[AZ BU Fan]

ALL HAIL SaintLouBrave22! ..........
See Details And Additional Winners Below!



Veni, Vidi, Vici... (I participated, I picked, I kicked everyone's arse!)

Home was where the heart was in Game 18, the last in the 2010-11 MVC Regular Season Game Pick Em Contest here on BF.com! For only the second time all season, all home teams won yesterday!

Evansville over Illinois State ........... Congrats to the Aces for a fine regular season. For ISU, playing marshmallows pre season is no way to go through the MVC! Wilkins comes up a little short vs expectations of BF.com-ers

Nortern Iowa at Creighton .............. Uneven year ends on a high note for BlueJays and their first year coach, and on a low note for the Panthers who had it going for a while after a terrible start. Note the importance of a good big man in the center for success in the MVC

Drake at Bradley ........................... Braves play best game in a looooooooooong time with smashing win vs the Dogs, who played like dogs too! Who wants to face the Braves in St Lou?

Wichita State at Missouri State........ Props to Cuonzo Martin and his Bears for holding off the Shocks to win the 2010-1 MVC Regular Season Title. WSU has a strong year, but need to win MVC Tourney to get to BIG Dance

Southern Illinois at Indiana State...... Congrats to the Sycamores who started strong this season and finished on a high note. Salukis season will challenge their AD to stay the course with Lowry

THANKS TO ALL FOR PARTICIPATING THIS SEASON!!

GOD (and the mods) WILLING, I WILL COMEBACK NEXT SEASON TO DO IT AGAIN!

[Da Coach]

Thanks AZ!
And congratulations SLB22!

[AZ BU Fan]

Unbeknownst by all, in a terrific display of leadership and integrity, DA COACH, recused himself from this contest during Game 1 due to being one of the MODS.

Didn't think it would be right to participate.

I know Da Coach really wanted to join in the fun, but stood by his guns!

Good luck in Saint Lou to the Braves, JL, and you DC!

Thanks,
AZ BU Fan

[Da Coach]

What an honor it is to be placed in the company of such a great American hero, Sarah Palin! Thanks.

[wily coyote]

AZ, thanks for all you did to put this together. That had to be alot of work and I think everyone enjoyed it that participated. What a great game last night. AW and DD makes you proud to be a Brave.

DC I think you should join in next season. Being a mod wouldn't give you anymore of an advantage then anyone else.

P.S. DC I'd rather have SP call me then the other two.lol

It is not that it gives me any advantage, and I probably wouldn't do very well. But it wouldn't look good if the administrator won the contest (especially since I am the only one who could go back and edit old posts!).

[jeffsu]

This was a neat contest, thanks for doing it AZ! Always appreciate the humor

[LittleBrave]

Congrats StL Brave & LightsOut!
I'll get y'all next season!

A word of advice - If you miss 1 week of picks, you don't have a prayer at a Pick 'em title! I have my newborn son to blame for that...but I can't blame him 'cause he's too darn cute! I'm sure StLBrave would've beat me by a game or two regardless.
