current official foosball rankings

1. p.o.B
2. The Law
3. JerS
4. COACH
5. TGuG

The topsy-turvy foosball season continues. The Law, having a hot week with wins over all the top contenders, nearly wrestled the top ranking away from p.o.B. But in a heated mid-week contest, p.o.B came out on top, and with wins over JerS, moves into the #1 position. COACH continues to amaze, clearly demonstrating that mental toughness can make up for aging reflexes. As the grind of the season begins to take its toll, many pollsters believe that toughness will reign supreme.

current official foosball rankings

1. JerS
2. p.o.B
3. The Law
4. COACH
5. G Sod

The rankings have been a challenge in the last week. With almost daily play, upsets occur often. The top five remain intact, though TGuG made a strong bid for consideration by defeating COACH midweek. By the end of the week G Sod put TGuG down, denying a top five ranking. COACH threatened to drop out of the top five altogether, but a Monday manhandling of p.o.B kept COACH alive. In the end, JerS took two out of three from a reeling p.o.B to take over the top spot heading into the long weekend, while The Law was laid on COACH to solidfy the third spot. Since this is the week of Thanksgiving, let us give thanks to foosball, and to whomever delivered the foosbball table!
