Wahooze Weekly Picks -- FINAL STANDINGS!

I almost completely forgot about this!  Luckily, Mike reminded me this morning, so we spent some time reviewing all fifteen weeks of picks and points, including the picks from the bowl games.

BOWL-O-RAMA Picks
Kendall -- 14 points
Pierce -- 12 points
Jeff -- 8 points
Mike -- 8 points

SEASON TOTAL
Kendall -- 116 (out of 210 total available points), 55.24%
Pierce -- 112, 53.33%
Guest Pickers -- 104, 49.52%
Mike -- 96, 45.71%

Turns out, Pierce and I are pretty good at this.  Pretty good, but not great.  Bottom line, we'd be making money in Vegas if picking college football games ATS were our job...  Our guest pickers put up a good fight, and some were definitely better than others.  But overall, nice showing.  And finally, Mike sucks at this.  Like really bad.  Embarrassing performance this season, really.

But speaking of the guest pickers, how did they fare?  Who hit the best percentage and has earned Wahooze lunch at the China King Buffet?

Kung POW!


Here is the ranking of our 15 guest pickers, based on percentage of total points against available points:
#1 Doug -- 12/16, 75.00%
#2 TJ -- 11/16, 68.75%
#3 Joe -- 8/13, 61.54%
#4 Charlie -- 9/15, 60.00%
#5 Rookie -- 10/17, 58.82%
#6 Sparkle -- 7/13, 53.85%
#7 Havens -- 7/14, 50.00%
#7 (tie) Caleb -- 6/12, 50.00%
#9 Jeff -- 8/17, 47.06%
#10 Phil -- 7/16, 43.75%
#11 Keens -- 5/12, 41.67%
#12 Ben -- 6/15, 40.00%
#13 Dennis -- 3/13, 23.08%
#13 (tie) Tripp -- 3/13, 23.08%
#15 Kato -- 1/8, 12.50%

Congratulations to Doug, our best guest picker of the year!

Congrats also to TJ, Joe, Charlie, Rookie, and Sparkle, who get to join Pierce, Doug, and myself in Las Vegas.  The rest of you have to stay home with Mike.



And just for gits and shiggles, here's a look at whose guest pickers performed the best:
TEAM KENDALL -- 12/16, 8/13, 10/17, 5/12, 6/15; 41/73 total, 56.16%
TEAM PIERCE -- 11/16, 7/14, 6/12, 8/17, 3/13; 35/72, 48.61%
TEAM MIKE -- 9/15, 7/13, 7/16, 3/13, 1/8; 27/65, 41.54%

So not only did I win the season-long Wahooze Weekly Picks contest, my friends proved to be the best guest pickers!  Mwah-hah-hah-hah-hah!  Back to the drawing board, Pierce.  And Mike... just give it up, dude.

Doug, let us know when you want to dine with the Wahooze staff.  Mike will hang up your coat for you.

Thanks to everyone who participated in the picks, and good luck on the Wahooze Bracket Contest, coming soon!
