An NFL Playoff Pick 'Em is coming by Friday. Good job, Tron7!

posted by rcade at 07:59 PM on January 04, 2018

Congrats, Tron7.

posted by Goyoucolts at 08:24 PM on January 04, 2018

Good job, tron! You won by quite a margin as well. Noice!

posted by NoMich at 08:30 PM on January 04, 2018

Can you post the results from last year's NFL Playoff Pick 'em?

I don't think that ever happened after the Pats-Falcons Super Bowl. My guess was that tron or bender won it but I never saw the final results.

posted by beaverboard at 09:36 PM on January 04, 2018

I'll do that too. I thought Ic23b was the likeliest winner.

posted by rcade at 09:47 PM on January 04, 2018

MINUS SIXTEEN!?!

Yeesh.

Congrats Tron7!

posted by grum@work at 10:19 PM on January 04, 2018

Way to go, tron, I think we were in "garbage time" for the final couple of weeks. Thanks to you too, rcade, for running this. Pick 'ems are always fun.

posted by Howard_T at 10:19 PM on January 04, 2018

Well done Tron, after week 14 you were uncatchable! Congratulations.

posted by truthhurts at 10:30 PM on January 04, 2018

Congrats, Tron. Needing a good final week, I laid an egg and had my worst week. Oh well. Thanks, rcade, for taking the time to do this. And, of course, Go Jaguars!!

"I'll do that too. I thought Ic23b was the likeliest winner." I thought I might of won it last year but never did see the final results.

Congratulation Tron7, and thanks rcade for putting this pick'em on.

Congrats tron, and thanks again rcade.

If only I remembered to post for two weeks ...

Many congrats, Tron; thanks, rcade ... now I'll sit for four months of SportFi Premier League fantasy "garbage time."

posted by jjzucal at 10:03 AM on January 05, 2018

Congratulations, Tron7. I thought this was my year, especially when, against the conventional wisdom and all of my fans' wishes, I brought Marvin Lewis back to run things for me.

Huge congratulations are also in order to tommytrump for a hard-fought Costanza. werty gave you a run for your money, but in the end, your anti-winner mojo was just too strong.

rcade, as always, thank you for taking the time to put this together.

Congrats, Tron. And thanks as always for running these, rcade.
