Congrats to all. I was on top of the leader board for several weeks, but my strategy was based on luck/variance and it caught it up to me, 'bigley". Lookin' forward to next year ! THANKS ONCE AGAIN to M146 & EDCOLLINS for doing all the hardwork ! ! !
There's emptiness behind their eyes
There's dust in all their hearts
They just want to steal us all and take us all apart

This is a little late, but I found, hidden deep in an excel file I long forgot about, the aggregated results of this game for the first four seasons (2012-2015). I've added the results from the past two seasons. Okay, it's actually a lot late, but it's never a bad time to talk football.
- There are 4 players who have participated in all six seasons, Wizard, JohnZimbo, Miplet, and Mission146.
- There are an additional 8 players who have participated in five of the six seasons: SOOPOO, StrictlyAP(WizardofNothing), AyeCarumba, JW17, EdCollins, Beachbumbabs, terapined, and myself.
- The list of champions are:
2012 Wizard (71.26%)
2013 AyeCarumba (58.62%)
2014 Wizard (70.00%)
2015 Ed Collins (59.04%)
2016 Wizard (63.41%)
2017 MidwestAP (61.18%)
- I've listed the aggregated results (by total win pct) for all participants with at least 240 picks (avg 80 results or more over at least three years) over those six seasons. I have the complete record if anyone is interested in knowing other results.
- The results include confidence picks as double, and exclude the forfeited 0-5 weeks.
- The aggregate record for all players (69 unique participants over six seasons) is 7020-6919 (50.36%)
