Major Upset HERE! NESCAC/ECAC-E Final Pick 'Em

[WillieC]

Da kid stumbles! Old man shows him how it's done!

After confidently leading for most of the final season for the NESCAC/ECAC-E Pick 'Em, the Prez faltered just enough to let the old man in and take the Final Season by but a single point....or was this a clever ploy to insure some longevity in the NU Athletic Office??? Inquiring minds will never really know but there you have it:

CROSBYNU63 wins the grand finale of the pick 'em and, as such, will hereafter retain full possesison of the coveted NESCAC/ECAC East Pick 'Em trophy and all the wealth and accolades that accrue along with it, most notably a gift certificate for a steak dinner provided by hawk. I'm sure it's in the mail as we speak.

CONGRADULATIONS!

Nice job WilliC...I let the kid lead most of the year with the plan that I would make my move in the last weekend. Hawk, now that is another story....he is going to be the recruiter for Middlebury.

I heard the winning prizes included: a 2012 Hummer 2 (first one off the assembly line), and a sailboat vacation for four off the coast of Somalia. Prizes Crosby surely deserves.

Willie C,

Thanks for running this again, it has been fun over the years and it will be missed. Hopefully you will continue to insert some of your insights and wisdom into the NU vs. Midd game threads in the future.

Congrats to the NU faithful who took the top 5 spots in this final contest and especially to Crosby who has retired the trophy.

Stop the presses!!!

Due to recent events, I demand a recount!

Bowdoin forfeits NESCAC title, thus taking three points away from Charlie, making me the champ

They forfeited the title, not the game, I still win

That's correct...However,

We picked the NESCAC champion not the actual game. The title is now vacant.

Plus I don't think the Prez wants to back into the championship But then again he could be covering the sport of volley ball.
