Probably my favorite part about Biggest Loser is the finale. Usually the at home contestants steal the show just because we have not seen them in so long. However, I really do enjoy breaking down the final four contestants mathematically to see who really has the best change. Without further ado, here are the final four...
Patrick - Height - 6'2". Starting weight - 400 . Last weight - 244. Age -28. My gut reaction is that this race is his to lose. Also, he has extra motivation since he has financial problems. With his age and motivation, 50% weight loss is easily attainable. At 6'2", I am guessing he weighs in at 190 at the finale. That is a 52.5% total fatloss. Again, 190 is not out of the realm for a 6'2" 28 year old. Let's see if anyone else has a chance to match this percentage.
Frado - Height - 6'0". Starting weight - 367 . Last weight - 221. Age -43. If anyone is catching Patrick, it is Frado. Also, he seemed to have the easiest time at home and it showed in his weight loss. He would have to get down to 174 to beat Patrick at 190. That is definitely a possibility. However if Patrick gets down to 185, Frado has to be 169. I predict Frado will be 180 at the finale weigh in.
Ada - Height - 5'6". Starting weight - 258 . Last weight - 167. Age -27. I love Ada and so does America. I would be SHOCKED if she did not get the votes to make the finale. With that being said, she doesn't have much of a chance. If Patrick makes it to 190, she would have to be at 122 to beat him. Ada is struggling a little at home. I think she is 135 at the final weigh in. She does not have much more weight to lose.
I am going out on limb...ok, not really. Ada will be voted into finale. Even if she is not, Elizabeth will not win anything. She started out at 244 lbs and is now 177. She needs to be 115 to have a chance. That is not happening. So, I guess I lied. I really only went through the finale three.
Anyway you slice it, I am excited for the finale.

LU and My Broncos
Well, I now have been to TWO LU games and they have lost both times. Yikes. Losing to Butler by 2, I can understand. Losing to Valpo at home by 10 is inexcusable. Lets hope they turn around this conference record fast. I do like that the season is in full swing. I enjoy going to games so much and I feel it keeps me young...until I see the college students...they look so YOUNG! ha.
Well, McDaniels was fired yesterday. I thought it was quite strange in timing. The Broncos have been such a good team for so long that a bottoming out is just not acceptable. I do think he got a little screwed. Two big things: Our defensive starters have missed 48 games so far this year (i.e if 4 starters miss all 12 games that is 48) including Elvis Dumervil who has been out all year. Yeah, he lead the nation in sacks last year. We were 7th in the nation last year and now are 29th. Our offense points per game has increase each year he was there. He is clearly getting fired for defensive play.
I also do not like that the Broncos hired a GM with no experience at the same time as they hired a coach with new experience. He should be fired too. McD also never lost his players. They were always in his corner. McD is gone nonetheless. It should be interesting who they bring in.
Over the last 20 season, this season will mark only the 4th time they had a losing record. The next coach has a lot to do and fast!
Happy Tuesday!

November, what happened!!!!!!!!
Wow, well November was an 0-fer for me. The last 10 days of November I spent in sunny Florida and lets just say coming back to SNOW FLURRIES was not the way I wanted to come back.
Seriously, SNOW FLURRIES!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to write up a post about the Magic-Heat game I went to. It really will be about how impressive the new Amway Center is. I mean any stadium that has 3 bars in it is A-OK with me. I first need to figure out how to get the pics off of my wife's camera.
Tonight the UNDEFEATED, 7-0 Loyola Ramblers take on the lowly 3-2 Butler Bulldogs. Sadly, this is my first game of the year. I am super excited though. Last year, the place was PACKED for this game and we lost by 2. For those of you who don't remember, Butler was in the national championship game last year.
Stat of the day: Last time Loyola started a season 7-0 was 1962-1963. Why is that important? Well, Loyola is the 1963 NCAA Champs....start believing....
