If you're only interested in the standings, don't worry, it'll be just below. However, if you're ready to have your world ROCKED with a ballad the likes of which the world hasn't seen since Don McLean released "American Pie" in 1971, the mosey your way on down to the recaps because you will not be disappointed.
As a couple of quick admin notes. TK has been awarded money in 4 of the 5 weeks so far, so someone could chill him out that would be really great. Additionally, we have a new league record for the
best game ever. TK and Austin's 168.88 - 175.86 matchup had a game score of 105.1, beating the previously held record of 101.6 from Juan and Tyler's 171-171 playoff tie. It is truly heartbreaking that Austin had to be on the winning side of that. Normally I'd dive into a feat such as this with some analysis, but I already wrote the poem so OH WELL.
Last week (though my absence left it uncelebrated) I joined the 20K point club, and the TK/JL race to 100 wins tightened up. TK now sits at 96, while John Luke sits at 95.
Finally, this week begins the survivor challenge. Each week, the lowest-scoring person of the league will be eliminated from the pool until only one remains. Good luck, gentlemen.
