Final Standings 2009



It was a tight race this year, but in the end the top three in the table were the teams which picked Barcelona to win the final from the very beginning. Congrats go out to the Continentalist who takes first place with a pretty remarkable 13-2 record. Through the years the Continentalist has been the most consistent of all the pool teams with a 1st place finish in the original 2006 World Cup Friends Pool, 2nd place finish in the 2007 CL Pool, and a final pick win away from taking it all in 2008 both in the CL and the Euros. As for us, we finished above mid to lower table for the first time -- guess it was inevitable with a Barcelona win. Props also to Claret & Blue for a third place finish in his pool debut. It's been a fun run, y'all. We've kept the torch lit since the 2006 World Cup to bridge the gap to South Africa 2010. We'll be passing it back to the Continentalist and hopefully be seeing you all next year when the stakes are much higher than best club in Europe. Cheers, RM.
