You Pick'Em: Week 5 Took Its Toll on the Fans; Poz31 for the Win! Mtneer32 Opens Up Lead for the Money;

(Sept. 26, 2012) - It was an incredible hard week for Viva Loudoun You Pick'Em football fans as only two out of 153 fans went 1-0 with Poz31 of Sterling edging out Justin Partlow of Ashburn for the weekly win.

Poz31 will get a Viva Loudoun one-of-a-kind t-shirt as well as a gift certificate from Roosters Men's Grooming Center of Goose Creek Village, good for a free haircut or shave!

As for the season-long standings, Mtneer32 of Charles Town has a two game lead with a 47-3 sparkling mark. Second plac Mr. Dubya of Sterling is 45-5. Two games back of Mr. Dubya is a pack of seven fans tied for third.

Our fans are playing for an overall season prize of $100 to the winner (plus $100 to their favorite Loudoun high school) with second place netting $50 and third place $25.

The LoCo Media Experts saw a big shake-up as Washington Post (for at least one more day!) reporter Paul Tenorio jumped to the top on his way out of town as he heads for a new job at the Orlando Sentinel. There was also movement at the bottom (OK, that sounded weird, didn't it ...) as Jason Rufner of Gameday Magazine (do you think he moonlights as Fetch?) vacated the basement and Dave Scarangella of Dulles District not only trails but we understand he is still stuck at Oatlands trying to leave the parking lot from Saturday's XC meet.

The LoCo Media Experts are playing not only for glory but the overall season winner will have $100 donated to their favorite charity!

And a super big shout out to the sponsor of our You Pick'Em Gayle King of CENTURY 21 Redwood Realty ... her generous support allows us to fund the cash prizes! So give her a thumbs up the next time you see her at a local game!
