Last year’s title ultimately came down to one play. Damn you Russell Wilson!

Whachoo talkin about, Willis?

God bless you, Russell!

Funny thing was, going into that last game, and knowing that you were my biggest threat, I looked back at your pick when those 2 teams had played earlier and almost changed my pick, as a defensive move. Man, I was really kicking myself for not having done that until that play.

I would have made some serious hay had Tampa Bay not lost. Everyone picked them, but I was the only one who went high on confidence points...

I forgot all about it and only managed to get picks in on the late games. Doubt I would've caught WBT but I may have been able to hold on to second place. Ah well, I had fun anyway. Thanks for setting it up.

Thanks.

Oh, and I also won the contest.

Looking forward to next year.
