Part of me didn't want to be the first person to be offered a chance to post their thoughts on their pick going down. But when Parkinson's induced Pneumonia opens a door, I would be a fool not to take advantage of it. Yesterday I learned that, for the first time in my life, Carl Karcher will not be in it. Most of you know my love affair with Carl's Jr. I remember picking Carl for my team like it was 12 days ago. It felt like I was asking a good friend to run a year long race with me, only with me trying to leave him for dead once we started running. Now I know what last year's teams felt when they too got the news. A little joy, a little sadness, a little guilt, and the knowledge that you are one ahead.

Congrats! I'm so glad to see the 'Pool get off to such a morbid start. There promises to be fierce competition in the future!
Carlisle, now comes the challenge. As I know all too well, now that you're in the lead, everyone will be gunning for you and you've got a big bulls-eye on you. Or is that a good thing in this game?
