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
