Hey Sports fans!
So I need to be upfront about what I'm about to ask and say that this is an idea that I can't put into action for at least a couple of months from a financial standpoint, but we could at least get the planning phase started now if anyone/everyone wants to.
Here we go...
Would you all like it if we added a Sportsbook and/or Pick'em section to the site? A bit of fun to be had while talking sports.
Spotsbook is a "betting" app, of sorts, but it doesn't make use of real currency (I think it can, but there's regulations in that where I just don't know what it would entail). Each weak the games for a sport or a set of sports are setup, everyone places their best by a certain time, the game is played and the bets payout. Mostly meant for fun, but can be done in a sort of ranked style to make it a competition over a season.

Pick'em is in a similar vein, but meant more as a leaderboard situation and with no payouts. The games for a sport or a set of sports are laid out, everyone makes their picks and then the games happen and the results come in, most correct picks gets to the top of the leaderboard, top of the leaderboard at the end of a season could win a prize?

So there we go. Would you all be interested in either or both of these add-ons, and if both, in what order would you like them added? Just thinking of fun things to add in to let everyone have more to enjoy
