DFC25 Week Five RESULTS

 

THE WEEK THAT WAS
Tyler Campbell, who in fact did declare himself "The Sexy Beast of the DFC" (likely at a time when he was a more boisterous teen versus the married father of 3 he is now), won a championship in DFCXII, back in 2011.  And yet, he's only had two weekly wins in his career -- first in DFCVI (Week 10) and then Week 4 DFCXVII (2016).  And 75 weeks later... Tyler pulls another one, going 9-1, barely getting past Tad "The Dynasty" Roose, who landed in 2nd at 9-1, who edged out DMOsborne at 9-1, for 3rd.

Lil Eddy McB finishes in 4th at 8-2, and also 8-2 are Big Tom J and Matty "Pinky the Elder" Pinky tying for 5th and Roth From Wyoming and Mikey "Future Champ" Nipp tying for 7th.

Young Garrett Cheney ends up 9th at 7-3, and Mark "The Mighty" Gainey in 10th at 7-3.

Also finishing:
7-3: Lt Dan "Magic Legs" Sellers... Drew // Morris... Hurricane Rhett... Trey "The Answer" Cartledge... Steven "The Principal" Ray... Danny "3D" Powell

6-4: David "What The" Tuck... James "The Prediction Maker" Hawbaker... Yours Truly... Tommy "The Higlander" McLeod... Drew "The Grassman" Warren... Garrison "The Pride of Hiawassee" Ryfun... Big Eddy McB... Jonathan "Oz" Osborne... Jacob "Pinky the Pinky" Pinkerton... Jenny "Sunny Days" Ernst

5-5: Bradley "Pinky the Wiser" Pinky... Zack "The Attack" Graves... Coach DiBello... 

4-6: Aussie Nate Johnston... Mitchell "Pinky the Younger" Pinky... The Big Wasyluka... Chris "YO TEACH" Croyle... Matt "The Coca Cola Cowboy" Mink

LIES, DARN LIES, & STATISTICS

• Contrary to popular belief, I don't have ALL the stats -- some are hard to keep with over 25 years, but I can say that this week was a disaster for the ages... out of 34 DFC'ers this year, only 9 people had a winning record and 2 were at .500... the rest took a hit. 
• For the first 12 seasons, we did 12 weeks, with 8 games per week. Since DFCXIII, we've done 10 weeks, equaling 96 games (8 weeks at 10 games, 2 weeks at 8 games... this year is the first time we've scheduled 100 games, only for the historic 25th year).  
• All of that is to say, Aussie Nate winning the week at 7-3 is somewhat rare air, as out of 113 weeks since the beginning of DFC XIII, there were only EIGHT times previous when someone won the week with only 7 games (out of a 10 game weekend) -- Lori "Sunshine" Beirne, Yours Truly, Matty "Pinky the Elder" Pinky, Tad "The Dynasty" Roose, David "What Tha" Tuck, James "The Prediction Maker" Hawbaker, and doing it twice, Tommy "The Highlander" McLeod.
• If you are wondering if anyone won a week with a dismal 6-4 record, the answer is yes.  Drew "The Grassman" Warren won Week 2 in DFC XXIII... and yes, one 5-5 record got Lt Dan "Magic Legs" Sellers a weekly win in Week 2 of DFC XXII.
• Okay! Let's look at all time stats... Mark "The Mighty" Gainey hit 1500 wins lifetime (1510) as did Tommy "The Highlander" McLeod (1509), good enough for 4th and 5th, respectively, all time.   Jeni Ernst is next, at 1460.  
• Two time defending DFC Champ Zack "The Attack" Graves just hit 1100 wins (1102) and Steven Ray hit the 1000 mark (now at 1005). Next to 1000, Rhett Barnett, though it's a season or two away, as he's at 626.
• Lt Dan Sellers just hit 900 exactly, while Garrison "The Pride of Vidalia" Ryfun is a little bit behind, and will get to 200 wins likely next week (he's at 197)
•  More milestones approaching... DMOsborne is 17 away from 1400 at 1383... Daniel Powell is at 1286, close to 1300... 
• Finally... streaks were broken, as a bad week for everyone kills that .500+ and .500 streak.  The current .500 or better streak?  Yours Truly at 15 weeks, followed by DMOsborne at 14 weeks.  
• Going over .500 each week?  Current streak is held by Tyler "The Self Proclaimed Sexy Beast of the DFC" Campbell... at three weeks.
