Right now, momentum is in our favor.  My Ruck-specific “Nemesis” team is currently #3 among all teams that play at the Ruck, and #10 overall among all bars that are hosting “Catch the Mania” trivia.  Barring a collapse of epic proportions, we are a lock for the final game. That being said… we are not…

Last week was a major accomplishment for my Ruck-specific Nemesis team.  Out of a possible 90 points, we achieved 82, which tied for the most points last week against all of the “Catch the Mania” trivia teams.  It also vaulted us to ninth place overall (we’re still third among all the Ruck teams, behind the…
