Final Standings
Final Standings and Account Balances for the 2009 NFL Pool.
Julian and Steve tied for 1st overall, so they will split the 1st and 2nd place prize.
Joe took 3rd overall, and won the suicide pool.
Steve took the 2nd half.
Julian took the 1st half.
Steve and Julian also won 3 weeks apiece, so they really were the big winners this year. Outstanding!
Congratulations to all of our winners this year and thanks to everyone for playing. For those that were pure donaters this year, THANKS! We’ll see you next year!
Down to the short strokes…
Updated Standings and Account Balances.
With only one week of regular season play left in our pools, things are really heating up!
There are only two players (Rich and Tino) left in the suicide pool, and neither of them have easy picks ahead of them this week. If they both pick winners or losers then they will split the money. But if only one picks correct he will get all the bananas!
The main pool is also pretty tight after Julian gave up some of his lead in the overall in week 15, but managed to hold on pretty well in week 16, so he has a fairly comfortable 4 point lead. Not impossible to give that up, but he’s probably OK. There are 3 players in position to win the 2nd and 3rd place prizes.
I kinda sucked it up for the second half points by giving up 4 points to Joe in week 16, so he now sits in the lead by 1 point. That race is wide open with 4 players within 4 points of the lead. This will be a crazy week, with lots of teams sitting their regular starters while lots of other teams are still trying to clinch their playoff spots, so anything can happen!
Good luck to everyone for the final week of play, and start getting ready for the playoff pool too!
Full Update
I’ve had a crazy few months with multiple computer failures and a long string of other unrelated computer issues that have prevented me from updating this site. That’s behind me now and I’ve finally managed to update the Standings and Account Balances.
You are probably well aware of it already, but Julian is having a banner season with 3 weekly wins under his belt, an easy victory in the first half, and a commanding lead in the overall competition. I was on the other end of that deal in the first half with no wins and a commanding grasp on the bottom of the barrel. fortunately I’ve turned that around somewhat and have managed a couple of wins and a thin lead in the second half. Here’s a summary of the winners of each week:
| Week | Winner |
| 1 | Robert Ballinger |
| 2 | Tino DiBattista |
| 3 | Jack Fraser |
| 4 | Julian Neale |
| 5 | Joe DiBattista |
| 6 | Julian Neale |
| 7 | Bob Lumley |
| 8 | Steve Ward |
| 9 | Adrian Neale |
| 10 | Steve Moore |
| 11 | Sean Phillips |
| 12 | Richard Powell |
| 13 | Sean Phillips |
| 14 | Julian Neale |
