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!

current official foosball rankings

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

Making the jump to the #2 spot this week is The Law with a big Monday push, two solid wins over JerS and COACH. JerS drops two spots to #4, his loss to The Law today coming on the heels of a loss to COACH late last week. G Sod enters the rankings for the first time this season after knocking of then #5 TGuG. And many speculate that p.O.B. might be the best there is pound-for-pound, but plenty of foosball left to play.
