There have been many incredible SUPER BOWLS over the years and SUPER BOWL LI has to be ranked as the MOST INCREDIBLE one of them all.

Congratulations goes out to Shen for capturing 1st Place honors and grabbing the Gold.

In 2nd and capturing the Silver was Boosch1949.

And finishing 3rd and capturing the Bronze was CUBANO.

A tip of my hat to everyone in the FOXDEN FORUM that once again demonstrated some superb, top notch handicapping.

As a whole, the players in this contest were +4260 STARS.

I'd like to thank everyone for participating in the NFL PLAYOFF CONTEST and I hope that everyone had some thrills and excitement during this NFL SEASON.

thanks !!!!

thanks for doing all of this all season.

Thank you for your time and effort 'Sherlock' in running this contest.
I wish to congratulate:

Boosch1949 for an outstanding record of 11-2 and second place!

Cubano who climbed consistently to the top and finished 3rd!

Mgh56 with a strong 8-1 record (5th) and Badger24 grabbing 4th place was impressive.

Also to the den as a whole for overall high marks in handicapping the matches in this contest.

I wish everyone a great and prosperous year in 2017. Thanks again Sherlock

Shen (2016 NFL Contest and 2016 NFL
Playoffs/Super Bowl Contest 1st Place)

I want to thank Sherlock for running the contest. It was a lot of fun. Looking forward to next year's contest. Hope everyone has a safe non-football season.

Don't know where the hell the Den would be without the members who graciously give their time. Hey, I'm 64, and in three years when I retire, will gladly help out.
Again, thank you!

Thank you Sherlock for your time,and well done.
Congrats to Shen.

You're very welcome, my friends and partners in speculative enterprises.

It was another outstanding year for the NFL PLAYOFF CONTEST!

As an avid lifelong FOOTBALL FAN, I've watched and enjoyed all 51 SUPER BOWLS and there have been many very memorable games.

Like when BROADWAY JOE guaranteed a NEW YORK JETS victory over DON SHULA's NFL BATLTIMORE COLTS in SUPER BOWL III (1969) and then made good on his prediction with a 16–7 upset.

And SUPER BOWL XLII, when the NEW YORK GIANTS beat the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS 17-14 when ELI MANNING hit DAVID TYREE with a ball that he trapped against his helmet on the winning drive.

And SUPER BOWL XIII, when the PITTSBURGH STEELERS beat the DALLAS COWBOYS 35-31 in a matchup of QB's TERRY BRADSHAW and ROGER STAUBACH and HEAD COACHES CHUCK NOLL and TOM LANDRY.

And SUPER BOWL XLIX, when the NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS beat the SEATLLE SEAHAWKS 28-24 when the PATRIOTS MALCOLM BUTLER intercepted the SEAHAWKS RUSSELL WILSON at the goal line as time was running out.

And the list goes on and on and on.

AH, THE MEMORIES!

It's my pleasure to be able to run this contest for all the outstanding SPORTS HANDICAPPERS in the FOXDEN FORUM.

Great job by a lot of folks, particularly from Sherlock on up.

I took a beating!

I grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory with my Falcons +3 and UNDER wagers.

Sad way to finish my wagering season.

GULP

See you all next NFL season!
