The Fall 2008 season draws to a close, with Chico's Bail Bonds officially earning this season's championship title! The final week saw one team climb in the standings, while one team slipped. Freda Schroeder picked up this week's high game (169) and series (501) for the women, while Kendall Kukowski earned this week's high game (236) and series (587) for the men. Read on for all the rest of the details!
First up, on lanes 19 & 20: Chico's Bail Bonds alternated splits with Ain't No Sh!t. Topped by Ken M. Wilson with his below-average 506 series, Chico's collected 3 wins against Ain't No Sh!t. Meanwhile, Kendall Kukowski took the lead in Ain't No Sh!t with his 587 despite his team notching only a single win. Chico's Bail Bonds complete in 1st place, while Ain't No Sh!t wind up in 2nd.
On lanes 21 & 22: Dios Mios spent some quality time with Bowl Movement. Despite being led by Bill Krejci with his 539 series, Dios Mios accomplished only 1 win against Bowl Movement. In the midst of this, trifecta-winner (#1 Head-to-Head, #1 Power-Ranked, and Most Valuable Bowler) Carter Collins oversaw Bowl Movement with his commanding 532 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Dios Mios close out in 3rd place, while Bowl Movement end up with 4th.
On lanes 23 & 24: Bad Newz Kennels deliberately ate cheese sticks in front of Spare The Rod, Split The Kitty.

Concurrently, Will Jeter commanded Spare The Rod with his 473 as his team took the series with 3 wins. Bad Newz Kennels drop 1 spot in the standings to end the season in 6th place, while Spare The Rod moves 1 spot to cross the finish line in 5th.
On lanes 25 & 26: Is This Billable? traded lane malfunctions with Dave and the Wingers. Despite the strength of Ryan Doll with his (either injured, sick, or sandbagging) 392 series, Is This Billable? got swept by the Wingers. . With the Wingers forfeiting, all Is This Billable? needed to do was roll within 40 pins of their combined team average each game. However, that would not be the case. Is This Billable? end in 7th place, while the Wingers come out in 8th.
Finally, down on lanes 27 & 28: Livin' On A Spare chucked gutter balls with WWJB. Demonstrating the prowess of Ben Lee with his above-average 359 series, Livin' On A Spare collected 3 wins against WWJB. . With WWJB forfeiting, all Livin' On A Spare needed to do was roll within 40 pins of their combined team average each game. However, that would not be the case. Livin' On A Spare 9th place, while WWJB 10th.
