Cornballers Hold On To Standings Lead

Cornballers (Ellis Kunka) continued to lead the standings, taking 21 points Thursday, but there was a major shakeup below them.

Nordique Combined (Brian Schwartz) moved into second with the biggest day of the Games for any team so far, winning 79.2 points last night. As was speculated on this site last night, Canada took the 50 point gold in women's hockey and South Korea won 25 with the figure skating gold. A silver from USA Freestyle Skiing completed the comeback. With Canada men's hockey still alive, they're now only 33 points behind Cornballers.

Our former second place team, Fightin' Ovechkins (Tim Lavoie), got just a cross country bronze and moved down to third. Da Nang Dynamos (John Binz), a top team throughout the past two weeks, was totally shut out and moved down to fifth. Banker's Club (Zach Chromiak) remained in fourth by taking gold with Norway's cross country relay and silver with Japan figure skating.

Also winning gold was Buck-Toothed Rabbit Bitches (Brittany B.) who took a surprising gold/silver combo with USA Nordic Combined.
