Great battle between tron7 and jagsnumberone for the regular season title. My one really great week got me to 4th, so I consider that a moral victory. Thanks to rcade for running this once again. I hope all have a happy New Year and do well in the playoff pick 'em.

Good job, tron! You too, jags; almost there.

As always, thanks for running this contest, rcade. No matter how much I suck at this, it's still fun.

Well done, tron7, and jags1 !

Congratulations tron7 and thanks rcade for running things.

-48 takes special talent :)

Thanks rcade and congrats to tron7

Congrats to tron7 and thanks rcade for running this. I thought at the end of Niner/Seahawk game that I had won by 1, but I had a math error when adding up the totals (hard to believe my degree is in math/lol). To think if Seattle scores there I would have won, so close (yet, so far/lol.). It was fun anyway, look forward to future contests.

Felt like I was fighting both jagsnumberone and the actual Jaguars down the stretch. It would have been poetic to lose my lead because I had picked yet another Jags game wrong.

Thanks everyone.

Congrats, Tron7 and Jagsnumberone on the near miss!

One of these days I'm going to add a report on which teams we pick worst. The Jaguars gotta be one of my problem teams.
