Week 4 Power Rankings
Funny Money Power Rankings – Week 4
Both the #1 and #2 teams in the rankings this week continued their winning ways. For the most part the rest of the league hovered around the Equator in Week 3. A few exceptions were a rise by Gibbler and a fall by Babe and Mr. DeBlasis.
Here are your updated power rankings:
Biggest rise: Kimmy Gibbler: was 11, now 5
Biggest drop: Babe: was 6, now 11
(Last week’s rank; Current total)
1. The People’s Champ (1; $1,500)
DiMaggio’s hit streak. The Miami Dolphins’ undefeated season. Hall & Oates’ string of #1 hits. The Champ’s flawless season after three weeks is drawing comparisons to other great feats of perfection.
2. Gordon Bombay (2; $1.300)
Bombay wins $500 for the second week in a row and keeps the overall lead in his sights.
3. Boss Hardigan (3; $900)
Only gained $100 last week, but still the Boss of the West.
4. Mr. Marbles (5; $700)
Marbles stayed closed to Bombay and rumor has it that his secret is drinking a bottle of Ten High prior to making his picks each week.
5. Kimmy Gibbler (11; $700)
And Gibbler is alive and well! A perfect week has him cracking into the Top 5.
6. Karl Farbman (4; $600)
Another average week after coming out the gate strong. Farbman must design a winning week soon if he wants to catch the Boss before he gets too far away.
7. Thunder Lips (7; $500)
Does his system work? Another four teamer – and three correct picks. But Bombay is pulling away….
8. Bayonnaise (8; $200)
After a big Week 2, the ‘Naise returned to bland form.
9. Waldo Geraldo Faldo (10; $300)
Waldo survived a mediocre week in the West, but can look back at this week as one where he could have gained ground.
10. Brian Piccolo (14; $100)
Piccolo is still breathing, but just barely. Could go either way.
11. Babe (6; $100)
Babe lost $500, but still leads the East. Could a negative total win the division?
12. The 21th Precinct (13; $-100)
Mediocrity won’t win the west, but there’s still a lot of season left and the Precinct is within relative striking distance.
13. Blossom Russo (9; $-300)
Sunk down in total but not in the rankings in the East.
14. Teddy KGB (12; $-100)
No splashing the pot this week: after a big Week 1, Teddy has lost steam.
15. Mr. DeBlasis (15; $-500)
Oh, Mr. DeBlasis, you lost all your bets and fell way behind the league leader. Time to pull out the wild card bet?
16. Bummy (17; -$500)
Tardy picks and bad bets make Bummy a dull boy.
17. Rick Moranis (20; -$900)
Moranis might need the help of Dr. Peter Venkman this week to continue to rise up the Power Rankings.
18. The Beard of Zeus (18; -$900)
Got off the proverbial schnide by winning a game! Things are really starting to snowball for the god.
19. The Phoenix (16; -$700)
No picks this week. The Phoenix has descended.
20. Chris B. Corey (19; -$1,000)
Down so low, winning a meager $100 isn’t going to cut the mustard.

Week 3 Power Rankings
Funny Money Power Rankings – Week 3
The majority of the franchises held their collective breath as Green Bay and Detroit squared off in a thriller. Thirteen teams bet the Packers to see them go up by 21, then lose the lead, then score 24 straight in the 4th quarter. Many franchises saw their week saved by the Packers defense. Chris B. Corey, who lives his life just like his tattoo says: “Get Rich or Die Tryin,” lost his Wild Card bet, an $800 wager on the Bungles. I guess he died tryin. A few lucky teams won $500 this week, as the cream starts to rise to the top in each division.
Here are your updated power rankings:
Biggest rise: Bayonnaise: was 16, now 8
Biggest drop: Teddy KGB: was 3, now 12
(Last week’s rank; Current total)
1. The People’s Champ (1; $1,000)
So glamourous, so glamourous, glamourous, oh the flossy flossy. The People’s Champ stays perfect on the season.
2. Gordon Bombay (4; $800)
The Minnesota Miracle Man rises up and wins $500, putting him in a familiar spot on the top tier of the league.
3. Boss Hardigan (5; $800)
Newcomer Boss wins $500 as well, proving he can swim with the big fish, even though he is wearing a terrible speedo.
4. Karl Farbman (2; $500)
A win, a loss, and a push aren’t going to get it done for Farbman. He could be moving on down if he doesn’t take care of business.
5. Mr. Marbles (7; $600)
Mr. Marbles, who moonlights as the lead singer of the hit Cleveland area band “The Qdoba Boys,” inched his way further towards the lead this week.
6. Babe (10; $600)
Babe proved in Week 2 that even absolute busts deserve a second chance. A perfect week has him leading the East.
7. Thunder Lips (12; $400)
Another rookie that is making a name for himself early on. Thunder Lips has bet on a league high nine games thus far, but has won six of them. Good show.
