THURSDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL POOL
After the Broncos beat the Chiefs, 20-13 in the final Week 17 game, the 2025 Thursday Night Football Pool is in the books!
Congratulations to Ellie, with a 13-7 W-L record taking 1st Place and winning $100.00! "Way to go Ellie!"
2nd Place finished in a 3-Way Tie, with BEN, Bobby B and Kyong all having a 12-8 record, splitting the $70.00 for 2nd Place, each winning $23.33. "Great job BEN, Bobby B and Kyong!"
Bobby B, in an event with other participants, sometimes there will be three of them finishing in a tie. When this happens, we can ALSO use the term "3-way", in a tie. So, don't get excited. It has nothing to do with you, Cindy and Big Hank. (Sorry, if I got their names wrong. I forgot what you told us your blow-up dolls names were.)
And lastly, WACK takes the Last Place winnings of $20.00 for having the worst W-L record of 7-13. "Congratulations WACK!" (But you can't fool us WACK. We all knew from the start that you were shooting for the $20.00 Last Place Pot. Right??)
Below is your updated Final Standings and copy of everyone's Final Sheets.
Sorry, if you didn't win anything this season. But I'll be doing an NFL Play-off Pool this year. Beginning with the six wild card games, in an NFL ~Wild Card Weekend~ Pool. Please click on the link below to checkout and to get in on this Pool.
And... "GO HAWKS!"

REVIEW FROM THE RULES:
Remember, it was $10 a Sheet to play and you have 19 Players. So, per the Payouts (listed below) that would make this season's payouts:
1ST PLACE - $100
2ND PLACE - $70
LAST PLACE - $20
PAYOUTS:
1ST PLACE: Person with the Best W-L Record after week 17 Wins the Pot* (*Pot amount - less $90.00 to cover 2ND PLACE and LAST PLACE pay-outs listed below.)
2ND PLACE: Person with the Second Best W-L Record Wins $70.00
LAST PLACE: Person with the Worst W-L Record Wins $20.00
Any TIES on any W-L Record on any of the above, will split that winning amount evenly. (A tie in 1ST PLACE doesn’t warrant any of the money from the 2ND PLACE.)
-In the unlikely event that a Thursday Night Game is rescheduled, switched or moved by the NFL, these are the 20 games from which the W-L Record will be calculated after the Week 17 Thursday Night Game.
Thank you all for playing this season and good luck everyone!

Note from Joe: I don’t play. I also don’t take any rake or make any money from this pot or by doing this pool. I actually lose money. But enjoy doing it for fun for my family and friends.
