The dastardly, daring dervish Captain Caveman is back in 1st place after winning his last 7 picks. With a lock remaining, the championship is his to lose. We also have an interesting competition for 2nd and third, as the 3 folks with 19 points have used all of their locks, while the five with 18 each have one remaining--effectively, there will be a tie among any of those eight who get the Super Bowl correct. You all may want to study the regular-season standings and tiebreaker policy hard before the Big Game. :)

Corrections due ASAP. Good luck!

I'm thankful (and lucky) to be in this position, but dammit, this Super Bowl seems like the toughest one to pick in a long time. Of course, maybe I'm lucky that it's a toss-up... so many underdogs have won recently.

As an aside, I guess my lock is worthless since I own the tiebreaker. But who to pick?? Maybe I'll forget again, Zax...

*drumroll*

Congrats to Ralph-Wiggum for winning the top prize! He finishes with 23 points and a tiebreaker win over Mithridates (via regular-season score). 40% of the prize cashola cola will go to R-W, and 30% to Mithridates. Captain Caveman wins a 4-way tie over Monkeyskunk, Dr. Hook 'Em and Baroquen (also via regular-season score) for 3rd and will add 15% of the pot to his already-earned 15%. This is R-W's 3rd straight playoff #1 finish. His entry fee next year is raised to $40 (not really).

Ralph-Wiggum 23
Mithridates 23
Captain Caveman 19
Monkeyskunk 19
Baroquen 19
Dr. Hook 'Em 19
The E-chos 17
Rdog 17
Mr. Bob 17
Moghedian 17
Naednek 15
pr0ner 13
noxiousdog 13
Skinypupy 13
Tony Perkis 12
Mitma 11
Mr. Lem 9
Zaxxon 5

This brings CC within striking distance of the overall all-time #1 spot, held by The Meal (22 pts to 20), and vaults R-W into 3rd overall.

Stats and rankings are here. Please send in any corrections (not of the 'Oh, did I say Denver? I meant Seattle' variety) ASAP. R-W, CC,, and Mithridates, please send me your addresses for prize-sending purposes.

Thanks to you all for another fun season. I hope to see you all back next year!
