Final Results | Analyst of the Year V
Analyst of the Year V
With only two minutes left in the season, Craft Brew led by half a length as The Strategist had two Picks locked in ties in the waning moments of their games. As in Season II, The Strategist’s fortune in The Marathon of the Ass turned on the legs of field goal kickers.
Could the most inexperienced (Steelers) and most experienced (Seahawks) run The Strategist to an unprecedented second Analyst of the Year? And the winner is…
The Strategist! With an improbable close to the season after six straight weeks of broken Trifectas, she gains her 7th Trifecta and 37th Correct Pick. Trailing only by a half length, Craft Brew sweeps past the competition for the Place with 7 Trifectas and 35 Correct Picks.
Two-time Crown winner in Season V, Big Tuna Shows in the Analyst of the Year with 6 Trifectas and 36 Correct Picks. In the Marathon until the final hours of the season, Roxy Trot ends the season in fourth place with 5 Trifectas and 36 Correct Picks.
B-Reezy and Jimmy V tie for fifth place with 5 Trifectas and 33 Correct Picks, comfortably ahead of Wise Orangutan in seventh place with 5 Trifectas and 30 Correct Picks. in eighth place, Little Tuna (4 Trifectas and 30 Correct Picks) qualifies for a Home Team Claim in the Super Trifecta Bowl.
Sponge Mom (3 Trifectas and 30 Correct Picks), The Bookie (2 Trifectas and 26 Correct Picks), and Atwork (2 Trifectas and 22 Correct Picks) end in the final positions — without a Claim for the postseason.

Analyst of the Year V
The Strategist has struggled to earn a Trifecta for six straight weeks and we now have the most contested Marathon of the Ass in the history of sports analysis!
The Strategist (6 Trifectas and 34 Correct Picks) finds herself in a tight contest for as Craft Brew (6 Trifectas and 32 Correct Picks) catches her down the home stretch. The Strategist holds the lead by the slim margin of 2 Correct Picks, but the hard-charging Craft Brew in second place has the momentum!
Still in the contest with 5 Trifectas each, Roxy Trot falls to third place with 34 Correct Picks over Big Tuna (33 Correct Picks) in fourth and B-Reezy in fifth (31 Correct Picks).
Each of these five Analysts have paths to Win or Place in the Marathon of the Ass in the final week!
None of the Analysts below fifth place can catch Roxy Trot in third place, so they are all out of reach of the Winner’s Circle.
With 4 Trifectas each, Jimmy V (30 Correct Picks) is in sixth place, ahead of Little Tuna (28 Correct Picks) in seventh and Wise O. (27 Correct Picks) in eighth place.
Sponge Mom, The Bookie and Atwork are unable to catch Wise O. in eighth place due to being 2 or more Trifectas behind him. Each must Win The Seeder’s Cup to retain their Home Team steed in the Super Trifecta Bowl.
