NFL Weekly Picks
Three-Peat!
It's Saturday
night and normally I would be getting ready to post the picks for the
week. But this week has been different! By the middle of the week I
would have read up on what's been happening in the NFL and I would have
sent out an email reminding everyone to get their picks in. A few days
later I would do a little research before making my picks and maybe send
out another email reminder. By Saturday I would be anxious to see how my
picks would compare to everyone else's, but if one of you hadn't picked
yet I would have to send out another email (or call you on the phone)
and would have to wait to print out my picks sheet! Sometimes though
everyone would have their picks in early enough that by now I would
already have the picks sheet in my hand. I would be analyzing it,
putting little dots beside the picks that are different than mine,
adding up the total number of people that differ on certain "key" games
so I could see who I might pick up a game or two on. Then all I would
have to do is wait until game time - but like I said, this week has been
different! What am I going to do? It's only been ONE week and I already
miss football!!
Last weekend we
were all getting ready for the Super Bowl! Poor
Todd
had gotten so sick that he had to cancel his Super Bowl party, but
Ken P.
stepped up and invited us all over to his house to watch the game -
Thanks Ken (and Becky)!!
We had lots of family, friends and FOOD and a great game to watch on the
BIG screen! What a game that was - down to the very last play. No one
was able to call that game early! And then it was over - another season
done. Kinda felt weird (or maybe it was all that food I ate) but it was
still fun watching the post game celebrations and interviews. What a
high it must be to celebrate such a victory - what an awful feeling it
must be to have lost! Football... the greatest sport on earth!
Shortly after
the game came the time to have our own little celebration there in Ken
and Becky's living room. It was time to crown the 2011-2012 NFLWP
Over-all Champion! Leading up to the play-offs it looked like a 3 man
race between Ken H.,
Jerry
and Ken P. But once the play-offs began the race turned in favor of only
one of them and by the Conference games the race to 1st place was
basically over! So there in his very own living room we crowned
KEN PARRISH
for the Third Season In A Row as our Champ! WOW, a Three-Peat! Two
year's ago he had to share the win with
Jason
and Stephanie,
last year he had to share it with me, but this year First Place is Ken's
alone! Congratulations, you are the undisputed Champ!
When there's a
winner, there's a loser and here at NFLWP we have a special place for
losers :-) Each year we have one final induction ceremony and induct the
over-all last place finisher into the
Corner of Losers. So without delay I
announce Steve Battenfeld
as the "Biggest Loser" of the 2011-2012 NFLWP season. As for the rest of

Here are a few
fun pictures from our Trophy Presentation:

year in a row!!

I guess this
means that the 2011-2012 NFLWP season is officially over :-( so sad! The
Draft is only 2 and a half months away, that's something to look forward
to - right?
Have a GREAT
off-season and thanks again for another fun year!!
