They’re back! The power rankings have returned. Did your team make the Top 10? If not, it’s time to start recruiting nerds so you can make a run at the top spot.
1. The Jams. This team has been simply unstoppable for the past three months. There used to be parity at the Vous. Now the Jams have won the last 9 times they’ve played. One of the hottest streaks in JGT quizzo history. The bounty next week is up to $45.
2. Duane’s World. It’s a real toss up between Duane’s World and the Steak. I’m going to give Duane’s World the slight edge primarily to piss off Nate.
3. Steak Em Up. See #2.
4. L. Ron Hubbard’s Diabetics. Two huge blowout wins (by 22 and 39 points) this week has this team looking to make a run at the top.
5. Where’s John’s Rum? O’Neals is a toss up, with the Rum winning one week, the Savage Ear winning one week, and then the two teams combining forces to win this past week. Rum gets the slight edge, primarily to piss off Todd.
6. Savage Ear. See #5
7. Peenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This team changes their name every week, but now that they’ve started playing consistently, they’ve shown they can hang with the big boys. A 2nd place finish at O’Neals this week, and an upset over Duane’s World and Steak Em Up at Black Sheep last week.
8. Magnus ver Magnusson. A win at a Jam-less Rendeavous last week, followed by a 2nd place finish this week. Their propensity for late game collapses has some voters worried, but this team is the odds-on favorite to end the Jams streak.
9. Why Can’t Us. A win at Ugly American last week, but they were apparently scared off by my threats to rap at quizzo this week and didn’t make it.
10. Team D’Brickashaw. An unheralded team thus far, but they always seem to be in the mix at the Tap House. This is a team that’s about 2 nerds away from making a run up the rankings.
