2009 Dallas Cowboys: better than the Philadelphia Eagles
2009 New York Jets: my super early just-moments-after-the-Colts-game trendy Super Bowl XLV pick; oh yeah, also better than the Dolphins
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25, even though they beat the Celtics and then lost to the freaking Raptors...
3rd place!
I changed it up in case certain people got confused/annoyed that they have the same record as you and were as low as 7th place lol.

DUDE GET YOUR FACTS STRAIGHT!!!
I went 8-3 not 7-4. i picked the saints over the colts. I just know you must be friends with unique and squishmytomatoe or you don’t know how to read. If you don’t know how to properly set up a contest then stay the hell away. For the record 8-3 for Dommsday D!!!!
hahahahahahahahahahaha!
MY APOLOGIZIES
Sorry for being pretty harsh. It’s really not the biggest deal to me. It was a good idea and you did a good job at running the contest. Just disregard my last comment. Thankyou for orchestrating this whole contest, it waas fun.
I made quite a few mistakes
And worried that I legit pissed people off with them. I’ll do it differently for the regular season in order to eliminate human error from the equation. Right now it’s just the screen and my eyes; also sometimes I was rushed doing it as I had guests, was traveling, and staying at someone’s house for several days all throughout the playoffs. Thanks for your verbal abuse patience
:)

Suggestions
Grady, thanks for organizing this. Two examples that I know of on SBNation who do these things extremely well:
mgrex03 at Stampede Blue runs contests all the time, and has people enter their picks via an online Google spreadsheet. Makes life easier for all involved. Example here.
Here’s an example from the Angels blog that has a Google mask embedded. It’s on the front page, so I don’t know if it’ll work in a fanpost – but it’s really nifty and would save you a ton of time.
