Thanks to you MidwestAP for running this for us. It's a lot of work each week, and I appreciate you putting in the time and effort. It was fun and exciting (even though we all got stomped by BBB).

Congrats again to BBB on a brilliant season!



I tell you what, it's a huge thrill to win a contest like this, probably out of proportion to its importance, but very grateful nonetheless. Thanks very much for the congrats and the fun competition!

Indeed! Can't wait to do it again next season =). CONGRATS BBB!

A tough loss indeed Scott =/.

(poking fun): Also hurts that I got my picks in 7 minutes late on like week 9, which would have netted me another ~$4200. Lesson learned for next year!

Thanks again Midwest, this was a ton of fun =).

I think it's required for me to say this, so, Bring It On, Scotti! :)

Strap on your helmet and pads. The NFL preseason is starting up. Will contests run this season?

Is there interest in a Suicide Pool?

I've got one that I'll be posting about Sunday. My usual game with a few modifications, as always.

Looking forward to it, Mission! Thanks for hosting.

I've never done a suicide pool. I would definitely play if someone who knows how organized one.
