QT's bottom looks good to everyone behind her

Picks frontrunner QT Pie finished alone at the bottom for the first time this year, and that was great news for the six people trailing her with just a few weeks left.

Her comfortable first-place lead was trimmed to only five games as Mark slipped into the second position ahead of D.J.  He is aiming to become the third repeat champ in Picks history, while Girlie has thoughts of her first title.

Blaine's veteran comeback picked up steam as he cut four games off an 11-game deficit.  His 14th title run looks on schedule.

Don't count out the dynamic duo of Li'l Girl and Lolly Bird, who combined to go 21-7 on Sunday.

But you can count out Pa, who needs a miracle and then some to climb the mountain he's facing.  His home-team strategy has crashed and burned in a year when road teams win half the time.
