Surprise Entries!
In a surprise move, 4 semi-finalists have dropped out of the race! They have stated the following reasons for their departure:
Phil - “What? I don’t get a ring for winning this crap? Forget it.”
Andrew - “I didn’t realize I would actually have to compete against the black people. I thought they had their own bracket.”
Samuel L. - “I ain’t playin’ with no Micheal Jackson! Brother likes touchin’ little boys!”
Jesse - “My contract with Satan prohibits me from carrying any other title. I have some paternity tests to take anyway.”
Alan Jackson and Reggie Jackson have steeped up to the plate to take on the heavily favored Janet and Michael. More to come as it develops.

that seems like kind of a cheap, er, lazy, er, fat, er, drunk way out of doing four more showdowns just for that, look at this…http://www.buriedlede.com/projects/sweater.html.

and i believe the correct phrase is “surpirse exits” instead of “surprise entries”

That is your opinion - at least we have mullets in the competition now!

Message to the editor of Blatti.net:
Your recent “Battle of the Jacksons” shenanigans has irreparably damaged my credibility with my co-workers since I had to cancel the office pool and refund all of the “Battle of the Jacksons” pool money. I also feel I should report the final odds on the individual Jacksons:
Phil Jackson: 8-1
Andrew Jackson: 10-1
Samuel L Jackson: 6-1
Jesse Jackson: 4-1
Janet Jackson: 3-2
Michael Jackson: 3-2
I must say, I will think long and hard before starting another betting pool based on Blatti.net, Thank you very much!

Swindled in Saint Charles,
I have no apology for you. I have cried out for your help again and again - yet you send nothing. Personally, I am amazed it has come this far.
