    entered the final day 2 back and tied for 6th

    hard to make up ground because I have no way of knowing what people ahead of me were picking.

    Holy shit yis! You finished in 2nd place! How's that work? Will you still get a prize since the other two guys tied for 1st? Technically they would have to split first place and you would get 2nd place money! Damn man, 1 lousy point from a 3 way tie! Nice pick'in man!

    Thats all right bro, its hard as heck to compete against a million people and win. Cant say I ever cam as close as you, though I did come in 11th overall on the Baseball challenge a couple of years ago.

    yeah it's an impressive finish but in the end someone who didn't play has as much to show for it as I do.

    It's just so frustrated to have spent all that time and come so close.

    I never had the top score of any day but my scores were fairly consistent.

    I was shorted a point but the others were as well. The female shot putter that cheated was stripped of her gold but ESPN refused to change the result of the pick.


    Two guys I was battling for a while wound up falling apart at the end.

    DAD229 and shuyande24
