Winners and Losers: Week 13 Recap
Winners
A big week for Bud Fox, who won $500 and surged ahead in the East. Larisa Oleynik and The People’s Champ also had solid weeks and could be making a push down the home stretch, especially the Champ, who still has his wild card bet….The North is becoming an afterthought, as T-Ferg stretches his lead to $1,400 over the nearest competitor….No one had a better performance in Week 13 than The Notorious ABT, who won $500, took over the lead in the South, and jumped into the top spot overall for the FMFL….Welcome to the wild, wild West where five franchises are within $400 of the lead. Shecky still holds onto the top spot, but the last four weeks will definitely be interesting.
Losers
As much as it pains me to say it, it might be time to stick a fork in Karl Farbman for the 2015 FMFL season….In the midst of attempting to make a playoff run, Blossom Russo forgot to make her bets. In Week 13? Amateur move….Kiko Garcia had a rough go in Week 13, losing $500. He has some work to do if he wants to get into the postseason….Is it time for The 21th Precinct to fire off his wild card bet?

Winners and Losers: Week 12 Recap
Winners
In the East, The Beard of Zeus made his move, winning his wild card bet and $1,000 for the week. Another strong week and he’ll be thinking about making a run at the division. The People’s Champ was also perfect on the week, winning $500 and he’s now back to even money….Lots of winners in the North in Week 12. The Phoenix, Rick Moranis, Blossom Russo, Kimmy Gibbler, and Kenny Powers all won $500. Yaz won his wild card bet and moved up $600 for the week as well….Boss Hardigan continues to hold onto the lead in the hotly contested South. Kiko Garcia won $500 and is pushing his way into the playoff picture, now just a percentage tiebreaker from occupying the final postseason spot….The West is tightening up even more, and Babe won 4 of his 5 wagers this week to push himself closer to the division lead.
Losers
Another tumble for The Big Hurt, who lost $500 and slipped back in the East. Karl Farbman also continues to move back and now occupies the cellar in the division….Dr. Oge continues to drop in the North and it might be time for him to pull the wild card trigger….No big losers in the South this week, so we will continue to wonder how the 2014 champ Gordon Bombay is doing so poorly this season….With not much to lose, Bayonnaise might be another thinking about his wild card bet this week.

Week 11 Recap: Winners and Losers
Winners
Chris B. Corey was the big winner in the East in Week 11. He cashed in on his wild card bet and took the division lead, riding Cam Newton’s golden arm….T-Ferg won just $100, but increased his lead in the North to $1,200, though there’s still a long way to go since many in the North still have their wild card bets available….Another solid week for Boss Hardigan, who leads the South and also the overall race….Shecky went 4-0-1 on his five-teamer in Week 11 to maintain control of the West. Also of note, Ron Mexico won $500 and is nipping at his heels.
Losers
Although he didn’t take a dip in the standings, Bud Fox could be classified as one of the week’s “losers”. He pushed on his wild card bet and lost the lead in the East. The Beard of Zeus took the more traditional loser route, with late bets and no wins for a -$600 week….Blossom Russo lost his wild card bet and might have to chalk up 2015 as a lost season. Goodnight, sweet prince. Rick Moranis lost $500 and is now $1,300 behind the North leader. Goodnight, sweet Jersey….Gordon Bombay continues to dig a deeper hole for himself. Do I sense a Week 12 New England wild card bet?….It may be time for The 21th Precinct to bet his wild card as well to attempt to return to relevancy.
