Weekly Rankings Update: The Olympics

rankings trophy

Hello Daily Fantasy Sports fans! Welcome to this week’s edition of the Weekly Rankings Update. This weekend marks the beginning of the Sochi Olympics. Sochi is apparently making Brazil look like a welcome locale and Greek leadership look like upright and genius people. One thing we do know, is that the torch will not run out of Russian Oil. In honor of the 22nd Winter Olympiad, lets take a look at some great Olympic memories.

Condia and msidla still reside atop the TPOY. It’s a little too early in the year to call this race. This is a tight race, much like speedskating in Winter Olympics on Commodore 64 used to be.

Condia is leading the NBA standings. No big shake-ups in the NBA rankings this week, though after the big NBA tournaments this past week on DS and FD, we could see some new faces moving up the board. Probably the only chance to take down Condia would be a Tanya Harding-esque whacking.

Can Troll4mvp, AlSmizzle or Maxdalury give Condia a run for his money this month? The monthly standings have already been kept a little closer after one week due to the new limits on games at FanDuel. Will this give others a shot to keep up? We will have to see.

An “excellent” Gold Medal goes to the winner!

Curtis Brodzina (DillingerFour)

Curtis DillingerFour Brodzina considers himself the Dave Barry Rick Reilly of DFS. He tries to find the humorous side of the sports world. An avid Penn State, Broncos and Pens fan, he fades Kunitz way too often. RotoGrinder’s own Cal had these poignant words for him as he was lamenting his last place finish in the RotoGrinders FreeRoll Bowl: “Nobody expects you to win D4, they just expect you to be funny.”
