Re: hjsteve is THE track expert!

I accept this victory with total humility, except to point out that by my count, I had 23, not 22.

We all know it's mainly luck for any and all of us in these deals but it sure was fun. Thanks, Tafnut.

Re: hjsteve is THE track expert!

Yeah, I think I shorted everyone one, because I count 20 for me now. I vehemently protest your 'luck' comment. I, for one, spent way too much time on my picks! I prefer to see my 7th place finish as being in the top .000001%-tile of all the people who COULD have entered.

Re: hjsteve is THE track expert!

It is interesting 'the Bible' did so poorly... in another prediction. They didn't do very well compared to the participants in this contest - http://www.athleticslinks.com/contest.html , either (out of 66 participants, 20 beat them). Time for T&FN to get someone else to do the form charts for them, perhaps?

Re: hjsteve is THE track expert!

Seriously, if the 11 of us worked on it together, we could have done phenomenally. I am impressed that you guys were into it enough to even enter. I know that that I am an inveterate tafnut, but it's a little comforting to know that at least 10 others on the planet are as whack as I am.
