Week 20 recap and 2018 Final results
Well ladies and gents, THE Weekly Football Pool is a wrap for the 2018 season.
Couple of corrections for yesterday, one effects the weekly outcome, the other has no bearing. My laptop battery went kaput right after the first game started and I had no charger with me, so I couldn't do anything till I got home. But with the debacle that happened in the first game, I wasn't any kind of a mood for football.
So, ChrisC had picked the Rams but flubbed and gave them 0 instead of 10 points. Given that he only had one choice, as the Pats were his 9, he gets the 10 points for that game and is one of the people who got both games correct. Any other week he would have been SOL. The scores on the website have been corrected and reflect the final totals.
The other was Chon's tie breaker which I entered as 110, but it should have been 118. It's a moot point since he only got one game correct, but I like to keep things on the up and up.
We had seven people get both games correct. Last year we had eleven. The total points for both games came in at 117. Our CON week 20 winner Randi had it right on the number and takes 1st place all by her lonesome. Her first, 1st place this year and third time in the honey.
Taking 2nd place with his TB of 123, -6 was ChricC, his second mention of the year. 3rd place with a TB of 110, -7 was CrisE., his second in two weeks and fourth time this year in the DOH! 4th place went to Joe with 107, -10, his second mention, and for the consolation prize we had a tie between Kris and Craig with 90, -27. Honorable mention goes to Joy just one stinking point off at -28. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!
And with the most total overall points of 600, The Champion of THE Weekly Football Pool 2018 is Mike M! He took over the top spot in week fourteen and had it locked up by week 19. Congrats on a great season MikeM!
Taking 2nd place was a new comer to the pool, Kris. She got back into the top five last week and had a perfect week 20 to finish as runner up.
Taking 3rd this year is the husband and wife team of Barbara & Ben and their first top five finish in TWFP.. 4th place went to last years 3rd place winner, Cris E. He had two good weeks in a row to propel him in to the final ca$hi$h. And taking 5th place spot was the often mention Joy. She was honorable mention last year. This years honorable mention goes to our 2015 Champ, JakeFSF, just one stinking point out of placing. Shows how important the one point game can be after 20 weeks. CONGRATS AGAIN TO ALL THE WINNERS!!!!!
Good job everyone getting yours picks in and making the job even easier AGAIN this year. And a YUGE thanks to my son Steven for maintaining the website and keeping things running so smoothly. I would be lost without him.
I hope everybody had a good NFL season in spite of the player nonsense again, and a fun time in TWFP 2018. Thanks to ALL for the props! Hopefully you all return next year. If you have anyone that might want in TWFP 2019, have them send me an email and I will add them to the list for the announcement.
Enjoy the big game in two weeks. I will be on an island somewhere, anywhere, with no contact to the outside world. And get your picks ready, the first game of the 2019 season is in 227 days. After some hou$e keeping, the final checks will go out in a week.
F Dat,
Larry E.
