Stevens Bowl Results/Offseason Preview

First off, congrats to Levine on a much-deserved first chef's coat. He's had a record over .500 every year other than his first, and using my PAA metric he's the clear cut #1 best owner since 2012. In fact, PAA correctly predicted the top 3 finishers (albeit flipping Esco and Marco), as well as 4/6 playoff teams using only current FALAFEL teams. As far as I'm concerned, it should be used as the foundation of the division draft next year.

For the offseason, we will conduct Winter Meetings via email starting in mid-January unless there's a time when more than half the league can get together, which I'm doubting. I'll start a thread next week to start gathering topics.

I'll also be continuing Gambling Corner on this blog, but I won't spam the listserve for those non-degenerates. For those interested, you can just check the blog every Friday, or Follow it using your Google account. I'll include my bets for the rest of the football season, as well as some soccer and basketball picks, and any futures bets I make. I might also expand to other gambling topics if people are interested, but I also might get lazy.

Finally, my weekly #KumpfKurse picks finished at 13-6, and would have ended on an 11-game winning streak if I had simply not made a pick for the Rogers Bowl.
