James Harrison.
And why did you put scored and touchdown in quotes?
James Harrison.

Because there was no earthly reason that lumbering lummox should’ve been able to get anywhere near the end zone.
Yeah, that TD cost me $450 in winnings…so I remain a bit bitter.
I know they reviewed it, but it seemed like he could have been called down short of the goal line. One of those plays where it was close enough that no matter how it was called on the field, it wouldn’t have been overturned.
You can’t outsmart stupidity. The guy is an idiot. Skammer summed it up nicely. Randomizing random numbers… uh… makes them random.
I put that in the same category as the guy who wants to change one play in the middle of game and assume the rest of the game would be played exactly the same way. “If that penalty was called we would have won the game.” Really?
And he wouldn’t have, except the Cardinals’ sideline players repeatedly blocked the path of Fitzgerald (who would have easily caught Harrison, ending the half).
As a Steeler fan, I’m grateful!
So, lets say he’s banking on the Giants being shut out. The scores by quarter are 0-0, 7-0, 10-0, 24-0.
If he takes a Giants column, he has a 10% chance at winning every quarter. If he takes a Patriots row he will, at most, win one quarter. He’s got a very good chance at winning that quarter, so the expected value is the same, but the variance is quite different.
…and I just came in here to add that I won $80 on my “big game” squares. First drink’s on me!
$1,640 from two box pools. I’ll get the next round.
I know this is months-old, but I just saw the pool board behind my desk, and realized I never followed up on this:
The guy who complained? He won the final, plus a bonus box: $420 for him. Shame we didn’t start on the other side of the board.
Oh, and he didn’t tip.
Man, I do not care for that guy.
