Week 1 Recap

COMMISH NOTES:

Well week 1 was sure a blast wasn't it poolsters? I think this weekend I'm going to do something a little less painful - say hit myself repeatedly in the head with a mallet while listening to Al Gore speeches sitting in a tub of hot lava. And it wasn't our best effort as a group either - only 29 out of the 164 poolsters were even over the 50% winning mark and 11 of you went thru the trouble of joining our little pool and didn't even take the time to make any picks - go figure. So needles to say, there will be a lot more of this 

 in the Commish's game day experience going forward.

You vs the Pool

Not really a lot of surprises this week - most of the favorites won their games - except the mighty Buffs of course

but a special shout out to the 1st "Half" point games of the year by LSU and THE ohio state - if it happens again they'll both be banned. And wasn't it great to see the Ole Ball Coach pop his top after the Gamecocks laid an egg vs Texas A&M ?

Also did any of you notice not being incredibly annoyed during the Florida St - Okie St game ? Well I did and it seems a certain Mr Musburger was missing from the airwaves - so the Commish would personally like to thank Buddha, Allah, Baby Jesus, and the Flying Spaghetti monster for that act of kindness !

We also have 4 very optimistic late adds to the pool who joined after a few of the games had started. But in their defense I heard there were some snafus in the work release discharge procedures down at county jail which explains their tardiness. So let's all welcome these winners to our ranks - Seamus Gibbons, Matt Barbour, Ryan Wilson, and Mike Yell.

WEEKLY WINNER:

                                                          

Chowdermania was running wild with John "Eye of the Clam" Burnham scoring an impressive week one victory going 14-6. John chalks up his victory to his "lucky" pleather vest and plans to take his $100 weekly winnings and get a new "Rainbow Unicorn" tattoo that will cover his entire back.

         

WEEKLY LOSER:

Daniel Wood who goes by the screen name "SEC Represent" is this week's sole loser coming home with an incredibly pathetic record of 4-16, which mathematically assures him nothing better than a 163rd place finish at the end of the year. And I just now realized the SEC team he was representing was the 1979 Vanderbilt Commodores.

OVER ALL LEADER AND LUNKHEAD:

Please see above.

The PJA

And not to beat a dead horse - and so far 101 of the 164 poolsters have paid up - The entry fee is a paltry $50 - so right this second grab your checkbook and write that check and send it to:

Kevin "the Commish" Watters

1 Columbine Lane Littleton CO, 80123

Because there's nothing the Commish hates more than paying bill collector for the few late paying deadbeats we have each season I'm setting a hard deadline of week 2 to get your entry fee in - that date is Saturday September 13th. No entry fee by then and you are OUT - NO EXCEPTIONS !!!

MET BO BEBOS ! 

Good Luck Suckas - the Commish
