Costanza shortage!: The honest-to-goodness last placers in the Spofi pools of recent vintage have been awarded a Costanza to honour their disacheivement. I have been the purveyor of Costanzas but I think I have been lax. Did you earn one? I guess the criteria is last place in a pick 'em or confidence pool (last place in roto and pts pools can be easily achieved by abandoning your teams and that happens all. the. time. and thus is no eligible) Ring any bells? Do need to carve your username into one?
The only one that I can think of right now is Yukon from the WS Confidence Pool. Link

Mine is linked (check the source code on my userpage, I'm not lying), but I'm in between servers. Hopefully this weekend I'll get everything back up, and can then proudly flaunt my ineptitude anew.

Well I won the 2006 WBC one and I already have my award. Thank you so much. It is posted on my user page.

I nominate myself. My team in the SpoFi pool, Les Coupes Longueuil is a disaster so far, and there's no end in sight. I continue to blame forces beyond my control, viz. the auto-draft that stuck me with Osgood and Auld as my goalies.

I continue to blame forces beyond my control, viz. the auto-draft that stuck me with Osgood and Auld as my goalies. Blaming outside forces for your own poor performance is the epitome of the Constanza Spirit. Keep up the bad work!

I guess direct me towards the pool (lockerroom thread, I guess) and I will see what I can do. I think there was a gap between the World Cup of Baseball (March 2006?) and the end of the CFL lockerroom pick em (last week). I think the World Cup confidence pool was one, the Ryder Cup confidence pool was one (should that last placer identify himself or ever revist us). Oh, an for an example, goddam is proudly showing off her lack of prowess in the 2006 NCAA tournie.
