Good going, Howard!
How the hell did I end up with five points? Man, I really sucked this year.
Thanks for hosting this, rcade. Great job as always

My phone keeps pinging with news bulletins and every time I check to see if it's an announcement of Howard's pick 'em victory, I find out it's just a bunch of dumb updates from the Academy Awards show.

Here it is, almost midnight, and I have just now gotten around to looking at SpoFi. Wow!!! I had no idea I would be close, let alone come out on top. Win or lose it's always fun, and we really appreciate your running it, rcade. If the pants are available in Day Spa Red, that's my pick. Otherwise I will stick with Patriots' red, white, and blue. That will be perfect for my next visit to a certain spot in Jupiter, FL. I will pass my size data, address and the like along to you, rcade, via FB Message if that's ok.
To all, it's been great playing with you. Sometimes even the blind hog finds an acorn, so I put my win into that category. Now it's time to get serious in the NBA pick 'em.
