Of the 38 who responded with an "I'm in", only one of us managed to pick nine straight winners. Congratulations Drunkard!

And, pretty much like our 2018 football season, this elimination contest is done.




Oh, one other thing ...




Basketball starts next week. Go Monarchs!

Did I hear it right? You're going to do a similar contest for basketball?

I could see this elimination contest format being adapted to CUSA mbb conference play, and think it could be fun.

I'd be willing to handle the bookkeeping duties. (The main challenge that I foresee would be in getting picks timely submitted between the Thursday and Saturday games.)

But I will defer to Grommet. It's his brainchild.

Carry on my wayward son. If you have an idea on how to make this for for bball, go on ahead.

As your moderator and champion, you could just limit it to Saturday games.

Congrats Drunkard! How 'bout them Niners!
