Bloody Elbow Betting Game Season Opener: UFC 108

by Eugene Schelfaut on Dec 31, 2009 5:15 PM EST in MMA News

Last Season's Top Performers:

Pride might have been a factor in my less than generous evaluation of our opposing camps during the previous season of our betting game here at Bloody Elbow. Pride and the data which in fact supported such a low evaluation. It has, however, become apparent that the inchoate rabble can to my surprise coalesce around a stronger, more pick-savvy member of their crew, creating a whole not seen with just a look at their rather plain parts. Fear not, for we have our own inchoate rabble to steer correctly onward (no offense), being as we are the largest fight camp on MMA Playground. The best of us as proofed by a ten event season performance are above shown, if you are of the mind to be so steered. In short, beat FightLinker and by extension MMA4Real. No pressure. (Apparently MMA4Real chickens out. My hit list is thirteen objects the poorer.)

In a related side-note: my Canadian winners, Pooman and termin8r199, if I don't have both your address and phone number I cannot send you your prizes to your foreign country.

Will there be prizes offered for this season? I don't know. I won't be here at the end of it and that gives more reason for my Canadian winners to reply sooner. UFC 108 lines are in the extended portion, so pre-game it up. Check out the Betting Game Primer if you are new to this and wish to become more like us.

Important: If you wish to join the BE betting camp, send me a message on MMA Playground with your BE user name or leave a comment in this thread so I can send you an invite. Please make sure your MMA Playground login name is the same as your BE name or as close as possible so we can give you the proper credit.

I would like to join.

How exactly does it work? We make our bets on MMA Playground? I just joined a UFC.com league for 107 and came in 132 out of 20,000+. If BJ had let Diego survive a few minutes more for a unan decision, I would have been top 50 easily.

Do I need to sign up over at MMA Playground?

Yeah, sign up first on MMA Playground under the same user name. Send me a massage through there and I will send back over an invite to our camp. All our bets and fight predictions are made there on MMA Playground.

shit, didn’t know we could get that intimate on playground.

Without pain, without sacrifice, we would have nothing.

I’ll take whatever I can get.

It’s all good. You’ll get your rematch soon enough (against MMA For Real). Maybe as soon as next season. We have a different opponent that has incorrectly predicted a win against us to defeat right now. You guys get this win against Fight Linker, though, and you’re back in the running. It is, after all, a new year.

I resolve to pick a winning parlay this season. Yes, I’m 0-for-a-season-and-a-half with my parlays, but this will be the year where I break the magical $2,000 fake money mark.

I specializes in grammar fail.
