*** Official CatsIllustrated Stupid Underdog Picks Contest - Week 17 ***

It's going to be a while getting this scored. I am getting 500 internal server errors when I try to read the web page. I suspect someone changed something on the web page, but right now I have no clue why I can't read the web page.
 
What a pain... I still don't know Rivals pages are giving me a 500 Internal Error when I tried to read them, but I figured out how to save the pages to a file and process them that way. It is way more work but will have to do until I can figure out how to get around the error.

Congrats to @maysvilleky who closed it out with a bowl pick and who also had the most correct picks with @no_neutrality.

It was a fun season that ended on a painful note. Hope I figure out how to read the web pages again before next season.

Sorry to hear about your connection problems! Still, your SUP thread is a lot of fun for me and many others! lol...Yeah, I know, I have no life, but, relatively speaking it's quiet and peaceful. Thanks for running this game...and putting up with all the aggravations it brings!
[cheers]
 
Thank you for all your efforts Old Red. I hope you get the programming figured out to make it easier on you! I really enjoy these games.

Rivals isn't helping at all. I sent them a message explaining the problem. They responded with a pretty much generic response which indicated they didn't read my description. I followed up describing it again. The response was they could help me with any billing questions but not with any programming questions.
 
Gonna do one this year, Red ???
I'm not sure. It looks like I get to rewrite my access code again since they rewrote the forum pages again. I am working right now and it has me pretty done in (didn't take long for retirement to take its toll on my stamina). I'll try to take a look at it on Monday and see how much frustration the new format causes.

Looks like I can read the VegasInsider odds page just fine and can just about bet I can read the cbssports.com page I read the scores from. Not sure yet how hard it is going to be to get the thread reading code going.
