Alrighty then,

This weeks winner has finally broken the curse of The Bambino, getting his first ever 1st place in The Weekly Football Pool! Antonio rises to the top and takes 1st place with a good score of 42, and he's the only one to get more than 40 points this week. He's been close with a number of 2nd places since joining TWFP in 2017, so now he can scratch that one off his bucket list.lol

2nd place is a three way tie at 36 between Bill, Jake FSF and Jay J, getting his first mention of the year. 5th place goes to our 2024 Champion Rudy, just a point behind with 35. Honorable mention is a seven man log jam of David R, Efrain, Jeff T, Brother Leo, Rick, Riel and Sean all just a point out at 34. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

For the overall points race to be crowned Champion of 2025, AdriaNNa reclaims the top spot in 1st. Terence V moves up one to 2nd. Jeremy drops down two to 3rd. Rory rejoins the lead group in 4th along with Andy M in 5th. Just off the pace is Sean.

This week we have the three holiday games on Thursday, one game on Friday, and the remaining games on Sunday and Monday, the same as last year. No byes. I'll get the pick sheet and spreads out early tomorrow morning to give everyone some time to overthink yours picks.

And I'll be sending out a separate email for the Turkey Day Bowl Pool after this. If you haven't replied yet, and you want to be IN the TDBP, send me a reply and say, I'm IN!

Well Well Well....................

The guy who always teases me about my weak, 1 point picks on Thursday night games has finally made a point. Actually he made 53 points and got a near perfect score this week. Taking 1st place whether Dallas covered or not, Rory "Mcllroy" Pernot makes a splash getting his first, 1st place since Week 12 of the 2022 season. This is his second time in the ca$hiSh this year and makes up for the awful season he had last year. Just kidding ole pal. Glad your boat finally came in. I thought I might be talking about our first 3 peat ever in TWFP, but it wasn't in the cards for AdriaNNa.

Taking 2nd place with a really good score of 46 is Jeremy. This is his fourth time in the honey this year, one of them being his 1st place in Week 4. This makes the seventh year in a row that he's gotten a return on his investment. Amazing! In 3rd place is Rick just a point behind at 45, getting his first mention of the year. He's another one who always seems to have credit in the bank for the next season. Taking 4th place is Jerry with 41, making it his third time ca$hing in 2025. And 5th place is a four way tie for coffee money between Bill, Eddie, Jake FSF and Randi all with 39. Honorable mention goes to Just Jared and Timmy from Las Vegas. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

In the overall points race to be crowned Champion, Jeremy moves up three spots to reclaim the top spot he held for five weeks running. AdriaNNa drops one place into 2nd. Terence V also drops one spot to 3rd. Jerry joins the top group again in 4th, and Kris remains in 5th for another week. Just off the pace is Steven.

Alrighty then we have Eleven weeks on the books with Ten to go. For the first timers, our season goes through the playoffs. It's still anyone's title to win. It might take a couple of perfect scores for some, but you can still turn it around if you Pick Em' Good the rest of the way.

Alrighty then II, The week after next is Thanksgiving, and we will be doing the Turkey Day Bowl Pool once again. You guess the winner of all three NFL games on Thanksgiving Day and the total points combined of all three games. Winner takes all or splits if the points are a tie. Entry is $20. Who's IN?

Okay, the Week 12 pick sheet and spreads will be out on Wednesday.

The Commish has both feet on the ground today so we'll get caught up on things.

WE HAVE OUR FIRST PERFECT SCORE OF THE SEASON! But more on that later.

In Week 8 taking 1st with 47 points was Sean T, getting his first 1st place since joining TWFP in 2024. He's had a a couple of placements already this year and now his horse finally came in. Second place was a tie between long time players Carson and Mike H both with good scores of 45. That's Carson's first mention of the year and Mike's second after taking 1st place in Week 1. 4th place was also a tie between Brother Leo and one of the other Mike's, Mike L, both just a point behind with 44. Honorable mention was a tie between Eric B and Gary C.

In the overall run for the roses, Jeremy remained in 1st place for the fifth week in a row. Steven moved up one spot to 2nd. James C also moved up one spot to 3rd. Terence V moved back into the top group in 4th, and Sean by way of his 1st place showing joins the top group for the first time in 5th. Just off the pace was Andy M. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

Week 9 gave us some chick power fireworks as AdriaNNa with two N's took 1st place with 42, and 2nd place was a tie between AdriaNa with one N and Kris, both with 38. That's the second time in the ca$i$h for both of them this year. 4th place was also a tie with Chris M and Jake FSF both scoring 36 points. Honorable mention went to Jay J.

In the overall race for the 2025 title, Webmeister Steven took over 1st place, for the first time ever I believe? Andy M got back into the lead group into 2nd. And 3rd place was a three way tie between James C, Kris and Terence V. Just off the pace after being in the lead for five weeks running was Jeremy. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

That brings us to Week 10 and OUR FIRST PERFECT SCORE OF THE YEAR! And doing it with style, taking 1st place for two weeks in a row, going 10 for 10 with the perfect score of 55 is AdriaNNa with two N's. WOO HOO!! APPLAUSE APPLAUSE APPLAUSE!!! She's having her best season ever and leaving no doubt who's the best handicapper in the household this year.

Taking 2nd place with a near perfect score of 54 is Richard L, getting his first mention of the season in style. 3rd place went to Jake FSF with 46, making it two in a row for him in the ca$hi$h. In 4th place was Terence V with 42 and his second placement of the season. And 5th place is a tie between husband and wife Carson and Randi, both with 41. Definitely a first for TWFP. Honorable mention goes to AdriaNa and my other brother, Larry A. Almost honorable mention goes to yours truly.

In the overall race to be crowned TWFP Champion of 2025 and get the coveted winners trophy for her vanity, by virtue of her two great weeks in a row, AdriaNNa surges into 1st place in the top group! Terence V moves up one spot to 2nd. Steven drops two into 3rd. Jeremy rejoins the top group again in 4th. And Kris drops two places to 5th. Just off the pace is James C. CONGRATS TO ALL THE WINNERS!
