Week 21 CON recap and TWFP 2021 Final Results
Well thethea,thethea,thethea, the that's all folks.........for THE Weekly Football Pool 2021!
Another out of the ordinary year to say the least with restrictions, resignations and enough drama to make a movie. And that was just the Raiders.lol
In this year's final week we had seven people pick both games correctly scoring 19 points. Last year it was only four. A weird coincidence to note, 22 people had Cincinnati and 22 had San Francisco. Hmmmmm
The total points scored this week were 88, 31 less than last year and 12 less than the O/U line.
Taking 1st place with the closest tie breaker of 90 was the Pride of the Woodlands, Jose C, his second first place this year. Grabbing 2nd place with a TB of 92 was Dr. Kevin T, getting his second mention of the season. 3rd place with 93 was the often mentioned Jozlyn, who came on strong the last two weeks. 4th place was one of the charter members of TWFP, Mike H with 95. And 5th went to Terrence V with 101, keeping him from being shut out this year. Honorable mention goes to Timmy from Las Vegas and Chon for getting both games correct. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!
And with no further adieu, we can make it official, in his rookie season in the pool, the guy who had it wrapped up after Week 20, one of the "J's" and Champion of THE Weekly Football Pool 2021, JARED M!!! Applause Applause Applause!!! He was in the top group for nineteen of the twenty one weeks and held the top spot for eleven of those weeks, the last nine in a row. It's a safe bet he had a good time and will be back next year.
Taking 2nd place the 2019 Champ and another one of the "J's", Jozlyn took a good run at it the last few weeks but couldn't quite close the gap. Settling into 3rd place and completing the 1-2-3 for the "J's" was Jake from State Farm.(not his occupation) The 2015 Champ was in the top group all but three of the weeks, and held the top spot two or three times.
Taking 4th is one of the guys who took a year off to re group in 2020, and has come roaring back in 2021, Gary T has had his best season yet. Him and Doodles got married this year, so she must be his good luck charm. : )
And climbing back into the top group, Chon had a good year and capped it off with a 5th place overall finish.
And in only our second year awarding a ca$hi$h boobie prize for last place, the honor goes to Pam Fish.
CONGRATS AGAIN TO ALL THE 2021 WINNERS!!!!!!!
Well I hope you all had as good a time as I did. I wish everyone could take home a slice of the pie, but like they say, sometimes you're the wheel, and sometimes you're the road. Better luck next year. I think me and my brother Larry A were running on flat tires in 2021.lol
Good job to you all for getting your picks in on time and making the job easier each year. As always, a YUGE thanks to Steven for building and maintaining the website. Final payouts will be going out this week.
Y'all enjoy the big game in two weeks. I'll be cheering for my LSU Tiger Joe Burreaux to win another title.
Only 221 days till the start of the season, so rest up and be ready.
Everyone stay safe and God Bless America!
