Predict the Score Contest - Final Results (2005)
 

I tried to wait for Alamo to compile the results so I wouldn't have to toot my own horn, but he seems to not be around this year. Here are the final results of the 18-week contest. (Didn't have the energy to compile the one-week results for 75 people!) Apologies to alamo for the format here which won't be up to his standards.

Some praise for fellow predictors
 

chris_in_sunnyvale, you went against the crowd for some awesome predictions early in the year.

texpat, you made a nice long steady move upward in the second half of the season.

dr, you impressed me with the way you put your predictions out there early, not waiting to see what the competition was doing. You motivated me to try to do the same at least half the time. (Patchick was a wait-and-see-er who finally "went for it" in the final prediction week.)

alamo, thanks for the excellent organization. I hope you're still out there somewhere!

(and Scarecrow, I think I'll miss you most of all!)

Seems like such a looooong time ago. I had forgotten about this, probably due to the abrupt ending to the season.

Thanks for noticing my slow and steady ascent to "near' the top.

"IF" only we had a couple more games, I might have caught you.

CONGRATS

tied for 13th, hopefully i can improve upon that this year

there was one week where i took the max penalty because i forgot to submit my prediction.

what do you play for the Colts? You're whining and making excuses. Face it you came in 13th place. Better luck next year.

I am the Miami Dolphins of Pats predictors :(

Regards,
Chris

Almost forgot about that max penalty. Still, it's a better option than being out for the year, as happened to so many. Remember, you came in 13th out of like 100 contestants!

Hey all. I haven't had the time or energy to post in ages, the workload is just crazy lately. Saw this post and had to stop in and say congrats to ShakaDave and thanks to Alamo and hope we can do it again. Best wishes for a great summer to everyone. D

I'll remember this year as the first to get a perfect score.

Patriots - 31
Falcons - 28

Congrats again shaka. Many joined in, but only 20 finished. I hope we do it again with more involved.

It's a long season, even for a dedicated fan.
