In this week's Tournament of Champions brackets: Carl Goetz topped Division 1, while Chris Lewis triumphed over his enemies in Division 2. John Keck had his way with Division 3, and nobody claimed victory in Division 4, and in fact we aren't even going to talk about Division 4 as it was a complete embarassment. Finally, Janelle (Laube) Lamar (Division 4) walloped this week's Interdivisional bracket. In terms of overall points: Carl Goetz calls the shots for Division 1; Aubrey Moren reigns over Division 2; Carter Collins is in the driver's seat in Division 3; and Lindsay Jamis holds the reins in Division 4.
NEXT WEEK:
- First, on lanes 19&20, 2nd-place Ain't No Sh!t will share a couple of pitchers with 3rd-place Dios Mios (hcp 145). Ain't No Sh!t is expected to see their averages fall off a cliff as they lose the series but avoid getting swept; while Dios Mios are forecast to drop their average a bit even as they enjoy their victories.
- Moving to lanes 21&22, 8th-place Dave and the Wingers will compete against 9th-place Livin' On A Spare (hcp 16). The Wingers might perform well and win the series; while Livin' On A Spare ought to hold steady as they avoid getting swept.
- Then, over on lanes 23&24, 5th-place Is This Billable? will throw some gutter balls with 6th-place Bowl Movement (hcp 48). Is This Billable? will likely have a bit of an off night and get swept; while Bowl Movement will probably raise their average while they rack up a sweep.
- Next up, on lanes 25&26, 1st-place Chico's Bail Bonds will roll against 10th-place WWJB (hcp 146). Chico's might perform well and sweep the series; while WWJB ought to hold steady as they endure a rough night.
- Finally, on lanes 27&28, 7th-place Bad Newz Kennels will challenge 4th-place Spare The Rod, Split The Kitty (hcp 64). The Kennels are predicted to roll a little low, but split the series with Spare The Rod; while Spare The Rod is anticipated to hold steady as they keep the series tied.
