Pick'em Game Week One Standings

Leading the way this week thanks to hitting a triple on Jean Pascal's win over Chad Dawson was pick'em newcomer txbox with a score of 61 points.  Also hitting triples on Pascal and finishing in second and third place respectively with 51 and 43.5 points were battle axe of doom and ulises solisDave Oakes went 4 for 5 this week to finish in fourth spot with 41 points, while morin 39, A.F. 34, Violent Demise 25, Michael Nelson 22 and SSreporters 20 were the only other players to post positive scores.

As for the rest of the field, this was a disastrous week of pick'em with the remaining 28 scores ranging from -3.5 all the way down to -47.5.  At least there's still plenty of time to catch up, especially with triples adding to the volatility of this season's game.

I think my incredible defense of my season two title deserves special recognition.

It’s like you’ve followed up a two hit shut-out by giving up 9 runs without retiring a batter in your next start.

I might play super gambles from here on. It’s the only shot I have to do well, basically. LET’S GO TRIPLES

Wow. Only 9 people with positive numbers

I should have laid a double on Vazquez-Kim though. I knew in my head that Vazquez was just all wrong for Kim, but wasn’t quite confident enough to go all out.

I think this was the worst week so far for negative scores. Hopefully everyone doesn’t get too disheartened after only one week, as there’s still plenty time to get back in it.

I wish I didn’t hedge my Pascal to win pick by going with Dawson by decision… but still a pretty good week.

Pascal-Dawson wasn’t hard to figure out. Pascal being a 4-1 underdog was just ridiculous. It was the Moreno-Ceremeno fight that hurt me

-4 bugger. Not the start I was looking for

You’re OK. I’m about 12 times worse.

Wow. That did not go well.

Third last is better than last… I guess?

Hey I finished with positive points, too! Do I not exist? ;(

Still by going with my heart and picking Pascal I didn’t end up in the negatives.

Nick Garcia is the Brian Russell of MLS but 10 times worse.

Our apologies – the oversight has been corrected.

Oh nice, im not very good at my picks actually being wrong on all of them except the Pascal fight
But i knew without a doubt that Dawson was a fraud and a hypejob so i used the triple on him losing
