RexFives Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Hey guys. I have recently found a relatively unknown site on the web that encompasses all sports and allows you to prove your knowledge by making predictions. The cool part is, they are actually scored and tallied so you can see how good you are. Its great if you have a group of know it all friends cause now they have to prove they know their stuff in advance and not merely talk it afterwards. Anyways, the site is Cubs and Cardinals dominated which sucks so I was hoping that some fellow Sox fans would join. Its more so a competitive site than an information site like this. I still get all my information from here. But if you want a little competition on the side, feel free to sign up at FanIQ. Just thought I would pass it along. http://www.faniq.com/index.php?id=24128 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really dont understand what to do I particiapted in about 3 polls? is that what your suppose to do? the point is to take the polls, and the more you win, the more points you build up. you can also lose points by predicting incorrectly. its a way to make predictions but add the competitive nature to it. its fun with a group of friends so you can all compete for bragging rights. you can always invite them if thats a route u would like to take Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T R U Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Nvm, I just looked at it.. I dont really think picking who is gonna win between two teams is a legit measure of someones sports knowledge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not really sure how that shows your sports intelligence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soxbadger Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 Its basically the end of the world. A website where there is no interaction, just polls. Not to say I dont hate the idea, it just makes me laugh. I also signed up but what is the point of guessing now when most of the polls are open for 20-30 days? Probably will be better when some real sports are on, not just Women's basketball and the NBA. You know its a slow sports night when ESPN is running WNCAA highlights, I think women's sports deserves its own network. Some may say that is sexist, I say its what the people want.

I gotta say, if you want to see some truely great basketball you have to check out the WNIT. The fundamentals are through the roof in that thing.

RexFives Posted March 22, 2006 Author Share Posted March 22, 2006 this is true, right now the individual interaction isnt great, but it just opened to the public in the last month. it will get better with time like anything else, if you feel its not quite up to your speed yet, thats cool, but check back in a month, hopefully it will have gotten better by then, thats also a reason i was passing it along is because there is great interaction here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
