Today was a grand day (see the video) of presenting the 2008 Moore Cup winner with the trophy. The 2007 winner presented the 2008 wiener with the trophy:

Dwayne has truly lost sight of the purpose of this website.
For the safety of the entire family, he should immediately be voted off the island. We have always known he was at least a little off kilter, however, he is now completely off his rocker.
Who’s with me?
(I can hear the roar of the crowds now…)
VOTE DWAYNE OFF! VOTE DWAYNE OFF! VOTE DWAYNE OFF! VOTE DWAYNE OFF!

I hereby officially demand a re-count. Dwayne has proven himself to be faithful on all accounts. I, on the other hand, will swindle my way out of or into anything. I believe that Dwayne Sr. should have won and I should have been in last place, based on my pithy research methods.
UPDATE: Emily! When will you ever learn????

Becca has emailed the final standings to me this morning. We can now, officially, declare Jennifer the wiener winner. Oh yeah! Well, at least Emily didn’t win. That is all I really care about. Of course, she was asking for me to bow down to her in the last post - what was up with that?
Final Standings:
Jenny (43-21)
Becca (41-23)
Dad (39-25)
Emily (38-26)
Mom (36-28)
Dwayne Sr (36-28)
Dwayne Jr (28-36)
I am actually very glad to see that Emily made it above me in the rankings. That warms my heart after such a sad display from a few days ago….
UPDATE: This is Jennifer’s second MooreMadness Cup. Her last win [or the last time she was a wiener - did she ever really stop?] came 10 years ago in the first official MooreMadness competition. Way to go Jenny!!

I vote that I have to bow down before Dwayne whether he wins or loses. After all, I am a mere peasant before him.
UPDATE: See Emily….I told you that it pays to be the owner of the domain name! [DHE]

It seems that MooreMadness has been a bit quiet this year. Where is the trash talk that I have grown to love? Are we going to need to make this more interesting? Do we need to institute some type of bracket wager similar to that of Mike and Mike in the Morning? If so, I vote that if Emily loses, she has bow down (physically) before the winner each time she sees said winner and say “I bow low before a true champion!” for an entire year.

Jennifer 43-18
Rebecca 41-20
Dad 39-22
Emily 37-24
Mom 36-25
Dwayne Sr 36-25
Dwayne Jr 27-34

Should I go ahead and prepare my acceptance sppech for the Moore Cup? You all might as well just save face and give up now. Consider this my official demand for you to withdraw your brackets. Do it now and I won’t gloat too much.
Sincerely,
THE Dr. Emily K. Moore, J.D. Esq. (No, I don’t know what it all means, it’s just longer than Dwayne’s. Again, all that matters.)

Becka - I read your reply to Dwayne about the whole math thing. I cannot believe you have turned on me. It is officially on. Remember Becka, Mom and Dad could still ground you for the things I know. Think carefully before going down this path…

What is important to note here is that I don’t really care that I’m not in first. All that matters is that I am BEATING Dwayne. It appears that he isn’t much competition for me in this. But really what did I expect? Dwayne, you have dropped your ice cream…

Why in the world is there a Clemson banner at the top? UGH… They didn’t even make it, did they?
Mar 22 2008
Okay, from what I can see. Here are the standings
Dwayne - I will have to call you about Dwayne jr’s bracket. I cannot read it on the computer, or when I print it out. There are only a few I cannot figure out who was picked….
1. Rebecca 26-7
2. Dad 24-9
3. There is a tie
a. Emily 23-10
b. Jennifer 23-10
4. There is a tie

Just for Becca -
The 2008 Brackets are up. I will be updating this later, but Becca is still in first with a different record. She is 26-7, FOR THE RECORD. Also, FYI, Becca will now be keeping up with the records and emailing them to me at the end of each day for posting.

Contrary to popular opinion (**BECCA**), it is not that I have been reluctant to post the standings. I have been a bit too busy to keep up with the brackets lately…. So if anyone wants to manage the brackets (wins/losses) and let me know so I can post them, then email me! I would be happy to pass that torch on to you!
Without further adieu:
