Just got off the phone with Big Red, who is in Texas with her daughter, Wendy, and she asked me to tell everyone that she is thrilled and honored to win the Millie.
She also added that Omaha should be proud to live with a celebrity...

Week 17 Stats Corrected
Wayne called and informed me that I used the uncorrected week 16 stats and that I assigned a bonus point to the wrong game this week. I corrected the stats (see below) and did away with the bonus point this week as there was no Monday Night game.
Big Red Snags the Millie
Congratulations to Karen Gonyea for winning the coveted Millie award for winning the regular season. In true GoZone style, she was among the leaders from start to finish. After jousting for the lead with Wayne and Peg for 7 weeks, she took over the lead with week 8.
Following Karen's 189 points was Wayne with 188 and Ed with 185. Karen's 189 points puts her in a tie for third place with Kevin for most points in a season. Ed had 190 and is in second place. Mike leads with 192. Mike, Ed and Kev's scores all happened last year.
Congrats again to our very deserving Millie winner, Karen Gonyea (aka Big Red).

Week 16 Audit
My diligent work as GO Zone Auditor has revealed yet another week of incorrect figures in the Commish's Week 16 stats.
Esteemed member Patrick has correctly pointed out the Commish blatantly gave himself a point for picking the Chiefs to win on Sunday night, when in fact they lost. The Commish's stats were indeed 12-4 (not 13-3) for a total (with his bonus point for Monday night's game) of 13, not the 14 points he tried to slide past my watchful, and increasingly suspicious, eyes. The Commish's accumulated points total should be 166, not the 167 he tried to slide by us.
As pointed out by the honorable Patrick, The Ghost's record for Week 16 was actually 12-4, not 12-3 as shown in the Commish's stats. It is correct that since this error was on the loss column, it is superficial and doesn't affect the Ghost's points total, correctly shown as 172.
But wait, this report is not finished.
Move over to Mike's son Luke, aka Peterborough, points total. Peterborough's record for the week was, in fact, 11-5. Since he picked the losing Broncos on Monday night, he receives no bonus point.
But the Commish tried to slip son Luke an invisible point, upping his total to 12 for the week and an inflated accumulated total of 159, instead of the 158 he has actually earned.

Scandal
Looks like the Commish gifted himself an extra point. Scandalous!
He did not mark his pick of the Chiefs as a loss and should be 12-4 on the week, not 13-3, with a points total of 166. Previous Total 153+12+Monday Night Extra Point=166.
Also the Ghost's record should be 12-4, not 12-3. Points total is correct though.

Where is the Commish?
Has out-of-control Guido kidnapped the Commish? It's well into the afternoon on the east coast and the Commish still hasn't posted the week 16 results?
Guido's disruptive behavior needs to end NOW. He throws out accusations with no hint of supporting evidence, much like his pal in Deland, casting aspersions on the good reputations of more responsible members of the GO Zone.
It appears the Commish is out of commission. Is this by choice, or is he incapacitated and a victim of Guido's attempt at a power grab?

Collusion??
There appears to more than just a hint of collusion on two fronts. First, the Commish has been unusually quiet amid the Guido firestorm. No fines, no suspension, not even a whiff of whether to question that slouch of an IT director. Secondly, the records show that Luke and Marc have almost identical picks this year along with The king of the North and The Ghost, The Commish and Peg, and Nick and Amy. However the saddest of all seems to be coming from Nebraska but the difficult aspect of this one surrounds the question of is Omaha picking for Big Red or is Big Red picking for Omahaha. One report also says that there is possible collusion between Onahaha and the Commish in that picks are coming in on monday mornings! This also could involve Guido on a number of fronts!
All of this will make for a busy summer meeting as bylaw revisions, fines and suspensions will headline the agenda.

Sadly responding
I am appalled at the turn of events with this kindred football league. I don’t know who to trust and who to believe anymore.. Rude Jude? Really!!!
Guido the guppy
All league members should be aghast at the outburst from Guido. As much as he is spot on with his assessment of Omaha, he seems a bit on edge with the other dutiful members. It may be that he can’t find his pillbox. No matter what the case, his verbal Trump-like assault on Deland and the Boss calls for an immediate suspension and loss of pay. The bylaws clearly state that any member on any given week who cannot find the survey, they automatically take the home team . Guido should take his sorry ass back to Puerto Rico and rotate on his bar stool until his attitude is adjusted. Even Omaha with his multitude of problems could agree that Guido has stepped out of bounds. One final note of interest is that Guido was seen sleeping in the urinal at the NCAA volleyball tournament somewhere in Nebraska. Another violation of his contract. This does not bode well for him and calls for yet another investigation.
I certainly hope Jude the Prude will be able to recover from all the insults!

