How'd We Do?

If you're a frequent NUCU reader, you've read about Harley and Adam's pool. They took a 1 game lead into this week. They differed with their closest competitor on only four games. I'll let Harley explain the rest:

"we won
it was miraculous. goodman/glantz had four games different than us - we had sd, they had den (sd - 7), we had tb, they had no (tb-13.5), we had ne, they had mia (ne -6.5), we had sf, they had hou (sf +1.5).
after yesterday's sd debacle, we were tied with three games left. miami was blowing out ne, so that meant we had to win the tb game and then the sf game (4 pm start). tb is up 7 basically the whole game. they then throw a td to galloway that is nullified by penalty, then punt. bouman sacked, fumbles, returned for the td and the cover which means it's all on the line with sf/hou. adam doesnt have directv, i do. even though i have 300 riding on the game, i can't even watch, it's so bad, i go to the gym for the first half. come back, it's 17-10 texans, on the phone with dave brown, i say, only way they tie this game is with a tony banks int, next play, boom, int returned for td, tie game. game goes to ot, the whole thing on the line, tony banks throws one up for grabs, picked, lateral, returned to the 20, nedney field goal wins the game and our pool."

Congratulations to Adam and Harley. And to me a little also. With a 4-3 record yesterday I improved to 43-28 on the season, a 62.66 winning percentage. And of those four games that determined the title this week, only one of those came across my desk. I picked Tampa Bay, and the rest, as they say is history.

If you see this man, call him a champion
