Another fun time was had by all TY...

1) so, how ' bout we consider 2015/2016 season ATS, instead of 90% of games 'calculated' just W/L?

ATS ' numbers ' are usually published by Monday latest of the week of the games...( for all to see/contemplate/study/google/analyze...)

I understand this could eliminate early week games....might have to only consider Saturday games...

2) once decisions made/ posted, they stand ( no Last minute injury reports, no nail biting over " star-players" who become ineligible for ' bad grades' , or just plain' bad decisions'...no waiting for Steely DanMan or FloridaBill to post)

---- FloridaBill?

3) at beginning of season, everyone who wants to participate ' donates' a white-elephant " item" to the Pool Commissioner, who " each week " awards that weeks' winner with one of the items ( hey, this can be done ' figuratively', not a literal donation.... At beginning of season, just " invent" your WhiteElephant....)

Example: Week 3, Lady D " cleans up" and is awarded the I LOVE ALABAMA t-shirt

( ahem...WHiTE ELEPHANT)


just some random ruminating...( what else would you expect ?)

Ha ha, wouldn't have a I Love Bama shirt in my house anyway so it's a good thing it's not real. What is ATS?

Whew, thinking I managed to hang onto my overall 3rd place spot behind Steel1man and Carson. Should have picked more wisely in the bowl games. Will do things different next year.
 
CONGRATULATIONS to Beach Runner as the 2015 BOWL CHAMPION. CONGRATULATIONS to steel1man for a wire-wire of the entire season. You are the GRAND CHAMPION for 2014-2015. Carson and Lady D gave good chase! I doubt that I do this next year, so I would be happy to pass the baton to anyone.
PS: I included all the seven championship picks.
