Captain Sev Brown’s ‘I’m An Eggplant’ knew coming into Week Four that they would need to knock off the two seed and the one seed to earn a chance to dance with the three seed and complete an improbable, and likely unprecedented title-snatching upset trifecta. Sure enough, Zach Salt led a successful ‘stun and done’ run through back-to-back bracket busters, setting up a Salt v Salt showdown in the Final, with the six seed Cinderellas hoping to cap their crazy Cup run with another pair of underdog overcomes…

While still alive, and surely still ‘spectacular’, Captain Ryan Karns’ Teal stubbed a 2-0 toe in the Winners’ Bracket Final, with Red’s Salt & Silas Show™ shoving them aside for a spot in the big dance. If team ‘bountiful chest’ can pass a Week Four test against the winner of Olive and Purple, they will have their chance to bounce (and jiggle) back, and avoid a booby prize finish to a bodacious season.

So, apparently, ‘The Little Jerry’ is an episode that features Kramer buying a rooster to enter into cock fights, and he calls said cock ‘Little Jerry Seinfeld’ (for some reason). Sorry, fans of the show…I know this is painful exposition here…bear with me. Anyhooooo, Captain Geoff Downes’ namesake ‘Little Cherry Seinfeld’ knocked off the two seed in overtime to advance to a showdown with Teal in the Winners’ Bracket final, with a ticket to the big dance on the line. This is Perks v Kelly, Salt v Schlatter, and just all-around great team v all-around great team….Week Three of the playoffs is going to be clucking amazing!

Captain Josh Tran’s ‘Pulp Can Move, Baby!’ and Captain Ian Crooks’ ‘Midnight Muffin Monsters’ swallowed the hard truth that they are definitely not the breakfast of champions, after choking down a loss on the last Sunday of regular season play. A win for Black, and even just a draw for Orange would have been enough to earn a seat at the playoff luncheon this Sunday, but, alas, their opponents were just hungrier…
