In a seven-point league, odds are that if you take five points each week, you stand a good chance of winning the championship, and that’s more or less what “Size 11’s” have been doing this season. Last week was another case in point, as we took five points from “Pretty Much Average,” and, as things turned out, my team improved its position by one point, now sitting on top by three points.
This week is the position week, and the second-place team is “Fantastic Four.” We win the league championship outright if we lose no more than 4.5 points to them (possible by losing two games, but winning one by enough to tie for total), and we still win a share of the championship if our opponents take two games and total. Any more, and we could slide as far back as third place (which can happen if we get swept and “Where’s My Team?” sweeps “4 Marksmen”).

In a seven-point league, a 5-2 score is also possible if a team wins one game and the two teams tie for the other two; in that case, the team winning a game also takes total.
