Default 2015 Call To Post Final Tally

2015 is in the books. At least the 7th I've participated in. Once again Don Guido was the overall Gallivan winner (for I think the 4th time). This is the ROI recap for the 49 weeks we played. The best ROI was registered by me, Real Quiet with an overall return of 32% and a profit of almost $1700, the first year I've ever been in the black. The only other player in positive territory was Indian Hemp who was at 21% and a $367 profit. 3rd, 4th and 5th were Digger, Arletta and Plenilune. The most wins were registered by Ruffian with 8, Plenilune with 7 and Don Guido and Arletta with 5 each. 13 players had at least one win. Congrats to Ruffian on a great year. Ummmm....we lost $16,000 on the year as a group. Don has graciously offered to pick up the virtual tab as the Gallivan champion (is that ok Don?). Special thanks go to the Call to Post Players. 10 showed up at least 40 weeks and 6 made all 49. I know its a grind but we couldn't do it without you. The best winning percentage was registered by Ruffian at 16% and the best player in the money (1st to 4th) was Digger hitting the board 46% of the times he played. This years Jacques Who Award goes to Cruzan who finished 2nd 5 times. The top 5 weeks were Real Quiet ($3545), Arletta ($850), Ruffian ($754), Indian Hemp ($723) and Roamin ($660). Thats it for now. Hope to see a lot of you on Nov.14th when we start shipping to the new venue's of 2016.

Why do I feel like I lost about $5 grand all by myself?

Still, you had terrific year, Real Quiet, and so did Indian Hemp, Ruffian, and the other top earners!

And Real Quiet, thanks a lot for keeping score and the always anticipated weekly narratives.

Thanks for the great recap RQ and excellent money management for the year. I won the ROI 5 times. . . that's weird!!! Are you sure are you buttering me up to take the loss for the group. I'll put it in the bank and add to our yearly rising deficit. Hey if the Feds can do it so can we.

Congrats to all the wagering toppers and lets get ready to RUMBLE starting next Saturday!!!

I feel like the New York Jets... 4 Super Bowls appearances and no wins.
