Did one of his teams win the Mythological Title last night? I lost track after his 25th favorite team.

Also, if JSC croaks in the next month, does the runner up get willed the ball?

i think maybe next year, JSC should buy a football...sign it in some sort of fasion..and send it along to the next winner for them to hold for the year...they could sign it..and pass it along. etc etc...take a pic, post it with the winners of season's past. Of course, JSC would still keep the original..we'd just start a new one with the next winner getting a clean ball..receiving the signed ball and passing it along....


or something ...

Congrats on the win. Well deserved. I like the idea of the traveling trophy.

And MAJOR RACKS to 88 and everyone for running this. I think that I speak for all those involved when I tell you that you do an awesome job. It really adds to the season.

Thanks

Who won last year and before?
The Chief won last year. And MuchoBulls is the back-to-back non-qualifiers champion.

Prior year winners might be a problem. I remember sending a ball to Danimal one time. I'm not sure I have any records on the other winners. Seems to me that Snake won one time, but I could be wrong on that.


I won it one year. No wait, Frisco jacked me, ...never mind.

I do have a Wilson collegiate football courtesy of 88 in my closet...circa 2005.

Well damn. I just deleted all my historical spreadsheets about 2 months ago while cleaning up my hard drive. I had kept all past seasons spreadsheets.

88, a dig through the Pick'em Forum may help turn up some of the past winners. I will do a little checking there.

Ok, that didn't take long.

2007 – The Chief
2006 – peter dragon
2005 - Shaz

I have a hard drive at home that I removed from my old computer. I think it has all the previous winners spreadsheets on it too. Too much personal info on the drive though to send off to someone to check. Wonder if I can send it somewhere to get copied to DVDs.

Damn, my 50megs.com free web hosting site still had all my old files on there. Here are additional winners from years past:

2004 - Shine
2003 - Buckeye Mike Mc
2002 - Danimal

Ok, that's all I got. I ran it from 2001-2006. I don't have the 2001 winner anywhere. 88, I think you ran it 1999-2000.

Snake must have won it in 2000 because I remember putting him in my first year of running it as an auto qualifier for the finals as previous champ. That only leaves 1999, and I have no clue who won it then.
