    Anyone else take part in this? If so what is the highest you have gotten right in a row. I am terrible the most I have gotten in a row is 6.

    My highest was 8. The only way to do well is to be patient. I dont have that ability to wait for the good games.

    I am in the game as well. The highest score I got to was 6 but am currently on a 3 game streak. Only 24 more to go ;)

    My highest streak was 8 too until the Magic beat the Lakers. I'm back at 3 now thanks to the Rockets winning today. I got Lebron to score more pts than Kobe tonight. Whoever said patience is the key is absolutely correct.

    I had a streak up to 7 before forgetting to put in my selection one day and losing the streak.

    Awww, man. :(

    I really thought I was going to get naked and run around the street for money from Esp'n. Never mind, carry on. :eek: Although THIS also seems like fun.

    I was sitting at the computer desk last night and my Uncle asked was I streaking for a million dollars, I thought he actually meant running across the field naked. I looked at him crazy.

    But just started this ESPN streaking thing. I picked Tennessee tonight over Vanderbilt.

    This is kind of cool. Betted on Bibby out scoring Rose and won that. Now I betted on the Rockets winning against the Jazz.

    What happens you place two bets and one of them is right and the other isn't?

    It doesn't let me bet for 2 things until the other one I bet on is finished...or started...something like that.

    I just started yesterday, 2-0 so far.

    You don't have to pick each day if you don't want to.

    I just now tied my record in 6 picks correctly in a row. I don't know anything about soccer but I have picked 3 correctly on this streak from it. I will probably a little more patient now.

    I thought there were some easy options today with the Rockets playing the Pacers and the Hornets playing the TWolves. But both the Rox and Hornets lost.

    The easiest picks tonight I thought were the Cavs, Thunder and Knicks.

    I got the Timberwolves game right, but I think it's the first time I've nailed one of those "well-this-seems-obvious-the-other-way" type of things. I got boned (with 99.5% of the other people who picked the game) on Valparaiso (6-14) vs. UW-Milwaukee (12-7) yesterday. How good do you think the person who decided to make that game a matchup felt about fooling, like, everybody?

    Damnit since Jamal Crawford didn't play tonight, the Lebron/Crawford pick was a push. :mad:

    That game got me too. I was pissed.

    I had Lebron on this one too. I think it was BS. Nobody knew Crawford wasn't going to play. It was a game-time decision. They should've either changed it to another Golden State player or gave the people who chose Crawford a push and the people who picked Lebron a win.
