Well it was looking like we might have a repeat winner after the Sunday games. But like it can happen in TWFP on Monday night, someone comes out of nowhere and moves past everyone to take the lead. And with two games being played, it was likely to happen.

Doing that and taking 1st place by way of his 10 and 8 pointers tonight was Terence V with an strong score of 46. He's off to another good start in 2024 after taking first in Week 10 last year, a couple of 3rds, and ending up in 5th overall. In 2nd place with 45 is Jake from State Farm(not his occupation) just a point behind the leader. A good start for our 2015 Champ too after have a so-so season in 2023. Tying for 3rd, both with 42 points is our 2015 runner up Mike H, and last weeks winner and last years runner up Victor! That's make two weeks in a row for both of them landing in the ca$hi$h. And all alone in 5th is Rick with 40. Honorable mention goes to Carson. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

In the overall points race for the 2024 title, Victor remains in 1st for another week. Maxx moves up one spot to take 2nd. Adrianna with two N's stays in 3rd. Dropping three spots into 4th is Jared M. And moving up into the top group in 5th is Mike H. Just off the pace is Carson and Randy with Y.

So far it's been a very smooth ride for the Commish with everyone getting their picks in. Hasn't helped my scoring any, but it's nice not scrambling on Sunday mornings. Thank you all for that.

Next week is the last week that we allow people to get in the water, so if you have anyone, you know the drill.

The spreads and pick sheet will be out on Wednesday.

Okay then,

Week 2 is history..................

Taking 1st place this week with a really good score of 47 is last years runner up for the title, Victor. He had it wrapped up after Sunday night, so he got to sit back and see who would come in 2nd thru 5th. And that was Jared M with 45 who came out of left field with his 9 pointer and leap frogged everybody into 2nd. Taking 3rd with 41 was our webmaster Steven. 4th place went to first year player Richard L with 39, and 5th went to one of our founding members Mike H with 33. Honorable mention goes to Randi just a point off the pace at 32. CONGRATS TO THE WINNERS!

In the overall points race to be crowned Champion of THE Weekly Football Pool 2024, taking the early lead we have a tie between Jared M and Victor. 3rd is also a tie between Adrianna with two N's and Maxx with two XX's. And all alone in 5th is Randy with a Y. Just off the pace is David R and Jim K.

This week we have two MNF games with Jax @ Buffalo and Washington @ Cincy.

And the usual reminder, people can still get it the pool up to Week 4, in case there's anyone sitting the fence. After that, the pool will be closed.

Alrighty, the spreads will be set and the pick sheet sent out in the morning.

Okay, My Thursday game pick is Buffalo for 5.

I don't usually send out Thursday emails except for my pick if I'm playing the game. I didn't want to make the Week 1 recap too long, but there's a few more things to mention.

Let's all welcome to two newest players to jump in the pool, James C and Richard L. And as is the custom, thanks for your donation.

We have 67-69 entries this year, I'm still waiting to see if two of them are going to stick. If they are not participating by this Sunday, the lines (read) the lines

The pool is still open to new entries until Week 4. After that, it's closed and the 2-5 payouts will be determined. 1st place gets 125 marbles a week.

So if you have anyone else that wants to get in, or return, tell them to send me an email. They still have to pay the full $125 and they get the average score for the three weeks they weren't in to keep them in the running for the overall. Some of us would be happy to take that deal after week one. SO, if you have anyone else that wants IN, have them email me and say the two magic words, I'M IN!

Alright, second place luck to everyone and remember, if you want to win, you gotta Pick Em Good!
