Please join me in congratulating query49 on winning this year's predictions contest.  This season didn't turn out the way most of us hoped (or even thought), but that shouldn't take anything away from this accomplishment.

I'm wondering if we should have username flair to signify the previous year's winner.  Querty49 could wear it as a badge of honor throughout the year demonstrating their predictions prowess.

Other than that, I can't say I'm sad to see this season in the rear view mirror.

Thank you, George, for managing this process all year.  

And Qwerty ran away with the competition.  It wasn't even close.  Congratulations.  

I finished 4th, but would have been happy to finish last in a much better season.

Ha ha let those two other guys query49 and querty49 have their badges. I don’t need no steenking badges!

I too would rather have finished last in exchange for a winning season and a bowl game.

I never figured out the scoring system here but I hear the results are being contested in several states.

I’ve had season tix since 1973 and this was the first year I can recall not coming up for a game. Scheduling planes and hotels is a bit too much with our kickoff times subject to the whims of TV.  I may not renew and just join the armchair brigade.

George, thank you for running the prediction contest.  Well done.

Now, can you please remove the widget from the top of the home page.  It is giving me PTLSD (Post Traumatic Losing Season Disorder).

Hate to break it to you, but you'll see another one just like this one, or worse, in the coming season.
