Weekly Rankings Update
What’s up, Grinders? Welcome to the Weekly Rankings Update! Unfortunately, I have to start off this week’s article with some bad news. Due to some copyright issues, I will no longer be able to stuff this article with random gifs and other nonsense. But hold back your tears, my friends! I will do my best to make up for the glaring lack of gifs with custom made memes and terrible puns! You shall be entertained!
In other news, there a few updates to the rankings this week. I explain most of them as I get to those sections, but the major difference this week is that the Aggregate Leaderboard is now using results from the MLB rankings instead of NBA, which certainly shakes things up a bit.
But enough of that, on to the rankings!
Rankings Breakdown this Week

Notes
Wow, what a jump up the rankings for Mirage88, huh? I don’t know about you, but I have this funny feeling that it has something to do with his 1, 2, 3 finish in the FanDuel Monster this past Monday. You don’t often see someone jump up so much in one week, but a finish like that will certainly speed up the process!

Notes
At this point in the MLB season, McJester is holding onto a very slim lead over the baseball GPP machine, stlcardinals84. While it might seem like a 2 horse race right now, I promise that there will be plenty of movement throughout the year, especially when football season starts up.

Notes
This will be the last NBA rankings update of 2014, because this is the last real week of DFS NBA this season. Which is really a good thing, because I’m pretty much out of ways to say “Yawn, Condia wins” at this point.
Obviously no one can compete with the volume Condia puts in, but now that he’s consulting for DraftDay I’m really interested to see if his volume drops in 2015. It should also be really interesting to see if anyone else shows up on the scene with his type of volume now that Daily is exploding as much as it has in the past year or so.

Notes
This is also the last update to the hockey leaderboard this season. I know you’re all sad, because that means this section of the article will be cut in a third from now on, and you won’t be able to enjoy as much of my witty humor terrible puns, but deal with it.

Notes
This is the first time I’ve used the MLB seasonal towards the Aggregate leaderboard instead of NBA, and the results are rather interesting.
Without his massive NBA volume, Condia drops from 1 all the way to 14th on the list, while Dink steps up from 2 to #1. The rest of the top 10 is mostly the same, except for Keith3101, who goes from not even on the NBA Aggregate leaderboard to #9 now that baseball season has started.
