Well it looks like THE Ohio State and THE Arizona State both laid an egg in their respective championship games and I'll just leave it at that - the pain is still too fresh.
Class Act Auburn Class Act ! |
Really ESPN this is the best you could do ? |
So the pool is finally and mercifully over for the year and for the 104 of us who did not win a penny please take a moment and print out the gold star and wear it proudly because after all YOU TRIED !
WEEKLY WINNER:
In the final week of the pool the husband and wife team of Mr and Mrs Kevin Castro came out on top with 12 out of 14 wins. Kev hand over that $100 to Pattie ASAP before somebody gets hurt cause we all know you had NOTHING to do with the selections !
WEEKLY LOSER:
And in last place this week is the pool's eldest and most esteemed member Robert Kilian who managed just 3 correct guesses. Rob has been a tad distracted since Dewey lost to Truman and still can't get over the fact that they admitted Siam into the League of Nations ! Oh and he wants all those damn kids off his lawn too !!!!
OVER ALL WINNERS AND PJA LUNKHEAD:
FINAL PAYOUTS
Here's how the final money worked out for the pool this season. We had a grand total of 133 PAYING Poolsters this season (But for the 1st time ever in pool history we had one welsher - he's a fella who lives in Mexico and his name rhymes with Flan Balka - shame, I think 17 weeks is plenty of time to send in your measley $50 even if it is via a Mexican mule train !) Anyways I digress here we go 133 x $50 = $6650 in total pool money then you minus out the pool hosting fees of $412 and the weekly winners of $1500 which left us with a grand total of $4738 for the final pool pot which will be distributed thusly:
We had a 2 way tie for first between Don Reisinger and Mark Murrietta, so they will split the 1st and 2nd place money and will each get $1421.20 - they plan to take their winnings and open a specialty shop in West Hollywood that sells nothing but fish net tank tops, size medium neon Dolphin shorts, and construction boots. Good luck boys !
The 3rd place money goes to Billy Schauerman who will pocket $947.60. Bill plans to take his money and build a tree fort with an elevator so his dog Houdie and him can in his words "just hang out and chillax without my Mom yelling at us"
In 4th place we had a tie between the 2 most disinterested pool members Dave Bowser and Billy Fulton - they each will get $284.28 - Fulton was the last entry in the pool this season and I believe Bowser used Autopick for about 11 straight weeks.
And in last place the recipient of sport's greatest and most coveted traveling trophy - The Pewter Jack Ass - is Clayton Oldham plus as a bonus and to re-enforce his stupidity he also gets the nifty sum of $379.04 - talk about being paid to be a dope !
