Updated Standings - thru January 4th

Apologies again for the delay on the standings update. I spent Saturday in Cleveland celebrating a friend's milestone birthday and my pulse was about six bpm as I attempted to recover on Sunday. I sort of feel like a human again -- sort of.

We have some interesting developments at the top of the standings, as proven degenerates John Stromberg and Randy Jacobs have found their ways into the money conversation. Just two games left, including the Lending Tree Bowl tonight from lovely Mobile, Alabama. The Ragin' Cajuns are heavy favorites, but Blaine Gabbert's little brother will have the Miami squad fired up. I can't think of a reason to watch this football game, even if you have money on the line. Take down your Christmas decorations; reorganize your closet; watch the Jeopardy! documentary that came out last week and then watch old Saturday Night Live Jeopardy! skits. Do not, however, under any circumstances, watch this football game.
