"OK, I've got it all figured out now." --Ray (Indy)

See, now that wasn't so bad. The top five picks were all winners this week, accounting for over 84% of the contestants. Now that the dust has settled a little bit on this season, it should be smooth sailing from here on out. Right?

"Here goes another 3 and out. When does the 2006 pool start?" --Trahan (Car)

And yet, amongst the celebrating masses, there was still a handful of people who never picked a winning team in 2005. They are the first ones to leave the pool. Rest assured, they will be followed by many more. Despite the embarrassment of going three-and-out, at least they never had to deal with the pain of getting their hopes up.

Current standings...
00 LOSS -- 112 Leaders
01 LOSS -- 304 Followers
02 LOSS -- 105 Stragglers
03 LOSS -- 17 Deserters

"Can I get a Bye Week?" --Navarro

There are no breaks in the Ducey Pool. It is a 5-month marathon to the finish line. Stay on top of your picks. Get them in by the deadline and do not pick any team more than once! You can all do it. I know you can. Good luck.
