First, a little history. Last year we KSR was saddened to lose two very fine members, Don Lewis, aka "Oledon," and Jonathan McIntyre, aka "Mac," two big Kentucky football fans and terrific people. They both enjoyed the game "Stupid Underdog Picks," a game that is one part skill, one part luck, and one part silly.
Last year's winner, bigronhahn1011, asked for them to be named in his stead as 2011 winners.
Oledon and Mac (also known as bigbluemold on the boards) both enjoyed all Kentucky sports, and especially football season. They appreciated the camaraderie of KSR members on the message boards, and the "just-for-fun" games we all played together, such as Doc's Beat the Odds, and "Stupid Underdog Picks."
Mac was a good, long-time player of the games as well, and served often to promote KSR and the people on it. He loved Kentucky football and wanted nothing but the best for his beloved blue.
Bigronhahn1011 hit the last four weeks of the season with a correct stupid underdog picks, sometimes a double-digit-dog, and won five of the last six weeks to come out of nowhere and capture this year's crown. While posting the final standings for this year, bigronhahn1011 suggested that the crown be laid at the feet of two gentlemen we lost, and so much admired, and name them jointly as the "winners" for this season. "I didn't know OleDon or Mac," bigronhahn1011 said. "But I think it would be fitting that in their honor they shall be remembered as the 2011 winners of OleDon's SUP."
Bigronhahn1011 "gets it." We thanked him for the comments, and designated Don Lewis and Jonathan McIntyre as honorary winners of the KSR Stupid Underdog Pick game for last season.
Rules to follow in the next post.
