Day 5 Re-cap

Yes. That's right! I am tied for first, baby! Tied for first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If you haven't seen the bracket, I attached it for you. :-) Hey, what do you expect? I'll probably drop tomorrow...but tonight, I'M ON TOP OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok...enough about me. (Did I mention I'm tied for first?) Let's see what else is going on...

2smooth is still hanging tough. Yeah...he's tied for first...but who really cares? Sharolyn Headroe has been quiet throughout the tournament. She has slowly moved up and is now tied for 3rd with Manuel "Smith 1" Smith. I'm not sure she has much staying power...but she's up there for now. Congrats Sharolyn! I really hope you beat your husband. Sorry Robert...but I hope your kids beat you too.

Jay Swishhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh was in first place before the Tenn / Ohio State game. ...and he was probably feeling pretty good about himself at half time. Sorry Charlie. You lose. How does it feel to go from 1st place to 6th place in one night? Swishhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! Maybe your name should be "Jay Sink"...or "Jay Falling Apart"...or "Jay Can't Hold on to the Lead for an Entire Night." Get back to me when you figure it out.

In a previous message, I mentioned Will "the champ is here" Banks. I asked him to consider a name change...since "champs" don't sit in 14th place. I'm happy to see that he has moved up (currently tied for 6th)...but "champs" don't place 6th either. I guess my point still stands. Instead of "the champ is here" maybe you can be Will "I'm not in last place" Banks. That's probably a safe bet...considering last place is pretty much locked up. Hi Desi.

Another slow mover is Doris "Smith1" Smith. She has been hovering around the middle of the pack since the tournament began. She had a great round tonight and appears to be in striking distance...currently sitting in 8th. My only criticism is her lack of creativity in nick names. I guess it runs in the family (son, Manuel "Smith1" Smith).

One noteworthy shift is between the Phillips! Carl Phillips has over taken Jodi Phillips! Carl is now in 17th and Jodi is in 18th! Ok...ok...it's not that exciting. I just feel like we have to do something to motivate the folks in the back of the pack. Otherwise, they'll just sit back there and beat each other up. Speaking of which, Jodi is giving Desiree a hard time for having 0.4 (not .04) % correct when she only has 40%. It's like watching the movie "Dumb & Dumber." I think everyone in the back of the pack should be like Jasen "J-dog" Graves. He has an awesome nickname...and he's very comfortable being in 22nd place. Maybe I shouldn't speak for him. I'm assuming he's comfortable...since he's been there for most of the tournament. Maybe he's very uncomfortable and we have no idea...but at least he's quiet. Thanks Jasen. Take your beating like a man. At least you have the guinea pig girls sitting right there close to you.

Other than MY demise...are there any predictions for Friday night?