I'm Back Bitches, and That Means You Omablah
Yes, I'm back and you will regret how you have been abusing the Commish. Omablah has made as many errors as he has found, and where do all of those stupid titles come from? Only the SAC can bestow a title, honorary or otherwise. And I believe there is a fine of 2 points off your total if you are caught absconding with a title.
Looks like Omablah and Big Red are running away with the Millie and the Chappie. Maybe the Ghost if he gets his ass moving. How the hell did that happen? What happened to Rude Jude? She was being investigated this time last year, and now her spirit is broken. But at least she isn't bouncing on the bottom like the Puke of Deland. What a joke! He is lucky to break even on any given week. And his wife Bossy will be pulling her "pick every underdog" strategy once the playoffs arrive, that is plain to see. Ironically, if she had stuck to that she would have won the Chappie last year!
 |
| Me and my bud Trumpy. Eat your hearts out! |
And how does the Commish let Luke, Marc and Lindsey all submit the exact same picks last week? That is disgusting. They aren't even trying to hide it. And then when I started an investigation, guess what I found? None of them made a Sunday Pick! The Commish assigned them the home team, AND THEN THEY HAVE A RECORD WEEK, for them. What kind of happy horseshit is this! When I complained to the Commish, he told me that was the proper protocol. Proper Protocol! He should have given them every visiting team, so they would have been 4-12!!
He sighed and told me it has happened before. Two weeks ago Sean and Kyle forgot to make their picks, or were too busy or something. AND THEY WON THE DAMN WEEK!!!!! I don't see how if the Commish can go to the trouble of making out the damn picks chart and putting it into the Survey Monkey and collating all the 288 choices the League makes every week and putting them into the damn picks chart and replacing them with the Xed out team logos and totaling everyone's picks and putting them into the stats chart so everyone can complain about it every week, and suffer the slings and arrows of Insufferable Omablah's triumphant crowing every time he finds an error, members can't take the 45 seconds they need to fill out the damn chart!
Well I'm back and I've got the Commish's back like none of you have. Sleep well...for now.

Amy, Omaha, Guido and a Glitch Fixed
1. No Amy. You picked the Panthers.
2. You're correct, Omaha. (and you know how much it pains me to say it.)
3. Deland alerted me to the fact that the week 16 games were the same as week 15. That happens occasionally when Guido is around when I am creating the surveys. It is fixed now. If you go to the link and click on it and the week 15 games comes up, refresh the page, or if you are Omaha and have no idea how to refresh a page, have Big Red do it.
4. No games on Thursday. Two games on Saturday. I won't be around tomorrow because I have to go to Tallahassee to bail out pick up Guido.
Week 15 Audit
Nice try, Commish.
If you count the "X's" you will see that you have 8 of them, Commish. Thus, your record for the week was 8-8, not 9-7, giving you a corrected points total of 153 instead of the 154 you posted.

Wow! Unbelievable
Simply one for the records. Wow, just unbelievable.
Illinois dominated Nebraska the first two sets. It looked like a huge mismatch.
But we came back.
We came from behind to win the 3rd set, then the 4th set to square the match.
The 5th set (which only goes to 15) was back and forth until we scored the final 4 points to win 15-11.
Unbelievable.
What a classic.

Oops...
Well, it appears that I'm not infallible. The discrepancy occurred last week, when I recorded Sanford with a 10-5 record, plus a bonus point for a total of 11 points. I mistakenly recorded that everyone picked the Texans on the Monday night game, but Sanford picked the Titans.
I could say I was just testing everyone to see if you're paying attention, but I'll take the honorable approach and admit I goofed.

Title Man
Once again the league has been showered with the senseless accusations( that makes 12 this month) by Omahahahaha. His non-supportive figures only enforces the type of non-focus that comes out of the Midwest. However, maybe carrying some many self-appointed titles has interfered with common sense thinking. The only position he should hold is VP in Charge of Calculator Battery Replacement.

