As if this weekend's games against DU(D) didn't need any more hype, the Tigers held on to their #1 ranking in all the rankings, despite only picking up two ties this weekend. The Pios dropped to #4 after getting a buckeye stuck in their throat Saturday night.

Uncaged Notes:
If you've been reading this blog regularly, you probably noticed that the content has gone down a bit the past two weeks. No I haven't gotten lazy, I just happened to move across the state and am still getting situatd no desk, furniture or internet at my place and working 10 hrs a day, 4 days a week kind of puts a damper on work on the blog. I know you're concerned (insert sarcasm here), but the blog is in no danger of dying, it's just laying low for a bit while I get settled. Once the house is all set up the content will come storming back. So the DU(D) content will be a little light this time, but it will come back soon!
