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.
