ChileBear Posted December 30, 2008 Report Share Posted December 30, 2008 Great job Bearfan2000. Seemed like were were chasing you all season! Enjoyed it Pix. Thanx for taking the effort to set this up and keep it running. Look out next year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BearFan2000 Posted January 2, 2009 Report Share Posted January 2, 2009 Thanks Pix for taking the time to run the contests and this board you do a great job as to all the admins of this site You all are a credit to Bears Nation. Thanks Chile, both the margin and the pickems were competitive. Always entertaining If it wasn't for the hot start on the season in the pick'ems I don't think I'd have finished in the top three. Congrats to both you and Bowlingtwig. Wining the survivor pool with only one loss in 17 weeks is pretty darn good. Looking back I wish I had picked the Lions opponents for all but 3 weeks of the season (since they play Bears, Vikes, and Pack twice). It would have made it easier lol. Oddly it's almost easier to pick against the spread than it was straight up. With the margin and survivor pools I tried to pick the upsets early and save the strongest teams for later but that doesn't always pan out. Looking forward to next years. Hopefully this time next year we are still rooting for our Bears. For now GO EAGLES Bear Down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was very competitive once again this year and I am still speechless on how I did in the Pickems. I have never done that well before. Thanks for getting the payment out so fast. I have already received and will post what I get on here as soon as I get it in the mail. It will probably be a couple of weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be in Tampa for the Super Bowl--but not to attend, but visit my mom and Siter who ives there. I hope to take in some of the free festivities, if those exist! And I'll wear my Bears' stuff just to show I'm a fan of the greatest team. I look forward to beating you next season, if Pix will again make the sacrifice!!!