Deland
Concern for Omaha
I am not sure what is ailing poor Omahahahahahaha. but he should get medical attention immediately. The myopic man has raised an issue where none exists nor should exist, not for the first time.
His claim of a mistake in the point total of Sanford, one which Sanford neither reported or requested, is based solely on his week 12 point total being 124 instead of the reported 122. However, he offers no proof that 124 should be the correct total and rushes to accusations and slander.
The week 12 Stats verify that Sanford earned 122 points and was cut and pasted into the week 13 stats page. Neither I for anyone else knows why Sanford should have 124 points after week 12, but Omahhahahahahahaha insists that is so.
I know it is trendy to just make up statements without proof or validity, but we should all at the very least agree on the facts. I am not perfect. I make mistakes. When Omahahahahahahaha points any valid arithmetic errors, I quickly check his figures and correct the record.
But he has the advantage of having all the facts and figures in front of him. He must make a bigger effort to be as accurate as he can.

Week 13 Audit
I had such high hopes for Week 13. There are 18 players in the GO Zone football league.
Our bumbling Commish got the first 14 players totals correct.
Then came player No. 15, young Sanford.
The Commish correctly said he had a 10-6 record, plus 1 bonus point = 11 Week 13 points.
But alas, his hot streak once again turned cold. The Commish then added those 11 points to Week 12's total points, which he incorrectly listed as 122 points, giving him a new total of 133 points.
EXCEPT - Sanford's week 12 total points were 124, two points more than the Commish gave him credit for.
Sanford's correct numbers are: Week 13 W-L record = 10-6
Bonus = 1
Total = 11
Last Week = 124
New Total = 135

How the Commish failed to arrive at the correct total points is six of one, a half dozen of the other.
He failed to correct Lindsay's incorrect points total from week 10, whether it be an error in addition or an oversight is of little importance. Bottom line her point total was still wrong in the week 11 results.

Omahahahahahaha was correct in his conclusion if not his explanation. Lindsay's incorrect point total was caused by an addition error, not the absence of adding an additional point.
Her corrected total for week 10 was 105, for week 11 112. That will show up in this week's previous points.

Everyone remembers that last week (Week 10) our esteemed Commissioner managed the seemingly impossible - he arrived at the wrong score for all 18 members.
Fortunately, the correction simply required that he add one win to each member's total. Surely he could manage that, couldn't he?
Alas, not our Commissioner.
He managed to screw up the score for poor Lindsay, who by all appearances is a sweet, loving, young lady deserving of much better treatment from the Commish.
The Commish didn't credit her with the one additional win from Week 10, leaving her, once again, one win short in her Week 11total.
Lindsay went 6-7 in Week 11 with one bonus point for 7 total points. Her last week total should have been 105 for a Week 11 total score of 112.

Kirk Honored
GoZone member Kirk Severance has been honored by the Connecticut Association of Streets and Highways recently.
Kirk received the award for his "dedication in more than 30 years of service and participation to this association."
He is the Highway Commissioner for the town of Granby, Conn. He has been a member representing Granby in the association for over 34 years.
Approximately 165 towns in Connecticut participate in this Association.Every state has an association of some form.
Kirk is also on the Board of Directors of the New England chapter.
Although Kirk did not thank the GoZone or the Commish, The Senior Advisory Council congratulates him on a job well done for over three decades. The vote was 3-2.
Kirk at the Awards Banquet.
You are welcome
Sharing the cellar with Diane is an honor. My favorite Severance, sorry Kirk you are tied for second, and I both expect to leap-frog to the top starting today! Di you are so right because there is first and then all the rest! Nobody remembers the bridesmaid! No trophies for that and imagine if there were! The Commish would be invoicing every week! Speaking of the Commish or maybe Guido, it seems my Thursday pick was changed possibly after the game. This could involve a consult with The VP of League Everything Omaha! However, he made need to recuse himself due to his tainted remarks recently against poor Deland. Time will tell.

New Record for Futility
Congrats to the Commissioner!
Our Commissioner has set a new record for futility in compiling the Week 10 stats.
He has managed what seems an impossible feat - he has miscalculated all 12 totals!
Yep, he arrived at the wrong total on all 12 members, including his own!!!!
To keep it simple, he has missed everyone's won-lost record for the week by exactly one win.
Therefore, each member's points total should be increased by one point.

