No changes in the Elimination Challenge this week as all five remaining entries stayed alive. Here are this week’s updates:
Eliminator Challenge ($200 prize in cash or donation to Wounded Warriors)
We still have the same five alive although some took an interesting route to get to where we are today. Who would have thought that the Falcons would be a strong elimination pool pick?

DFO Spreads Wide (picking against the spread, Prize = A grab at OSZ’s bag of goodies)
Warthog maintains his three win lead but it is now over a new second place entry! Sunrisesunrise had a fantastic week to pull into second. Senior Weaselo and Clipboard Jesus are tied for third four games back with yeah right one behind them. King Hippo and I are another win back. Entropy apparently forgot to put in his picks and drops all the way from second to 22nd! Don’t forget to make your picks!

DFO Picks Its Nose (Straight-Up pick, Prize: A bottle of fine booze)
MooseBlaster holds steady at the #1 spot, but the competition among the top ten entries is fierce! Nomonkeyfun is the new#2 along with make it snow and Senor Weaselo. There is another group of three one game back and then the peloton closely behind. Here is the table:

You saw what happened to Entropy. Don’t let that happen to you! Remember to put your picks in!
Just because you use words like peloton doesn’t preclude us from knowing that you’re a yinzer, yinzer.

Hover around .500 then fall flat is the story of my gambling life.

MEDIOCRE!
(I’m talking about myself here)
Within one standard deviation of the mean high five!
I am only leading because I’m a standard deviant. I predict a mid-season collapse to the bottom 10%.
A friend of mine (I guess we’ve grown apart now — tear) was into The Hold Steady when I was in college. I heard a couple songs and got this idea in my head that, since the lead vocalist pretty much talks through all the songs — the opposite of what one would expect — that the trend must be consistent and that he sings during all other times in his life. This was an inside joke between us because it was before fucking insurance commercials that beat this, “oh yeah, I guess that can be kinda funny every once in a while” humor into the ground by playing a commercial with some washed out celebrity singing at inopportune times like 40 times an hour during football broadcasts.
Then my friend saw them in concert and the lead singer sidled up next to him at the urinals. My friend said something about ‘good show’ and the guy’s response was not in song. This news killed our joke and, probably, our friendship.
“You saw what happened to Entropy.”
Isn’t it ironic, don’t you think.
