Thanks David for taking the initiative on this. And it's a good cause:

Houston Texans
Seattle Seahawks
LA Chargers
Chicago Bears

Usually we have over a hundred people playing. Charge $10 and we have half a dozen and counting.

It's been five long years since I prevailed to win this trophy. If it would promote more participation, I would consider donating this as a rotating award.


The plate reads

Dead Ass Last

If I enter this year, I might not come in last and destroy my reputation.

Technically ass-half would be more accurate.

Wow, I was thinking the same thing.

Only 11 contestants. Pot is $110. That's $55 for Safe Haven and $55 to be split among the winners. However, since it's such a small pot, I'm going to change it up a bit from what I originally posted. I'm going to donate the $55 to Safe haven out of my own pocket and leave the prize pot $110. I'll post the payout amounts in a few minutes. Any objections?

Not that I will ever win a football pool, but if I do I'm good with donating my payout.

How about paying first and second place 65/35? Any objections?

How about donating the whole pot and we'll play for fun?

By the way, did the Houston coach remember to tell his players that this was a playoff game? What a stinker. That was a pick I will cherish for many years to come.