Nebraska Nonsense
Well, it appears Cuz brandishes a dirty, left-handed knife to defend himself. Chappie once advised me to stay clear of that cousin and Claremont in general. I never knew what he meant until one day at the camp I was chasing the Claremont Caper. Small rocks were the choice of weapon. Unfortunately as I lined him up and let one fly, Chappie was between the two of us. Yup, hit Dad square at the base of the head on the backside. He dropped to the ground passed out quicker than Cuz in the second half of the Go-Zone standings! I thought I was dead! I then knew what he meant. Cuz seems to forget that the results of the All-Star baseball league investigation at Uncanoonuc revealed a tiny magnet attached to the back of the disc on the 1 zone of many of his players. This was brought to light of course by Chappie’s expert background in law enforcement! However it was snuffed out at the urging of the matriarch Millie with one phrase “give the boy a chance”. Police logs do not lie! Judy was and is so much nicer.
Back to the matter at hand. Big Red will start her investigation today and did indicate that she may put Omaha in cuffs. I am not sure what that means! More later on this story I am sure.

Back to the matter at hand. Big Red will start her investigation today and did indicate that she may put Omaha in cuffs. I am not sure what that means! More later on this story I am sure.

Blah, blah, blah
Once again Deland shamelessly resorts to spouting lies about Omaha's domination of his cousins at the camp on Lake Unconoonuc during our childhood summer Stratomatic baseball games.
Nevermind that none other than my beloved Uncle Chappie himself was the commissioner, umpire-in-chief and referee given the thankless task of keeping his three whiney sons under control as a result of their tantrums after repeatedly getting hammered by Cousin Wayne.
Nevermind that elder rat rascal son Edmund Joseph O'Leary, Jr., aka Little Chappie, aka The Ghost, outright lied to innocent cousin Wayne about the meaning of the zone numbers on the baseball players' cards prior to the player draft.
He told me "10" was a home run zone, "1" was a strikeout zone, "7" was a ground out, when in fact 10 was a strikeout, 1 a home run, 7 a single, yada yada yada. In spite of this dishonesty, I showed my managerial skills and assembled an unbeatable team of superstars that won our "World Series" every year.
My leading slugger? Red Schoendiest, who had a "1", or home run zone, about as wide as the point of a needle.
And yet - And yet! Schoendiest hit more home runs than anybody, because of my skill at spinning the needle to stop at exactly the 12 o'clock position. My cousins would make me start my spin at every different location possible, and still I could expertly stop it at 12 o'clock.
So they protested.
So uncle Chappie was called in to explain to his sons in the nicest way possible, that they were
losers.
And now Deland, who by the way, was a little runt not really old enough to know who Ted Williams was, whines on and on about the lies told him by his older, delinquent brothers, long after Uncle Chappie shook my hand and declared me the champion.
This was repeated summer after summer.
So now Deland brings it up again.
And how is this relevant to our Commish's inability to make one and one equal two?
It isn't.
It just proves they are still losers.

Stats and Records???
League Owners,
An emergency meeting is in order to initiate yet another investigation as to who appointed or anointed Omaha As VP of anything much less Stats and Records. Surely the Commish and The Ghost can attest to Omaha single-handedly padding the stats of his players in the All-Star spinner baseball game played summers at Uncanoonuc! One harmless little miscalculation by Guido’s assistant and Omaha shamelessly berates the poor underworked and overpaid Commish! It has become quite evident that Omaha is out to overthrow the league dictatorship located in Ft. Myers FL. Do not let this happen! No more pencils or calculators shipped to Nebraska please! Where the hell is Guido when you need him! Oh, I forgot, he is on a slow train to nowhere collecting league dues for 2021. Big Red has offered to lead the investigation and I know she will stay close to the situation.

Shoddy Bookwork
Don't worry, Amy, I had already caught and corrected the Commish's shoddy bookwork. You now have a correct total of 92 points.
I knew it was too much to expect the Commish to go 3 weeks in a row without gumming up the figures.
He messed up Sean, Ryan & Nick's picks also, but I corrected them.
Fortunately, the GO Zone has a crack auditing department that is always keeping asuspicious watchful eye out for the Commish's sloppy efforts.
It's a full-time job...
It has been suggested to me by more than one member that this is more than mere carelessness.
Could these continuous slipups be more than, ahem, errors, but rather a calculated attempt to get the Commish back in the hunt?
Ever vigilant,
Omaha

Two in a Row
For the second straight week, I can certify that the Commish's (Week 8) Stats are correct.
Amazing what he can do under strict supervision and guidance.
