Winners and Losers: Week 9 Recap
Winners
Week 9 was all about survival, and Bud Fox lost $100, but slightly increased his lead in the East. Right now, it looks like the division will only send one franchise to the postseason. Minor shoutout to Don Mattingly for winning $500. He’ll still need to make a major move to get into contention….Yaz, left for dead by many, won $500 and benefited from the rest of the North losing big time. He’s in last place, but only $1,500 off of the lead in this tightly packed division….Waldo Geraldo Faldo eked out $100 in Week 9, but it was enough to get him into a three-way tie for the South Division lead. Don’t count out Face just yet – he won $500 and is back in the positive….Chalky Studebaker had a ho-hum week, but it was enough to get him back into second place in the West and right behind the division leader.
Losers
It all came down to Monday night for Larisa Oleynik. If the Chargers covered, she would have had the lead in the East. They didn’t, so she’s now $1,300 behind the leader….T-Ferg lost $500 and still maintains his lead, but had an opportunity to break away. Kenny Powers and Dr. Oge also dropped $500 for the week….It was a week of coming back down to earth for Boss Hardigan and The Notorious ABT. They entered Week 9 tied for the lead in the South. They both lost $500, and are still tied, but have some company at the top….Ron Mexico, Bayonnaise, and The 21th Precinct all lost $500. In the hotly contested West, ever dollar will count. Also worth noting, Shecky slipped back again. His conservative strategy worked for a few weeks, but lady luck seems to have caught up with him.
