In Memoriam Danny Lee (BENDER2)

[teeman8r]

there are numerous ties that take the spots...

you are number one in our hearts.

[Red Badger]

It was not a good year for my prognostications.

Too many upsets, players out with covid and injuries out the wazoo!................and then there was Antonio Brown............

[Red Badger]

Don’t feel bad. Mine were too. They had too many upsets and too many covid/injuries to deal with...................

[Phlap]

So, do I get a booby prize for being last? Just askin.

[HombreSecreto]

A respectable finish - I’ll take it!

[Rummyfan]

Man, my picks have been horrible this year.

Mine too! As I said a week ago, I'm glad we are not putting any money on these picks because I would be well in the red.

I heard a rumour that ‘Bama lost

[WhoisAlanGreenspan?]

You’re not actually last place. There was a number of people who didn’t make picks in the last four or five weeks that I didn’t include in the totals.

Corrections

Week 13

Impy: 10
Lazlo: 9 (his picks were on the week 12 thread)
Texas: 9
Pete: 8

Didn’t check them all but tt seems like you were off by 1 game this week (that Pete, Texas and I all picked)..IDK which one..

Week 16

Impy: 11
Big: 11 (he changed 2 picks, wisely)

Looks like you were maybe off 1 game here too, one Big and I picked.

Thank you so much, clearly you did a great job and it seems that Chuck Allen is our champion, Everyone feel free to check your own results, let me know if anyone wants a manual recount. I’m glad the margin is fairly wide! I’ll get the crown ready.

I’m sorry I completely dropped the ball after my mom was hurt, then I got behind and just didn’t have the energy. I really need a better way to tally, we should do yahoo next year or something ;-)

I owe a big thanks to you guys that helped out

WhoisAlanGreenspan?, Mmichaels1970, Red Badger, plus Pete and whoever idea it was to name the thread after Bender’s memory.

Playoff thead will be posted tonight or tomorrow!!!!

Your corrections all prove true Impy and moehoward, sorry guys.

I've played around with some fairly complicated spreadsheets in the past but I started out just making a html table. Then I figured it might be nicer to copy your html and then I decided to make an Excel spreadsheet to make posting here much easier.

So it turns out I made a lot of errors before I switched from counting the digits on my hands to a truly digital system.

I'll post the revised numbers in the wildcard thread. That way you could open both tables in different tabs to compare.

If anyone is interested I believe I can share a copy via email.
