@Foxfyre,
I can get the math to work (to arrive at the winning avg for everyone) if you get 1/2 a point for tieing in a category. So you won 10 and get 1/2 of 2 for a total of 11 divided by 19 categories = .579, same as the 'Necks. You had one fewer loss which evidentally is good for you.
BTW, tell your hubby to lighten up. His Gerbils are killing me today.

@realjohnboy,
Yeah that makes sense (cough) RJB.

And YOU tell him. I think he's afraid to look. Meanwhile, did you notice the Firefighters are stuck up there on top? And the Owls aren't? I even tied knots in MM's firehoses and it didn't help.

@ossobuco,
He's pretty much a chocolate man but the last cake mix he picked out all by himself was a carrot cake w/cream cheese icing so go figure.

Appreciate it while it lasts.

Well I'm properly impressed, but still too new at this to know how good that is. Smile

@Foxfyre,
Alas, the last cake I tasted was a carrot cake that I didn't like, at all, which is unusual for me. So, chocolate it is. Does he like or hate nuts? Coffee flavor or not at all. Whipped cream or none of that foofoo?

You're speaking to a cellar dweller, which is fun too.

Premiata Forneria M - fbaezer who is from Mexico City. I have never liked him.
Firefighters - MysteryMan from W Ky. He is a truck driver/volunteer fireman and, as we are learning, knows baseball.
Desert Sandpaws - Ossobuco -Retired landscape architect now in NM. Plays in every fantasy game.
Hoot Owls - Foxfyre, also from NM. Her boy friend, the Gerbils, is much younger.
Rappin' Rednecks - RealJohnBoy is the epitome of the Virginia gentleman. Incredibly smart and if you squint real hard, not bad looking.
The Tubas - Gargamel. Him I don't know.
The Bay Herons - Alex240101. Upstate NY and I thought I remembered in academia. I may have that totally wrong.
Ipswich Stable Hands - George and Rhys. Boston. He was my driver when I visited. Chinese/Irish or something like that. IT guy. Rhys is his son.
Boston Skinny Pups - Jespah is one of the brains behind A2K.
Geriatric Gerbils - ElStudHoncho - his birthday is Wednesday. His girl friend, much younger, is Foxfyre.
The Lushies - Pantalones is the other player here from Mexico. Tijuana, if I recall correctly.
Ticomaniacs - Ticomaya is, I think, in AZ. He thinks he knows sports and will be quick to tell you about how many fantasy trophies he's won...most of which is fantasy.
Can of Corn - JpinMilwaukee has set up numerous Fantasy games for us. He is, I think a grad student.
Skoalmen - McGentrix I don't know about. I think he is from the mid-west; I could be totally wrong.

@ossobuco,
Meantime, I could strangle Litsch. And may.
Patience, breathe in.

I'm famous to myself for dumping pitchers mixed with cosseting pitchers. This works half the time. I get it that now is not the time to dump fast (waves to Mr. Lee).

Bay Herons and Can of Corn are in a pitching "duel" with Gallardo and Volquez: 7-6 in the 5th inning... but Tico has outdone them both with Chen-Ming-Wang.
