Week 6 review

I have a confession to make I did not watch the Monday night game, instead I want to see Bad Times at El Royal and played a few rounds of Acquire, at a horrible place that does not have a TV. Now while playing I found that I was playing this passive game and of course not doing well on the score board. It felt almost like I was punting turn after turn. Fixed that problem and turned the game around but more importantly it made me think about the other areas of my life. I can think of one instance this weekend, not going to get into detail about the exact situation but in putting life into sports I was facing a 4 and 1 from the 45 yard line and I punted and really feel stupid about it. Got the ball, because as Chris says nothing really goes bad for me, but it at my own 2 yard line and going 98 yards instead of 45 to score is obviously much harder. My goal is better identify the areas that I am punting in life and essentially eliminate it like it should be in football.

I am not going to ask you to eliminate punting in your your life but if you are going to complain about teams punting on Sundays think about the areas where you are punting as well. Now to the recap.

Alex won 135-76  (Trust the process) Really I had no chance as Alex went down to Mexico in search if the Mexican demon that would unleash the true potential of his fantasy team. In exchange for the new powers of fantasy football all he needed to give up was give up some of his manhood, little did the demon know Elisabeth already took all of it from him. It's okay Alex, enjoy your win, I rather have the ability to drink a whiskey when I want to take a break from Shirley Temples.

Roger defeated Doug 101- 86. I keep on looking at Roger's score and I am not sure how he got to 101 even with 46 from two players. I don't have much to say about this one except that Roger is at real risk to losing his meme lord title to Alex. Alex has came at him twice and there has been no response at all from Roger. It is kinda embarrassing how Roger is letting Alex walk all over him.

Rich defeated Ryan  150-100. I am not going to say this is because Ryan called it a night so early on Saturday that karma came back to get him but I am sure going home at midnight did not help the situation. Rich did stay out and put out lots of good karma so that is why he was able to pull off the victory.

Brendan defeated Connor 82-73, bet if Molly set your lineup you would have won this week.

Dan was defeated by Matt instead of grabbing the division by the balls came back to earth a bit allowing Steve to hang around.

Talking about Steve he won in an impressive display of Saquan Barkley. Stud, shame he is going to waste the best years of his career with Eli. Maybe he found a spanish demon to do his bidding. Watch out Alex. The spirits of the Inquisition are very strong.

Power rankings
Now Chris has covered the themes of the weekend but I want to do my favorite moments of the wedding from my point of view. This only takes into account trying to find a parking spot up to the end of the reception. The after party does not count, either does Saturday or Sunday. If i did my favorite moments would be way to focused on those times and Lou and Emily deserve some focus, it was their night right.

12. Looking at my table seating and finding out I was at table 2 when all the cool kids where at table 12.
11. The moment when I realized what Louie had down with the table arrangements, well played Lou you won that round and thought it was funny and it set up so many great jokes.
10. The whole time looking for a parking spot and thinking I was going to be going to see Bad Times at El Royal so we could get a parking spot.
9. When the lady said you get three wishes the first time you go in a Cathedral, told you guys I didn't make that up.
8. The three rounds of shots with Shultz, Vinnie, and the people I don't know. Tequila was a strong choice but it worked out.
7. Shots with Alex and Ryan, why because it was only fun thing Alex did that Elisabeth did not look at him disproving afterwards.
6. Making the hangman noose, come on that was clever. I think it was perfect timing for Molly and Connor's conversation about the seating arrangements.
5. The BBQ was solid. Mission BBQ is good, those potatoes fantastic, brisket tasty, pork okay.
4. Shirley Temples from the Congo line, hey when you have a distinctive drink all you have to do is give the bartender the gesture from the other side of room and when you get over there it will be there.
3. Connor's reaction when I walked up and the bartender had a drink ready for me when I walked up without ordering.
2. All the stupid dancing I did, hey it's a wedding you are supposed to dance like nobody is watching even if you are as bad of dancer as I am.
1. Rich trying to get out of the parking spot. Seriously this was one of the funniest things I have ever seen.

Now you might think that there should be some more Louie and Emily stuff in the list but you know after the table thing all that stuff went away. Also be separated from you guys for the speeches ruined all the jokes I could make about them.

Next week I have planned a great idea for the power rankings
