This Week in West: April 14 – …

West region fans, it deeply saddened me to punt last week’s West segment to Regional (who did a great job, btw, give the guy a hand), especially The Battle of Sixth Street looming, but I had a hard time telling the bossman, “yo, I know you pay me to do this, but I gotta take…

4/14 Power Rankings (M)

This is a friendly reminder to always save your work, especially when working in a terrible website like WordPress.  In my effort to post Men’s and Women’s Power Rankings at the same time, I got the Men’s Power Rankings erased.  Since I am upset and have other work to do, I will not be providing…
