The Week That Was

Well, it happened in Week 9 of the very first season of the DFC, that being a week won with a 5-3 record. Wookiee Fulaytar did it, and 68 regular season weeks have gone by since its happened... and Yours Truly managed to do it. I've taken the week, winning my third week ever, at 5-3.

It was a bugger of a week, actually, with 2 through 7 also finishing at 5-3. Tad Roose takes 2nd, while Eddy Jr, Mackey, David Mark and Gina Williams all lock up at 3rd. Tebe Shaw finishes 7th.
In 8th is Jason Turnbow, tied with Mark Gainey, at 4-4, and in 10th is Jonathan Osborne at 4-4.

Also Finishing:
4-4: Gary Eubanks, Sarah Hasha, Daniel Powell, Matt Latta
3-5: James Hawbaker, Zack Graves, Justin Glenn, Barnie, Jennifer Ernst, Tommy McLeod, Eddy McBroom, Jason Duren, Drew Morris, Jason Demastus, Tyler Campbell, Trey Cartledge, Scott Latta, Lori Smith, Tim Wasyluka, Garrett Cheney, Ryan Sherman
2-6: Ty Coffey, Michael Nipp

If I May Mention This...
Notably, this is just the results email, and most people just scan it, looking for their record, perhaps looking to see what their division looks like, and so on.
However, since I know that most, if not the entire league, is bonded by a common belief in Christ, I wanted to present to you a prayer request. One of our own, Jennifer Ernst, who has been in the DFC since season 1 and has been a friend of the Deuce for longer, has a need.
She and her husband have been trying to have a baby... and without going to details, they've had struggles, both frustrating and tragic, and are now with a final option that they are going to. So, to the DFC, please mention Jenn's name in your prayers--if everyone does this once, thats 33 voices lifted to Him for the Ernst family... and I'm sure it will be felt. She will definately keep us posted. Thanks -- DFC Admin.

Lies, Darn Lies & Statistics


  • Inching closer to 400 regular season victories, Jennifer now has 379. To reach that milestone, one has to assume she'll win at least 59 games this year... and you can probably assume that. At 371, I'd have to get 64 wins... and that may not happen.
  • Mark Gainey has 293 wins, 7 away from 300. Little Eddy is 12 away.
  • The race to 100 continues, with Gina Williams at 88, Jason Barnette at 85 and Tebe Shaw at 83
  • Looking at all-time wins (regular + playoffs), only Yours Truly and Jennifer have crossed 400 wins lifetime. Big Eddy is racing towards that milestone, at 386, while DMOsborne is at 385.
  • Daniel Powell is slowly making his way up the All Time College ranks as well, as he passes Tommy McLeod this week for the #6 spot all time.
  • In All Time Pro, Tim Wasyluka passes Wookiee Fulaytar for #17 all time, placing Wookiee into 18th... though Lori is only 2 games behind him, and will probably take him this week.
  • Oh what a torrid week it was... arguably the worst week in the history of the DFC, with 20 people finishing 3-5 or worse. I went back and looked at all the weekly finishes in the DFC past seasons... the only one that comes close to this was Week 3 in DFC IV (2003!), where 17 people finished 3-5 or worse. Take into consideration that there were 24 in the DFC that season as opposed to 34, but yet, its still not a good thing.
  • Tad Roose, however, had no issues, with his 5-3 week extending his .500+ record now to 39 weeks.
