    I've been in the same boat. I needed some oddball wins to make any move and they've all failed! There's always next year!

    I think the possible points, if someone picked perfect (barring tie games) is 256.

    It's a mad race for the trophies!!!!

    And why would anyone on a top rated team feel the need to cheat. NFL needs to make a statement...

    They'll pay the fine with the Superbowl winnings. THAT will teach them!!

    All down to the last game of the season. Couldn't ask for a better opponent. Good luck!

    Thanks for hosting Bill and congratulations to everyone that got a trophy.

    I guess the only way for me to get something besides third is to go for last.

    Thank all of you!!!

    By the way, it looks like SpaceMaN has joined an elite group to have won all levels of the contest (1st, 2nd, 3rd, and last). If my records are correct, only SkippyDO23 has done that.

    Wow all 4 trophies huh. Only took me 13 years or so!

    Thanks everyone. Seems the less I pay attention, the better I do at sports things. I won a fantasy league and got 2nd in another. Go figure

    Trophy update: We are still in the works on ordering them. Not to worry! We have had some personal health issues with our extended family and their health has been on our minds a lot.

    For those who usually participate in the NCAA tourney - you know by now that it is cancelled. I declare the Oregon State Beavers as national champs.

    Wow - time has flown Covid-style. We are still working on the 2019 trophies. Don't lose hope! And I'll get the 2020 game thread loaded this weekend. Just under a month until the first game of the season!!!!
