 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
They should stick with 12 from now on.
As for this past week, let's move on. Several triple digit finishes for KJ, yucky.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
By far the most played first two games of the year, presumably with all the Avatar interest.
12 eh? Interesting. I guess it helps separate the dedicated from the non a little bit.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Interesting, I believe I originally saw the predictions were for 3 days, but now it's changed to 4 days like usual on the MLK weekend.

 Re: Derby Game Discussion Thread
Thanks. We may have hit 90% if I didn't change our The Lovely Bones prediction from 20 to 15. grr.
Congrats xia on your win, soze, and Mr. R as well.