8. Bayonnaise (16; $300)
You can’t 86 the Bayonnaise on a delicious Week 2. Bayo won $500 and put himself in the thick of things after a lackluster opening week.
9. Blossom Russo (14; $200)
Blossom rises slightly and needs to capitalize on the momentum she built in Week 2.
10. Waldo Geraldo Faldo (6; $200)
Waldo dropped down four spots, just as “Family Matters” did when “Dinosaurs!” led off the TGIF lineup.
11. Kimmy Gibbler (11; $200)
Medium. Medium. Medium.
12. Teddy KGB (3; $0)
Week 1: Two for two. Week 2: Zero for two. Too bad he didn’t consult his baby’s mama first before betting.
13. The 21th Precinct (13; $0)
Don’t look now, but the 21th is falling behind in the West – no teams are in the negative.
14. Brian Piccolo (8; $200)
Hasn’t shown much in the first two weeks, but could go on a run in Week 3.
15. Mr. DeBlasis (9; $0)
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
16. The Phoenix (18; -$100)
Got back on track by winning $100 on the week.
17. Bummy (17; -$300)
Poor showing so far. And to think they used to call Bummy “The Executor.”
18. The Beard of Zeus (19; -$1,000)
The Curse of the Kudler has struck. No correct bets thus far.
19. Chris B. Corey (15; -$1,100)
Lost his Wild Card bet, but salvaged a little bit on the Indy comeback. There are still 15 weeks left, but already it looks unlikely that Chris will be in the playoffs.
20. Rick Moranis (20; -$1,000)
Didn’t make his picks. At all. Lost $600. Here’s shovel, can you dig it fool?

Week 2 Power Rankings
Funny Money Power Rankings – Week 2
The season got off to a bang with the Giants winning the opener, making several franchises happy. But Cincy’s loss and Detroit making Atlanta look flawless killed a few franchises’ hopes of a perfect week. The West is best in Week 1, and the East is least. Here are your updated power rankings:
Biggest rise: Waldo Geraldo Faldo; was 18, now 6
Biggest drop: The Phoenix; was 5, now 18 and Chris B. Corey; was 2 now 15
(Last week’s rank; Current total)
1. The People’s Champ (1; $500)
The self-proclaimed champion of the populous picked up in 2008 where he left off in ’07.
2. Karl Farbman (6; $500)
Benefitted from Reggie Bush leading the Saints back in the 4th quarter, but must keep pace in the West.
3. Teddy KGB (9; $500)
Start spreading the news – Teddy rode the Giants and Jets to a perfect week.
4. Gordon Bombay (3; $300)
Stayed close in the highly competitive North Division.
5. Boss Hardigan (7; $300)
Though he didn’t have his “lucky” Jeff Hostetler jersey for Week 1, Hardigan would’ve had a perfect week if it was for dem Rayyyvens.
6. Waldo Geraldo Faldo (18; $500)
Is this a sign of things to come or a flash in the pan? Waldo rode the coattails of Aaron Rodgers and Eddie Winslow to a flawless inaugural week.
7. Mr. Marbles (15; $300)
Mr. Marbles? He’s harmless! Creeping around once again, Marbles stayed in the thick of things up North.
8. Brian Piccolo (14; $100)
Brian’s song this week: close but no cigar. One win, one loss. Still a lot to be determined for the young franchise.
9. Mr. DeBlasis (4; -$100)
The golden arm of Jon Kitna couldn’t save Mr. DeBlasis this week.
10. Babe (16 $100)
Like a rousing karaoke rendition of a Styx song, Babe left something to be desired, yet is atop his division.
11. Kimmy Gibbler (11; -$100)
Mediocrity in Week 1 will keep Gibbler in the race in the South, but she needs to turn things around to stay close to The People’s Champ.
12. Thunder Lips (8; $100)
Some may say betting a five-teamer is great strategy; others say it lacks cajones. Either way, Thunder Lips got off to a positive start in 2008.
13. The 21th Precinct (19; $100)
Getting his feet wet, the 21th Precinct must stay on track to contend in the wild wild West.
14. Blossom Russo (10; -$100)
For now, a small loss will allow for Blossom to survive in the East.
15. Chris B. Corey (2; -$500)
Continuing his world tour, Chris B. Corey let down his legions of fans with a terrible week of picks. Yet, he still remains a player to watch.
16. Bayonnaise (13; -$200)
Started ’08 with tardy bets, which can come back to haunt a franchise later in the year.
17. Bummy (17; -$100)
Bet blindly without point spreads and lived to tell about it. For now.
18. The Phoenix (5; -$200)
7th Floor Crew says: “What’s your name? THE PHOENIX! What you do? MAKE LATE PICKS!”
19. The Beard of Zeus (12; -$500)
The Beard has to summon some strength to bounce back in Week 2.
20. Rick Moranis (20; -$400)
No luck for Moranis. Made tardy bets and missed on two. On the bright side, he did pick one game right in Week 1! Baby steps. Baby steps.
