Thanks to all the guys for playing this year's football pick em contest. Congrats to the Champion, Nas. He joined the contest late, but showed very impressive picking in the last month of the NFL to take the prize. Nas receives a $100 gift certificate to Allen Brothers. Nothing like a little red meat to savor a championship.

Maybe we'll do something like this again for the NCAA hoops tourney and of course next football season we'll do it again in a different contest format.

I'm fairly happy hitting at 53%. I started the season poorly and gave up for a couple of weeks. I was fairly on since December.

I am suprised at the number of people who hit at a better than 50% rate. That seems like some superior picking for a decent sized collection of individuals.

Thank you for your largesse Coast. I did not know you put up the winnings on this. While it is appreciated, I don't think it is right. We should see if Mac can put us in touch with a sponsor for a complimentary $100 gift certificate as "friends of the program".

Good times and congrats Nas. I wish I had been more disciplined to get in a minimum 50 picks. as I was pretty close in the hunt (though honestly would have faile dmiserably in last night's game).

Coast, thanks for putting on the contest. It was a lot of fun and feel at 58.5% maybe I should play a few next year.

I will. This will surprise some of you but I don't eat pork or beef. I haven't eaten either of them since I worked at McDonald's in '98.

I don't know why you would get ill. When you think about it, everything we eat can be considered disgusting. What sick person in our collective history decided that it would be tasty to stick ground bits of an animal into its own intestines? I don't know but it was pure genious.

Some people talk about certain animals as being filthy. Hell, they are all filthy. In fact, the hands we eat them with are probably more filthy than the food....and I will not even get into what we with our bodies in moments of "passion".

Congrats to Nas, thanks to C2C for doing his hard work with compilation and awarding the prize. I hope I can make more time next season to qualify.

Congrats Nas, I am still amazed at the mention of what you put up on some other site one of the weeks (13-1) or something like that.

Coast thanks for tracking this throughout the year, good times.

Don't forget about how dirty restaurants are, even high end joints. The cooks in these places have dirty hands and could be picking their noses or their asses, or scratching their nuts. The food is probably the cleanest thing back there.
