Tom I think if anyone new wants to join you have to send them an invite . Might be also worth sending out reminders to last years participants . No big deal if people miss out on tonight’s game

I tried to find the UIC Pool, but was unable. What is the name of the Pool on that website?

I'm sorry I didn't reach out for new invitees before Thursday, but I had a very busy time with other things last week. I can send you an invite Merrill, and anyone else who wants to join, message me your email address and I'll get right on it. You'll miss the first week of scoring, but at least you can ride out the rest of the season.

Leaderboard heading into Week 17. Who's that nipping at my heels?
It's going to be a wild finish, I suspect. Good luck to all!

I think that it goes through the playoffs, doubling the win points?
Hopefully I am not done yet....

I'll take congrats for the regular season, thanks Gino, but the contest continues through the NFL playoffs. The weekend games are already up on Superbru.

Just putting it out there that the contest isn't over yet, it continues through the playoffs. It wasn't clear to me either as they hadn't put up the next slate of games until today, but then they wouldn't have known who the teams were otherwise. Soldier on!

Hey 10f—-looks as if you have most wins locked up, so I owe you a $50 wager. Congratulations on a long season of picking winners! I always enjoy this contest—-probably my favorite that we do. Can’t explain my late season collapse —somewhat uncharacteristic , but it happened.
I will transfer the $$ to the account listed in the super bowl contest, not to be confused with the squares thing.
Always a treat to compete @ UIC This should clean me up here
Keep capping those Euro runners—-looking forward to late spring and summer in the UK—-think about a visit for the Royal Ascot meet when things clear up!

Thanks spider, very generous of you! I see Spanky made a similar offer, I had forgotten about both of them. I expected you, italianstallion, tc, and hugh to be rolling past me late, didn't think the attack was coming from within my own house...lol. MadameBlum likes TB, and I'm sticking with the Chiefs, so there will be a clear cut winner.
I'm going to handicap Dubai every Thursday through Super Saturday (mostly the turf races w/some euros) and of course the World Cup card later in March. Keeping an eye on the UK all-weather races too, just to see who is active. Given good weather, turf racing on the flat returns to Doncaster on March 27-28, and slowly ramps up from there. Not sure if Ireland will go earlier, they did last season.
Royal Ascot is a bucket-lister for me for sure, along with The Masters. I'd actually like to visit some of the other UK tracks too, like Newmarket, York, Goodwood, and some of the smaller tracks as well. Cherokeescot told me that Ayr (Scotland) is fun for the 3-day Gold Cup Festival in September. So many tracks, not enough time. I may have to move there...

Congratulations to MadameBlum for winning the league championship in UIC Superbru this season! Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers led her to victory, so given her long disdain for Brady and the Patriots, the irony is strong with this one. Good job Colleen!
