I want to apologize for not giving the final update yet, however early Sunday night my grandpa fell into a coma. He lives about 3 hours from me so my wife and I drove up Sunday night and stayed till the evening Monday, than I had to work today and what was supposed to be a 2 day job, turned into a one day job so I just got home after a 12 and 1/2 hour day, and tomorrow I have my bowling league, which I tried to get one of our subs to bowl for me but they can't so I have to go to that. I promise to have the final updates in by Friday night because I may just be too tired to do it Thrusday. Than I will mail out all the winnings by Monday or Tuesday of next week. Thank you for understanding.

Haha, yeah I don't gamble either. I went to Las Vegas with my wife for our honeymoon. I didn't gamble a single dollar there.

Thanks for all the well wishes, a little update. My grandpa is out of his coma but it still doesn't look good, I do take comfort in knowing he is 84 years old and has had a very long and happy life, and that for a brief 5 years I had the privledge of bowling with him every Tuesday and even helped him win that bowling league one time in the 22 years he bowled there. He was like a little kid that got a puppy for Christmas.
Here is the update from last Sunday and if I have time and am still awake I will do the final update in another post. If I am too tired I will do it tomorrow night. So in no paticular order the scores from last week.
Coinsearcher83 - 81.5 Specksynder - 87.2 Murrellington - 81.38 googoo - 102.84 Nod2003 - 79 Chris Beatie - 81.3 Blueszone - 81.78 Docsfishn - 61.48 Wrestling135 - 63.62 Stevex6 - 61.44 Jdavis18 - 99.94
So week 17 weekly prize goes to our Champ googoo with a score of 102.84. googoo the champ was lead by Eli Manning with 33 + points, and had 4 other players in double digits. There is no low score of the week since our champ was crowned last week. The gutsy call of the week goes to all the people in the contest, when I suggested this contest I was very skeptical if I would get enough participation to make it work, but everyone came to play every week and put the effort in to make the game as fun as possible. You can't put a price on this kind of effort and entertainment and I thank you all. The final point totals and prize allocation update will come later tonight or tomorrow.

Geeessh 61 points! ... apparently I didn't have too much left in the ol' tank (a last place finish in Week 17)! => man, I was a bit like the exhausted marathon runner that stumbles into the stadium to do her final lap  , but ends-up wetting her pants and then crumples into a heap a few yards before the finish-line!  ... however, I totally agree => excellent effort by everybody this year (hopefully we can all do it again, next year)!

wow, my guys came to play again last week. I didn't think I did that well. I thought Jdavis crushed me very fun. pretty lame games yesterday. The first half of the texans game was fun until the romp started to happen and the saints game was fun until they ran away with it. 2 more games on today that will hopefully keep my mind going. Going through some major craziness at my household right now, so anything to keep my mind off of real life is great.
