Thursday results and standings thus far - and a new genius among us!!!

Friends, Romans, Countrymen,

Ah, now this is more like it. Things are tightening up, pool-wise. The first 16 places are separated by a mere 6 points. What is so rare as a close pool? Lovely, lovely. One note, my swell cousin Sarah and her equally swell husband Tim are right at the top. I think I neglected to mention to them that Pool Rookies are officially ineligible to win. It's in the rule book, you can look it up.

And who, you may be asking, is our new Genius? Why, our own Steven Mark Backs, that's who. Mr. Backs, normally a baseball guy, picked all four games correctly last night. He was the only one of us to do so. Take a bow, Steven Mark Backs.

Standings follow, attached hereto.

big fluffy cotton candy hugs and rainbow bunny kisses from me, everybody (it's snowing up here right now and I'm ready to murder. I think I've snapped.),
