about Hockey. But I'm very into all of the other major sports. Something that could get everyone involved would be great.

How about a Chicago sports board for the off season?

Hockey may be hard. I know nothing about hockey either. I think you could do a off-season Chicago sports and a place for people to say anything. During the season it is different, but how much can you really talk about with the Sox in December?

i think its a great idea to make this a other sports talk forum till baseball starts back up again..... we can have pick to clicks on football, basket ball, hockey, or whatever ....

PTC for Hockey is a breeze as far as scoring goes.

You can just rely on the +/- system they already use to assign pts for players.

 

I hope we can develop a +/- system for the SOX next year.

The biggest demand in the off-season will probably be Da Bears followed by ND, MI, IL, WI, OSU, MSU, & NW. The regional Big 10.

So maybe we could develop a +/- for the CFA.

 

I doubt the Bulls will get much interest.

da bullllllsssssssssssssss :headbang

Have the screen slowly fade to dark, dark, gray then a blazing flash of light then almost as quickly it goes black. Until the WS is over.

 

How about YNOT for the NL Playoffs. I can't stomach the AL Playoffs.

 

How about a Football confidence contest each week. Pick winning and rank them 1-how many games are being played. You get your assigned points for a win.

 

13 Goal Hockey pool. Pick a team each week you think will win a game in which 13 goals are scored.

followed by ND, MI, IL, WI, OSU, MSU, & NW. The regional Big 10.

University of Texas Pan-American Broncs :headbang

 

The worse division 1 basketball school to ever receive NCAA sanctions

:bang

We may see how well you can stomach a Cubs playoff YNOT. :o

This will be the most impressive Cubs swoon since 1969. They got 1 more win left the Astros win 3 of 4 from the lowly Brew Crew and Sunday evening we're consoling them telling them we know how it hurts :fyou

I personally really like the idea of using this both for an off season sports board, and we could still have the contests over here. I would suggest even moving the NFL and NCAA contests over to this board, as they would be more appropriate here.

I AGREE WITH THE CHICAGO SPORTS BOARD. GO BULLS BEARS HAWKS AND ILLINI TUOMO RUTTU WILL LEAD THE HAWKS TO THE PLAYOFFS AND THE BULLS WILL MAKE THE PLAYOFFS AS A 7 SEED

Maybe we could include a preseason YNOT next season that might be worth some points. Questions such as :

 

1)Who will lead the team in AVG?

2)Who will play the most games in CF?

3)Who will have the most ribbies?

4)What place will the Sox finish in?

5)How many trades will the Sox make?

 

etc etc...

Excellent idea. How about starting one now with the opening day lineups.

Have it close in a couple weeks.

I'm all for the hockey ptc idea. Could also hav who would score the game winning goal, and how many saves will TBO make?
