Commentary: Week 15 was separation week for several teams in the Funny Money, with three wild cards bet. Bayonnaise and Don Mattingly put their money on Seattle, who was favored by 7 and lost outright. Therefore, both fell out of the playoff picture. It should be noted that Bayonnaise was in the midst of a phenomenal comeback, from almost -$2000 to the brink of the playoffs. As a result of Don Mattingly’s loss, Blossom Russo has clinched the East Division. The other wild card bet was Chris B. Corey, riding Tennessee as if Vince Young were named Jody. He vaulted himself to first in the North Division and is now in the driver’s seat. Teddy KGB lost $100 and is hanging onto the final playoff spot. In the West, Gordon Bombay has been dethroned for the moment. The People’s Champ, on an absolute tear, won $500 yet again to take over first place. Gordon Bombay, $100 behind the leader, currently holds the first Wild Card Playoff Berth. Both The People’s Champ and Gordon Bombay are the only remaining franchises with their wild card bets. Mr. Marbles and Karl Farbman were both hindered by Eli Manning and the terrible NY Giants, and both are hanging on by a string with hopes for the playoffs. Two weeks left and there is still a great deal to be determined.

Commentary: Would have been a good week for the Funny Money Franchises to be in Vegas. In the North Division, all four teams won $500, so no leads changed, and with available wild card bets for Chris B. Corey and Bayonnaise, it’s still anyone’s division with three weeks to go. Gordon Bombay and The People’s Champ both win $500 in the West, and are in the rearview mirror of overall leader Blossom Russo. Both also have their wild card available, which could cause for some interesting betting strategy down the stretch.

Commentary: Everything tightens up with four weeks to go in the regular season. Teddy KGB and Mr. Marbles both lose $100 and both are fined $100 for late picks. Meanwhile Chris B. Corey gets back into it, and there is $200 separating the top three teams in the North. In the West, Gordon Bombay loses $500 and The People’s Champ wins $500, closing the gap in the division. Karl Farbman ekes out his wild card bet and is back in the race for the division lead. This week also marks the most franchises that have had positive money this season. Only two franchises are in the negative.

Commentary: What a week what a week. Teddy KGB hangs on by a thread and hits his Seattle wild card to leap over both Chris B. Corey and Mr. Marbles and take the outright lead in the North. Chris B. Corey loses a mere $100 on the week, yet falls from first to third in the division and way back in the wild card race. Don Mattingly wins $500 and moves up into the thick of things at $800. Karl Farbman and Mr. DeBlasis both win $500 as well, staking their claim at $500 and $300 each respectively. Things are tightening up as we head down the stretch.

Commentary: Bayonnaise continues his surge in the North, making it a four horse race. Chris B. Corey and Mr. Marbles once again tied at the top of the division. In the East, Blossom Russo maintained his lead, while Kimmy Gibbler and Rick Moranis fall deeper and deeper into the abyss. Gordon Bombay keeps his strong lead in the West, but it is another division that has four playoff contenders. Throw in the fact that many teams still have their wild card, and the final few weeks of the season could be as crazy as a 51 yard Phil Dawson Field Goal (Ravens Suck).
