SCORES - FINAL 12 - Adios David Hermandance

I never knew that "pizza bistro" was a nickname for male strip clubs. Remind me never to go to one of those new Pizza Hut restaurants.
Tonight we had to say goodbye to the most famous male stripper in America. David didn't seem too happy about it. He actually looked kind of pissed that he was ousted before Kristy - but to be fair, it is difficult to tell the difference between David's pissed off look and his sassy, no-nonsense singing face.

Mr. Hernandez technically had a good voice. He is just up against a group of guys who generally have some sort of artistry to them. Outback Johns, Davy Cook, Castro and Archie all seem to have good instincts of how to change a song to fit their artistic persona. Chikezie isn't quite in that league, but he sure can run around a bunch. Hernandez on the other hand just seems to regurgitate the songs - running them through a R&B vocal trick machine and performing them like only the best Pigeon Forge performers could. His performances remind me of the Freshman Vocal Seminar classes at Belmont - where all of the girls sang their best versions of "Here In My Heart" to the Susan Ashton track. Nothing really special about it.

Now that we have said our goodbyes we can get on to the scores.

We will continue to keep the Full Season scores going, but for the new teams that just joined us, I will keep everyone's scores from the Top 12 as well. You should see the two different score columns on the right. Of course Full Season is the one that matters most, but the Top 12 winner will be cool too.

This week we have multiple weekly winners - Team 35, Fire and Ice and Thaddeus Glapp. Congratulations. All three of them ranked Hernandez 11th in the PP Picks and gave him 8 bonus points.

A few teams didn't even make their bonus picks (Hasselhoff, The New Last Place, AMightyWin). Two of those teams were newbies - so I guess I should say that it is important to subscribe to this blog so you can stay updated on the instructions in new blog posts. One team (Bessie Moo) was trying to make a comeback but forgot to invite Mr. Hernandez to the bonus pick party - so she might as well have skipped the bonus picks too.

Thanks to some great point swings, the field is getting closer for the Full Season scores. The Paulatics have moved into a first place tie with Seacrest Out. Man those PaulaTics people are super smart.

Zebra Fight tried to hide his homophobia by giving David H. better marks than he deserved - and it backfired. He dropped a number of places.

The scores listed below tell the team name, the team's PPPick ranking for D.Hernandez, the team's bonus pick ranking for him, the teams total points for this week. Look at the columns on the right for the standings and total scores.

Well, now our favorite singer/stripper (as opposed to singer/waiter or waitress) can get back to his ga--er--day job. Upside: Zebra Fight now has new reasons to visit Pizza Hut. Maybe KKKristy will be there to take your order next week.

Hassels, we don't wanna hear any excuses about not making the bonus picks.

Methinks Paulatics' rise in the standings is due to some of that 'new math' I keep hearing about.

And profB is about 25 hours away from spring break! But, he will not use that as a lame excuse not to make his picks next week.

I'm embarrassed and all-around generally ashamed of myself.

If I can't win Idol Schmidol... how can I go on?

Wait, I didn't win last year, either.

Dang.

Oh, well, it's worth it to be able to come here for witty commentary. Makes my day.
