RESULTS OF WEEK #24 (GREY CUP PICKEMS)

[barbk]

No one picked Toronto for the pickems for the Grey Cup game, so everyone stays the same in points from week #23.

Congratulations to ichabod crane with 58 points in 84 games.

Hope to see everyone for next year, hopefully our Blue Bombers will have a better outcome for next season.

Thanks Barb for your endless commitment to this forum. Without you everything would be a disaster.

We are more than thankful and blessed to have Barb contribute time and effort here both on the forum and the Pickems contest.  No one could run it better than Barb and we appreciate you greatly Barb.

Congratulation to Ichabod Crane for being the winner in the 2024 contest. Excellent predictions Ichabod!

Thank you too for everyone who participated this season.  You all make the forum interesting and the best place to discuss our team.

Stay tuned for the 2025 Pickems contest details.

Interesting note: Riderfans' best picker only got 54 (maybe 55 incl GC, they haven't released results yet).

Also, 3down's best picker only got 54 (probably 55 incl GC).

Looks like WPG fans know how to pickem better than anybody!

Great job handling this once again. 

Congratulations to ichabod crane on first!

Not sure who was actually supposed to be handling this for winning last season's pick-ems pool, but I have not received or heard anything about the Shoen jersey delivery AT ALL yet since the end of the CFL season! 🫨 Like it went into some black hole!

Nobody even asked me what size I need! I would require a Large size if there is a choice.

Let me know what's going on here as very odd or is it still backlogged with Canada Post somewhere? Who actually mailed it if it was even sent earlier? I am receiving other Canada Post parcels already, so should not be due to that but who knows?!

The whole WFC seems to have gone on vacation to work off the GC loss funk.  Understandable.  Even this forum was half as busy as the other prior post-loss years.

I wouldn't worry about it too much.  Probably everybody else thought it was the other dude's job!  Mods will sort it out, I have no doubt.

We have responded to Ichabod Crane through a PM to his request and we are investigating the situation.

The Canada Post strike has been a disruption but we remain confident the winner will receive the prize he won.

They maybe were in vacation mode already in the second half of the Grey Cup! Epic collapse. Prior two seasons was close games so just part of sports, but this was a total team collapse by both coaching and players. Still don't know who is to blame for sending Collaros back in with a sliced finger on his throwing hand?! Wilson could have at least run around to make something happen. If they want to have any chance of winning a home GC this coming season, they need a good backup QB. Strevler dreams of being a starter in this league are done. Wilson can do just as good a job at short yardage (if not better).

Bucky bailed just in time as I sensed even on this forum and elsewhere he was going to be the scape goat. Wish him well in BC, but that team owner poking his nose into roster affairs too much it seems. Rourke better show up this season or they are in for a big hurt with Adams now gone.
