Funny Money Power Rankings – Week 15

Congratulations are in order for Mr. Marbles and Babe after Week 14 – They were the only two franchises that actually won money last week. Everyone else suffered, and suffered greatly. No one placed their Wild Card bet, so six still remain in play. And the playoff picture is becoming more and more crowded each week. Three weeks to go.

Here are your updated power rankings:

Biggest rise: Babe: was 18, now 12
Biggest drop:  The People’s Champ: was 5, now 7; Teddy KGB: was 13, now 15; Boss Hardigan: was 15, now 17

(Last week’s rank; Current total)

1. Gordon Bombay (1; $3,100)

Bombay dropped down slightly, but pulled away a bit for the overall lead. What’s even more remarkable is that he still has his Wild Card bet on the shelf.

2. Mr. Marbles (3; $2,100)

Kudos for winning $100 on the week. Barring a complete meltdown, Mr. Marbles has a playoff spot locked up, but still can make a run at the division crown.

3. Blossom Russo (2; $2,700)

Fell out of the tie for the overall lead with an uncharacteristic -$500 week.

4. Kimmy Gibbler (4; $1,500)

Pulled out a big Monday Night Football win that gives him some breathing room in his divisional race.

5. Karl Farbman (7; $800)

Lost $300 on the week, yet increased his lead on everyone in his division. Farbman’s betting style in the next few weeks will be very important.

6. Thunder Lips (6; $1,000)

The once methodical, strategic Thunder Lips lost $500 yet again and is inching closer and closer to the brink of the playoff standings.

7. The People’s Champ (5; $800)

Late picks again for the self-proclaimed Champ. He’s got his hands on the last playoff spot, but not by much.

8. Bummy (9; $700)

For weeks, Bummy has hovered right around $700, and finally the league has come back down to his level. He’s now just $100 out of the playoffs.

9. Brian Piccolo (8; $400)

Dropped a couple of tough losses and is now $400 behind West Division leader Farbman.

10. Bayonnaise (10; $300)

A month ago, Bayonnaise was primed to take the South Division over. Now, he needs three solid weeks just to make the playoffs.

11. Mr. DeBlasis (11; $200)

Ditto for DeBlasis. He’ll have to leap over a few people to get into the postseason.

12. Babe (18; -$200)

Props to Babe, the other franchise that won money last week. He needs a miracle to get a wild card berth to the playoffs, but judging by last week, anything can happen.

13. The 21th Precinct (12; $100)

Dropped $500 and is $700 back with three weeks to go. But, he still has his Wild Card bet in his pocket.

14. Chris B. Corey (14; -$200)

Had a chance to get back into the race this week, but missed out.

15. Teddy KGB (13; $100)

The downward spiral continues. Another week, another $500 loss.

16. Waldo Geraldo Faldo (16; -$400)

Still alive, but just barely.

17. Boss Hardigan (15; -$500)

Stick a fork in the Boss, he’s done. After a valiant effort and comeback, losing $500 might have put him out of the race.

18. The Beard of Zeus (17; -$800)

The same goes for the Beard. He made it interesting.

19. The Phoenix (19; -$2,000)

Losing the race for last, the Phoenix only lost $500 in Week 14….

20. Rick Moranis (20; -$2,800)

….which couldn’t match the $600 Moranis lost by having late picks. Yeesh.
