WEEK 1 SCORES - SEACREST OUT is WEEKLY WINNER

So the first week of ranking, watching, ranking, watching, ranking and watching is over.

The scores are posted below in this format:

TEAM NAME points for Colton, Garrett, Amy, Joanne, Bonus points for Colton, Garrett, Amy, Joanne

I know it is not pretty, but it is all I am going to give you. An "x" means that I did not get the picks from you. If you made them and I am missing them - let me know. Also let me know if you think I am giving you the wrong total.

Here are the scores as I see them.

Congrats to Seacrest Out. They get to wear the yellow shirt until next week. They used their insider knowledge to rack up all 20 bonus points.

Colton was the consensus loser in the pre-show picks with 176 points allotted him between all of the teams. Garrett was a close second with 173.

Every person who made the bonus picks included Amy.

Notice that although Seacrest Out has an early lead, the next two teams are the only other teams that have ever won Fantasy Idol. What professionals they are.

Well, I'm sorry Joanne's gone, but I won't miss the other three . . . oof! I dunno why they make them sing again after they got the boot--perhaps as special punishment to the viewers?

And, Mr. Team Paulatics, it's good to be a professional at something.

There's plenty of time to see how these scores pan out.

It is good to see that maybe the Sanjaya factor won't happen this year with both Colton and Garrett gone.

ProfB, you could just get the losers sent by text without watching the show. Makes for a less painful evening.

profB said...

Uh-huh. See if I send you the losers next week, JC . . .

And I totally agree on the Sanjaya factor--I didn't pick Garrett for a bonus for fear of that. Glad to be wrong.

I'm reminded of an Office quote--
Dwight (explaining a game to Jim): In Second Life, there are no winners and losers.
Jim: Oh, there are losers.

SON OF A........!! Who do the Seacrest Outs think they are?? Comin in here acting all newbie and picking poor weepin Josiah and then they run away with the lead the first week??? WHO invited them to join this league??? What were they thinking??? For the love of.......

Oh wait. That was me. Sigh. Sorry folks. Good job Seacrest Out (she said begrudgingly)!

Hey Prof - I LOVE that Office quote!

My other favorite is when Jim says, "From time to time I send Dwight faxes. From himself. From the FUTURE."

Here's to better luck next week for ol' team SimonSays!
