Strider Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 Sorry, it took me a little longer to crunch the season numbers this morning. For the final week of the regular season, Bong-Man, jb126, and Mrs. W, tied for the week's win. Detroit's loss was Bong-Man's gain. In the race for the Season Champion, not enough of my wacky picks panned out and I could not catch Junior for the season crown. Congratulations Junior!!!! Not only did I not catch Junior, but I finished last for the week, allowing jb126 to outflank me from behind and catch me for second place. Argh. In the last four years, jb126 has two season titles and two second-place finishes. She's better than any NFL prognosticator on TV! Once again, thanks to everyone for playing along and helping to make the NFL season fun and for making this one of the friendly and controversy-free threads in the Ramble On section. I will post the Week 17 numbers first, and then the final Season Standings with individual breakdowns. Week 17 Results Bong-Man: 12-4* jb126: 12-4* Mrs. W: 12-4* jabe: 11-5 Junior: 11-5 paul carruthers: 11-5 Walter: 11-5 LedZeppfan77: 10-6 zepscoda: 10-6 ebk: 9-7 Strider: 9-7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 Thanks Sean! I've delivered the information. It takes the sting out of losing our 3 fantasy football super bowls. I can't believe I was 8 better than last year. Junior has always beaten us here, that's why I brought him into the fold. Appreciate all of the bookkeeping. Looking forward to the playoffs picks. ✌?️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul carruthers Posted January 2, 2017 Share Posted January 2, 2017 A tip of the cap to you Sean for all the hard work crunching the numbers. Maybe next season, I'll copy Junior's sheet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebk Posted January 3, 2017 Share Posted January 3, 2017 (edited) Mazel tov Junior!! My goal is to finish above .500, so mission accomplished. At least that's what I keep telling myself As for copying Junior's picks, you know that's why he doesn't post them until 5 minutes before he has to... Oh, and thanks Sean!!

Yes, do what Strider suggested and make your picks. We know you wont pick the Lions. I am surprised they are getting as much love here as they are. I , myself had to pass on them. But i am going to bite with the points and buy them up to 13. If they cant cover 13, ouch. But they did "back in" Were 9-4 and lost last 3. Due to bad coaching and some due to the injury to their starting corner. The game they played in New Orleans is proof that on their best day they are plenty dangerous. And so are the Giants. Hell, I consider it a gift getting 4 1/2 AT Green Bay. I have no idea about that Miami/Pitt game. I just cant get a strong feeling on the spread pick.
