Analyst of the Year IX

The Marathon of the Ass has been a real Hee-Haw to start the year! After three Weeks, the Analysts collectively have 50% Pick Accuracy and 8% Trifecta Accuracy Rates!

KateTDid (2 Trifectas, 7 Correct Picks) holds her lead over Mo Money (1 Trifecta, 7 Correct Picks) and The Strategist (1 Trifecta, 5 Correct Picks) in second and third place, respectively.

The rest of the Asses have 0 Trifectas so we have to enumerate their Correct Picks…Geesh!

As for the rest of the Analysts tied for fourth place with 6 Correct Picks, Craft Brew, Atwork and Boo Boo still seek that elusive third Correct Pick in a single Week. Roxy Trot moves into seventh place with 5 Correct Picks.

With 4 Correct Picks each, Woody, B-Reezy, Big Tuna, Wise Orangutan, Bookie, and Wreck It Ralph lead the back of the field.

Jimmy V, Sponge Mom, and Bug Bug (3 Correct Picks each) hold off the feisty (if not particularly prophetic) Little Tuna (2 Correct Picks) in last place!

Note: The tables now run from left to right, not top to bottom.

PC-Fecta Derby IX

Down the back stretch, the field is starting to take shape in the ninth running of the PC-Fecta Derby!

The Strategist (17 points) charges from the back of the field to tie KateTDid (17 points) for the lead. Both have 2 Correct Home Team Picks, and The Strategist leads by a nose with the better points differential per game (27.5 vs. 13). Boo Boo (14 points) slips into third place with a respectable 14 points. Rounding out the top of the field, Mo Money (9 points) gives chase.

In the middle of the field, Craft Brew (7 points) and Atwork (7 points) struggle to hold fifth place. Both have 1 Correct Home Team Pick, and Craft Brew leads by nose hair on third tiebreaker (1 vs. 0.5 point differential per game!). Woody (4 points) is in seventh place, followed by Jimmy V, Roxy Trot, Big Tuna, Bookie and Wreck It Ralph with 3 points each.

At the back of the field with 0 points each, Sponge Mom, B-Reezy, Little Tuna, Wise Orangutan, and Bug Bug remain puzzled by the opened gates!

PC-Fecta Derby IX

And they are off for the ninth running of the PC-Fecta Derby!

Woody (4 points) and Craft Brew (4 points) vie for third place with *lame* Trifectas plus an *extra* point. Craft Brew has the inside lane with the better Turnover Differential.

The Seeders’ Cup VIII

Coming around the near turn, the Analysts set a blistering pace as half of the field adds double-digit Trifecta points to their totals!

Sponge Mom (32 Trifecta Points) widens her lead over the competition with a *base* Trifecta with 10 *bonus* points. She takes a 4 points lead into the home stretch over her closest rival, Wise Orangutan (28 Trifecta Points) who tripled his total with a 19-point *base* Trifecta in Leg 3. After two solid weeks, B-Reezy (27 Trifecta Points) climbs breezily into third place.

None of the leaders, however have a comfortable lead over the middle of the field!

In fourth place, Roxy Trot (26 Trifecta Points) separates from the rest of the field. Craft Brew and Little Tuna (25 Trifecta Points each) vie for fifth place. Both have 2 Correct Home Team Picks and 16 Seeder points after three Legs, so it’s a dead heat! Not far behind, Jimmy V (23 Trifecta Points) holds seventh place, trailed by Big Tuna (22 Trifecta Points) in eighth and Woody (20 Trifecta Points) in ninth.

In the back of the field, KateTDid (15 Trifecta Points) and Bookie (14 Trifecta Points) remain mathematically alive for the Win and Place from tenth and eleventh position. Atwork and Mo Money (13 Trifecta Points) are also able to close the distance on Sponge Mom down the home stretch, but it may take something of a miracle for either to Win or Place.

And, lastly, The Strategist (11 Trifecta Points) has been eliminated from the Win, but remains mathematically alive for the Place with an extraordinarily strategic Pick Three — more extraordinarily strategic than last week in any case!

Analyst of the Year VIII

Jimmy V sets a new record for Trifectas in a season (11) and ties the record for Correct Picks (41)! With one week to go, he has all but finished in the lead for Analyst of the Year!

Place remains a toss up headed into Week 18. Sponge Mom (9 Trifectas and 41 Correct Picks – also tying the season record!) holds onto a 4 Correct Pick lead over Mo Money (9 Trifectas and 37 Correct Picks) in third place. Sponge Mom needs a Trifecta to stay ahead comfortably, but if she busts, Mo Money could outpace her to 10 Trifectas and Place!

At 7 Trifectas each — a solid season and enough to Win the first three seasons! — Woody (38 Correct Picks), Roxy Trot (37 Correct Picks), and B-Reezy (33 Correct Picks) hold fourth, fifth and sixth place. Little Tuna (6 Trifectas and 34 Correct Picks) holds seventh place, a spot in the top half of the field.

Craft Brew, The Strategist, and Big Tuna (each with 5 Trifectas and 35 Correct Picks) are in a dead heat for eighth place. If Craft Brew does not surpass Little Tuna, it will be the first year he ever finishes in the bottom half of the field (he has the current active record of consecutive top-half finishes). These three also are at no risk of losing Claims in the playoffs.

The remaining Analysts with 3 Trifectas each are in a contest to finish in eleventh or twelfth place in order to avoid losing a Claim in the Super Trifecta Bowl! KateTDid (35 Correct Picks) currently holds eleventh place. Wise Orangutan makes a move (34 Correct Picks) to reach twelfth place. Leaving Atwork and Bookie (31 Correct Picks) tied in the race to the bottom of the list as the Analysts with No Claim in the playoffs!

The Seeders’ Cup VIII

Down the back stretch, the Analyst find their strides, portending a dramatic conclusion to The Seeders’ Cup VIII!

Sponge Mom (16 Trifecta Points) holds onto her early lead with a *base* Trifecta with 7 Seeder *bonus* points. Trailing closely, however, after a perfect Seeder Leg, Craft Brew and Jimmy V (15 Trifecta Points each) move into Place and Show, respectively (Craft Brew leads on second tiebreaker: 2 Correct Home Team Picks).

B-Reezy adds 13 Trifecta Points to move into sole possession of fourth place. One length behind (12 Trifecta Points each), five Analysts jockey for fifth place (in order of scoreboard): Woody, Big Tuna, Little Tuna, Roxy Trot, and KateTDid. Tiebreakers suggest Big Tuna and KateTDid have the edge in this competition (third tiebreakers), but plenty of race remains!

The Strategist (11 Trifecta Points) falls to tenth place. Wise Orangutan, Atwork, and Bookie find themselves at the back of the field once again with 9 Trifecta Points! Mo Money (5 Trifecta Points) is seeing more horses’ asses in this silly game than she has seen at any other point this season!
