Schadenfreud?
The Germans have a kind of cool term, schadenfreud. It means taking comfort/delight in the misery of others. Oh, those kooky Germans!
I bring up the term because I came away from Week 8 a loser. Jason had the opportunity to come away a winner or a loser depending on his final game. I don't take delight that hs lost his last game, but, well, you know, I am German.
Jason's Week 8 results:

Oh how I long for the glory days of week 5. What a wonderful time that was. Even if it was just fake money, it's a lot more fun to be a winner.
