I think that for sports challenge, at least the pro football, there should be point spreads in addition to the current system. I think it would be a lot funner than the current system, and I think it wouldn't be bery difficult to do.
thanks for letting me post this suggestion

oh, hell no! Not a chance, as the spreads keep changing, and we're the ones who have to keep updating them. The spreads change at least twice a week. Unless the others want to do it, but I, personally, am totally against this!

I agree, it wouldn't be that hard to du, but updating it would be a royal pain in the ass.

pick the spread from 1 particular day, and not let it change after that

NO, the whole point of spreads is they change, so your defeating the purpase if you don't change them.

No, here's what he's asking for. Many pools have you pick against the spread instead of just straight up. You use the spread from the beginning of the week and then ahve the game open all week. I wouldn't mind doing this at some point, but it would require a bunch of rewrites in code and there's other things I wanna do to that code first. But I did actually consider this when I first wrote the code a couple of years ago.
