Pale Ale and NJ Chubbs have fought for the top spot for most of the year.  NJ Chubbs held it out of the gate and for several weeks, but lately it's been Pale Ale with the edge.  Perenial winner and challenger Sterling Silver sits in third, while Slappy has a hold on fourth.  Mizzou, year after year, with an amazing draft, is in fifth without much, if any, effort since the opening.  Still a long way to go, but it seems that five teams will be locked in a death struggle for the fifth and sixth playoff spots.  Pantsload could sneak into the mix.




edited to straighten columns.  Eliminated last week results.

 

Would this be a good time to point out that the owner of Cleveland Rocks did a lot of trash talking up to, during and after draft day? I wonder why he stopped. ???

By the way, my NJ Chubbs are playing the Pale Ale Hose in a battle of the top contenders this week. Yes, I probably do need a life, but I'll take my successes where I can find them.

 

My Slapnuts squad has been up and down, but seems to be putting it together for the stretch run, after a dominant performance last week.

And yeah, how are those Indians doing?

 

Certainly a battle of the Titans this week, outofplace. I'm hanging on to first for dear life.

 

I'm off to a heck of a start (10-0 after Monday) so I'm sure you'll kick my butt the rest of the week.

As long as I hold on to that first-round bye. All the money is for our finish in the playoffs, right? I completely forgot what the payouts are. I really should write stuff like that down.

 

Yeah, not the greatest night for me last night, for sure.

I can't remember about the payoff, either. Sadly, I normally don't need to worry about such things.

 

Winnin' Ugly has been, well, winnin' ugly.

But that money will be mine. Oh yes, it will be mine.

 

Same here. That's why I didn't write it down.

 

I like this league, but we are coming up short in the banter department. Then again, given that the other league just had a post linking to man-boobs, that might be a good thing.

 

The other league?

There is only ONE SportsJournalists.com league. You folks would be the other league.

 

No, Some Idiots Allowed is THE other league.

That's some other other league.

 

I sit corrected.
