I think those that join, but stop picking at the end of the season should be required to clean SC's house after a Cincinnati loss as a punishment!
Too bad future generations aren't here to see all the great things we are spending their $$ on!!

Thank you again for all of your work this year Renegade! It is more appreciated than you know. It has been another fun year. And thank you SC for putting this on again. I hope next year we can even get over 20 people to join in and stick it out until the end.would be awesome! The more the merrier.

Since this is coming down to the last game (awesome!) and could end in a tie in wins, I wanted to clarify the tie-breaker since I realized (duh) that I forgot to spell it out in the original rules. In the past, we've next gone to whomever has the fewer # of losses (which also means the greater # of ties). This means if Viking's pick wins, then he wins. If archer's pick wins and she ties Viking, then she wins thanks to the tie-breaker of having fewer losses than Viking. Everyone okay with that? If not, take it up with management.
"Now, more than ever, the illusions of division threaten our very existence. We all know the truth: more connects us than separates us. But in times of crisis the wise build bridges, while the foolish build barriers. We must find a way to look after one another as if we were one single tribe.” -King T'Challa, Black Panther

We go with the Opening Line. I'm guessing since he was using talk-to-text it translated 4 to 14 and he missed that typo. I'll shoot him a message to confirm.
