2015 Bowl Pick 'Em - Final Standings

For me, I'd rather see Saban win another one than for Dabo to join the club.  Congrats to Chris Predieri.  He already has annual gambling winnings that have the IRS banging down his door.  But another $510 never hurt anybody.  Doesn't really matter to me since I'll be winning the Power Ball this week.  All payouts have been made as follows:

Chris Predieri	1st	$510
Curt Wininger	2nd	$250
Eric Fox	3rd	$150
Mike MacKim	4th	$100
Richard Tober	5th	$60

Congrats to Larry Frischen for winning the Angie Guidi Lack of Achievement Award with a pool low of 303 points.  The next WORST effort was 57 points away.  Staggering and shameful, Larry.  I'm proud of you.  I'll get your reward to my Dad to deliver to you.

Thanks everyone for another great pool.  Look for more involvement on the charitable front next year with Jerseys of Hope. I appreciate those of you who donated cash and jerseys to that cause.

Here's to Spring Training being right around the corner...

Updated Standings - thru January 2nd

Sorry for the delay...AGAIN.  I suck this year at commissioning.  Here are your scenarios heading into next Monday's championship game.  Top 3 are settled and Mike MacKim is guaranteed in the money.  Larry Frischen has locked up the Angie Guidi Lack of Achievement Award.  Congrats to Chris Predieri for salvaging a miserable college football season (for a Gators fan) by locking up his first Baddest Bowl Pick 'Em title.

For shits  & giggles, here's what it would have looked like if Oregon could hold a 31-point halftime lead against a TCU team playing without Boykin.  Sorry, Dad.  That $150 is going elsewhere.
