End Of Season Awards
At the end of each season since 1997, I have handed out at least one award to each expert that completed the season. Starting in 2000, not all experts received an award.
Some of the awards are tied to statistical performance, while others are a bit more creative. For a description of these
awards, see the hall of fame page on awards.
