Thumbs up Beat the Closing Line Contest Hosted by Seanie Mac

As of right now this is not an official contest, but hopefully it's allowed. If so can someone sticky this

Rules:

1.) Tomorrow, Sunday, March 14th, all who want to participate in this contest will pick every side and total in which they thinknit will move in their favor. So if you think Team A who is +7 will close at +6 you take that team, and if you think the total of 136 will close at 138 you say over 136. Doesn't matter who actually wins this is just a good tool, by beating the closing line on a game you will be a longterm winner.

2.) all plays must be posted by 10am EST

3.) all lines must used from The Greek and current as of the time of your post. In the event that the line doesn't move it's just a push.

4.) this is for NCAA and NBA, again every side and every total. I will try and post all the openers later when all the lines are out

5.) all particiapnts will grade themselves. I will make a new thread for all the plays tonight


in the event of a Tie

1.) which team will win by the most points, college or NBA
2.) which total will go over or under by the most points, college or NBA


Now here's the prize!!! 25 reward points!!! I know it's not money but it's a fun little contest and something different

if you would be interested please respond
