Week 9 Frank turns 27

As many of you know yesterday was my one year at GEICO, some people would say I deserve a medal, I think I deserved a promotion. I was sitting in my office thinking hmm, sitting here waiting for the boss to come in and say something about a promotion sounds a lot like punting so I decided to walk down to my bosses office and say it is my one year today and I am eligible for a promotion to attorney 1 (move up a pay grade) and I think I deserve it. Now my boss has been working in the job for three weeks and says he has to check to make sure but he will get on it. Now, I wasn't done yet before leaving the office I told him that currently at 1.04 of the grade pay scale and if I get the promotion I should stay at that level. An extra 4% raise more might seem like a small amount but when you are already paid a ridiculous amount of money for your level of experience it is a surprising decent amount. Wahoo for math. Today, boss comes in says he put in for the 90k but it is up to the bigger bosses to make the determine but the promotion and smaller raise should be in bag even if the don't approve staying at the same percentage of the band. Maybe the was a point in my life when I would not have walked into that office because I did not recognize when I was punting but now with my never punt mindset I walked in and got at least a decent raise, before some of the people who started slightly before me. As I said what 3 weeks ago, time to stop punting and the benefits have already started.

Now to the part that you guys actually want to read well half of you, the other half don't need to be reminded that there team sucked this week.

Where to start, guess the teams with an over .500 record who won should get top recap billing.

Rich survived a  off week from Todd Gurely, who only scored 15 points this week which really is like me complaining about my 5% raise in September because the Regional boss turned down the 6% raise. His victim this week was Chris who has lost the past two weeks moving him into a tie for his division with a record of 4-5.

The other big dog this year Brendan, also moved to 7-2 with his victory over Roger. Now it is interesting that Roger has the pickup of the year in James Connor who is the number 3 RB, which is probably the only thing that has kept him from being a one or winless team. Poor Brendan once again seems to be stuck behind another dominate team in his division.

Well to finish off the top 3 teams by record I beat Steve 105-59. oh wait all these teams are all in the same division. Man I wish I was leading one of those divisions where everyone is under .500. Guess I can't have everything going in my favor.

Connor, the other team that is over .500 defeated Ryan, which is unfortunate because if Ryan won I could have clinched a playoff spot this week and Brendan and Rich would have clinched last week.  Connor outlook look good though because Bell while in Pittsburgh does not seem interested in playing.

Speaking of Leveon Bell, Alex was defeated by Matt who was backed by a 30 point game by Kamara and no support from his QB but when you can roster a guy who your uncle coached in little league, maybe you have to take the lack of production.

Doug was able to defeat Dan, or maybe better put Dan defeated Dan went to church and some of his play were last minute scratches so he got a couple zeros. It could be worst, it could have been a playoff game Dan and your still tied for your division lead with a 4-5 record. But since I play you this week, feel free to go to church and keep all the players on bye in this week.


One quick thing, even though it is my b-day writing this Connor b-day is also this week so happy birthday on the 10th Connor.


Now everyone's favorite thing power ranking of random things.
Birthday so has to be cakes that my aunt makes

12. Chocolate cake- Great second cake because it keeps people from eating the good cakes.
11. Almond pound cake- it's pretty good but doesn't have icing so that hurts it in the rankings
10. Red Velvet cake- uses the cream cheese icing, which is delicous so i approve to eating the spare icing;
9. Angel food cake- light so it almost not a dessert but a side to dinner
8. Apple Cake- she has only made this one once but it was good, since consistency is part of these arbitrary rating it can't make the top 5
7. Coconut sticky cake- I don't know how to describe it, the icing is super sticky and has coconut on top
6. Pound cake- varies icing to go above on top makes this fall just outside the top 5.
5. Butter cake- well i think it is time to get another slice of cake
Back, this is going to be a bit later than I expected
4. Spice cake - This one has a maple icing and I can't believe I am saying this it is almost too sweet, this cake is so rich though it limits you to one slice, or two with a big glass of milk
3. Sponge cake- I just like how moist and dense this cake is, though I have had it by other people and it can be really bad so I can't blame you for not liking it
2. Triple layer yellow buttercream- man these cake is good, it always, I think my aunt could make this one in her sleep
1. Carrot cake- Connor can comment about these one

Well that's my list of aunt's cakes, guess you guys can just comment your favorite type of cake or what cake you have for your birthday.

Good luck everyone.
