I'll stick with my prediction of one round and out for the Pack, even after they looked like an actual playoff team on Sunday for the first time in a month.

Rick:

  I didn?t hear Jeff say anything about how his pro football team did ? maybe he can write a short essay about this over the weekend (it can begin: ?We did the best with what we had??) while Buddha, Fruiter, me, and the rest of PackerNation watch our team in the playoffs.

Greetings;

     And it just keeps getting more ridiculous for Mr. Winick - the Hawkeyes punked G. Tech last night in the Orange Bowl.  How about you give us schlubs a chance and just call '10 a success and play for the '11 season?

Rich,

For those who don't know - a number of us participate in a weekly NFL pool in which we pick the winners of all of the NFL games and rank them by confidence.  This year there were 3-4 teams that were at or near the top of the standings nearly all season.  Mr. B pulled into the lead a few weeks ago and looked to be fighting it out with Phil Kamp for the title.  But I was lurking in the shadows.  While I had stayed within the top 4 teams nearly the entire season, I had never been in first place.  In 3rd place coming into the final week, I adopted a strategy of hoping for a few big upsets.  Ultimately, it came down to Tennessee taking a late lead and then holding off Seattle to allow me to secure a 1 point victory.  In fairness to Mr. B, he had a great season.  And I'd like to think it was more about my putting together a great final week than Mark choking.  

You might also not know that the Kleins, the Blockers and the Winicks as well as Uncle Doug participate in a fantasy football league.  The championship pitted Andy's youngest, Jason, against yours truly.  Jason, who has been in the championship game all 3 years and the defending champion, put up a great fight.  But for the 2nd time in the 3 year history of the league, he ran into a buzzsaw in the championship.  And for the 2nd time in the last 3 years, I am the champion.  Bettr yet, in the consolation round matchups, my oldest Benjamin beat Mr. B and my youngest, Sam beat Andy.  A huge day in the Winick household.

Jeff
