MisterMike, what is the maximum amount of points the first place gets? I want to see if I can do the following ( ) to HondaJim NOW or if I must wait until after the race... Last edited by RC90; 11-02-2009 at 12:04 PM. |

If I remember correctly is it 38? I think I'm the only one to ever get all five picks correct. |

No wild card points for picking Spies finish! That could make it interesting

Yeah and Spies is already almost as fast as Toseland who he is replacing. He's a quick learner so we'll see in tomorrows practice and qualifying.

Pedrosa Stoner Hayden Rossi Spies Spies don't need to prove anything, he's got the contract. He'll finish on the heels of Rossi just to let him know that he's coming up from behind. P

Great job RC90 and to the rest of you guys that placed well. One of these years I'm gonna win some damn money I'm thinking next year would be a good tiime to start. Thanks Mike for all your hard work, long live the Wristwisters MotoGP Pool!!!!!!! Oh yeah I forgot......Ben Spies in 2010 baby!!!!!!!!!!!! GO NICKY GO!!!!!!! And finally....Death by unga bunga to Pedrosa! Last edited by GDJAM; 11-09-2009 at 12:46 PM. |

MisterMike: I could have sworn I posted back here but it must of have been via PM... did you get it? Thanks GDJAM for the kind words. I may not be doing it next year though. As I explained a few times & HondaJim said it to, the Fantasy League hinders my enjoyment of the races and I see myself cheering for my top picks than my favorite riders and/or not enjoying the race because my picks are all screwed up... hard to explain really. |
