Firstly, the season results are in, but after seeing the final
standings, I fell out of my chair. Suffice to say, it was close. CLOSE.
CLOOSSSSE. So close, I'm going to go over a couple people's entries for the
entire year to make 100% sure it's right. Banquet still on for tomorrow,
dress sharp. Patrick, get the ol' torch ready to pass.
In case anyone was wondering, Varl and Andrew had UW, and scored 10
points each for that pick. That was the ONLY points scored by the whole
group on that game. Almost as bad as Orygun-Indiana a few years ago.
That said, in a 3 game week, it can be safely assumed that hitting a
perfecta will be enough to win the week; this week's winner not only hit a
perfecta, but did it watching his team send SC to Las Vegas. He also
becomes the first person to win a week with a losing record; not what I
normally prescribe, but whatever works. Yessir, our final weekly winner for
2009, (I think it was the purple pimp suit):
Jack. Jack went 1-2, and racked up 120 points for a score of 20.00.
His high score was the perfect 50 for ZONA-SC, and this win takes Jack
to...well, we'll find out tomorrow when the final standings are released.
Congrats Jack, your satorial splendor will be remembered by all who read
this; just be careful, this is the end of the year, and that limo by
now...well, let's just say a gallon of Oxy Clean is on the ol' FSGP XMas
wish list.

I've got the limo all tricked out for the season winner!

After I took Nuweasel to Tommie's for a midnight burger you could tell we
both ate chili. I had the upholstery redone at a local shop with newspaper
batting. They threw in a set of spinners, a plastic Jesus on the dash, and
a bouncing head Chihuahua at no extra charge. Oh, and the smell is not too
bad. When the ocean breeze blows you can hardly smell anything.

I've got Kat winning by 7/1000ths of a point. That would qualify as
"close" and all its variants (CLOSE, CLOOSSSSE and such). That's if I
understand the scoring correctly, which I probably don't!

again, if I understand this correctly....I had Oregon winning 38-30
over Oregon State. The final was 37-33 so that was a pretty good
score. So the Ducks are down until LaMichael James goes 52 yards for a
TD and then the Ducks try for a 2 point conversion and fail, later
adding a field goal.

I think if the Ducks had gone for a regular PAT and made it and then
everything else had occurred as it did, that the one point would have
given me the win over Kat. Also if I hadn't yuk-yukked my way through
the first week, predicting 60-0 wins by LSU and USC.....

This whole contest was a blast! I'll wait for the official tally (I've
got Kat at 17.440 and me at 17.433 but that's unofficial) before
"conceding". :-) But a 2nd place would be pretty cool too.

Will we do bowl games?

It is considered taboo to reveal anything about the final scores
until everyone is seated at the banquet; we have no idea who won until
then. Everything else is just wild speculation and rumors.
BUT - it was VERY VERY close. VERY close.



> Will we do bowl games?

We did a Bowel FSGP once, but it kinda fizzled. I think once everyone
got into holiday time/shopping/vacations/etc, it just kinda lost
steam/interest.
I dunno, if enough people were interested, it's not hard to do a bowl
FSGP, actually rather easy. Maybe pick them all, Pac Bowl games count
double. If enough people wanted to do it, I would.
But first, let me get back to the Master Spreadsheet (capitlaized!) -
this was a nail biter, don't want to have to go to the review booth to put
another second on the clock.

I'd be interested if others are...

Yeah, I'm in. I find prognosticating non-conference and unusual
matchup games such as bowl games to be easier and more fun too.

I was really brilliant but I got two of three wrong. A little
perfection covers a lot of stupidity.

I took some chances because I wanted to finish in the top half for the
year.... Humble aspirations:)
