All three remaining 1 loss entries lost on Sunday. Therefore they split the second place pot. You can see this "rule" in the fine print of the first post of the year back in August.
Congrats to Lincoln Barrett, Kevin Kelley, and Matthew Valcho for getting a little money back!
These three will split $410.
Once again thanks for playing. Look for an email in August 2011 to start the 2011 contest!

Week 14 Summary - We Have a Winner
Yes! we have a winner, and the winner is me! I finally broke through after 12 years and at least 26 entries. I learned a lot over the years and it finally paid off. Here are the rules I follow. It's tough to stick with these and in years past, when I deviated, I lost.
1. Never pick a road team.
2. Never pick a divisional game.
3. Never save a team for a future game.
I stuck with these personal rules most of the year (I played a couple divisional games) and finally reached the top.
There are still five in contention for second place. Kevin Kelley lost this week and he joins four others. Kevin sent an email and indicated he saved ATL for next week, plus he picked a division game (of course my rules are not Kevin's rules, but I wanted to point it out.)
Others who dropped out of second were Charles Semon, Chris Parker and Gabe Cate who lost for the second consecutive week.
Counts:
1 winner
5 in with a second chance
37 out

Week 13 Summary
Three losers again this week. Two from the second place bracket and one out of first place.
Matthew Valcho, my son, is out. He didn't pick much this year, so it's really my fault. I picked both of the loser for this entry. Also out is Tim Swigor, on his second and final entry. Both lost with the Dolphins.
Gabe Cate dropped into second place with the Chargers. The Chargers had been hot but lost to division rival Oakland.
Only two remain for the championship. Kevin Kelley and me.
Counts:
2 vying for first
7 in with a second chance
34 out
