Week 12: Results

In the words of Spaulding, double turds!!

The final score of the Monday night game was 27-6, for a point total of 33.  One more field goal and Gedeon would have won, one less and I would have won (DAMMIT!!!!), but things worked out perfectly for Karl Vaillancourt, who is this week's big wiener!!  Congratulations, Karl!  You win this week's prize, Mike Shanahan's actual scalp, extracted courtesy of fellow pool(poop!) participant Mr. Alex Mena who surely lost his frigg'n mind, drove to DC and performed impromptu surgery on Mr. Shanahan in the back of a van parked in a 7-11 parking lot.  So watch for a plastic bag containing part of an actual human head!  Yay!

With that beautiful image in your mind's eye, here's the way Week 12 ended up:

1. Karl Vaillancourt ... 13-3
1. Gedeon Mariam ... 13-3
1. Dave Labowitz ... 13-3
1. Matthew Kory ... 13-3
5. Bill Denton ... 12-4
5. Robin Wood ... 12-4
7. George Smith ... 11-5
7. Jon Stover ... 11-5
9. Matthew Mariam ... 10-6
9. Sandy Kory ... 10-6
9. Alex Mena ... 10-6
12. Josh Money ... 9-7
12. Zack Klein ... 9-7
14. Joey Bansen ... 8-8
14. John Weaver ... 8-8

Overall, the field has narrowed.  Last week 16 games separated first from last.  This week its down to 11.  If you were behind in the pool(poop!) its a safe bet you had a good week, and if you were at the front of the pool(poop!) you probably sucked some poop from a straw. 

Last week we had the John Weaver is kicking all of our asses post, but this week Weaver's 8-8 showing has helped everyone pick up a few games.  For example, I picked up 7 games on John in one week.  Don't expect that to happen again.  Dave picked up five games to vault himself into a second place tie* with Sandy, who picked up two games on John himself.  Zack, despite a lousy week himself, picked up a game on John as well, moving to within three.  Unfortunately for him he was leap-frogged by Dave and Sandy.  Karl's strong week moved him to five games back. 


*NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

All that said, John is still in first by two games, so its not like he's doing that badly.

I've included a new column after your record.  The number of games out of first place is in parentheses after your overall record.  At long last, here are your Current Overall Standings (COS) through Week 12:

Congrats again to Karl.  I'll have the schedule for Week 13 up soon.  Remember, Week 13 begins this Thursday, so don't forget to get that game to me by game time.  The rest are due at the start of the games on Sunday.

Hope you all have a great week.
