Why is it that some people are allowed to pick multiple games from a particular sport (even when there are options for 4 sports) while I am forced to pick one from each sport?

I really don't want to bet on pre-season baseball, but am forced to every day.....

any thoughts?  Am I missing something?

For example...  this guy is at the top of the leaderboard making NOTHING but basketball picks....

How's that possible?

Bonk... you literally have to wait until every single game in baseball has started.  Once every single game has started, you will be able to pick from another sport.  The point of the game is to reward the most well-rounded capper.  However, strategy is involved too.  So if you see the last baseball game starts at 4:30 and you have 2 basketball games you want to pick at 7:00, just return after 4:30 and you should be able to do both basketball games.

It should be mandatory to play one in each sport unless there is no event in that sport that day.  If you should miss a sport, too bad for you, u'll have only 3 picks for the day.

George why don't you come up with your own free contest?
I personally don't like picking baseball either but my record has been pretty good!

How did SportsLady pick 2 NBA games today (and no baseball games) when there are still MLB games on the board?  Is there a glitch in the system?

she probably did it just after midnight when today's picks were available.

MLB wasn't up yeat so she got the option of a second pick from NBA or NHL

So am I understanding this right. 

Baseball picks will be listed, and when they are done or down to less than 4 games left, some other sport will be available to pick from that day? 

Also, does this game run 7 days / week
