This is the second round time table, if matches are shown on free TV, that's mentioned. Tuesday, October the 29th: 18.00 CET: Offenbach - Karlsruhe Augsburg - Schalke Leverkusen - Elversberg Leipzig - St Pauli 20.45 CET: Stuttgart - Lautern Regensburg - Fürth Wolfsburg - Dortmund (live on ARD) Köln - Kiel Wednesday, October the 30th: 18.00 CET: Freiburg - Hamburg Hertha BSC - Heidenheim Frankfurt - Gladbach Paderborn - Bremen 20.45 CET: Bielefeld - Union Dresden - Darmstadt Mainz - Bayern (live on ZDF) Hoffenheim - Nürnberg So the TV stations decided to show Bayern and Dortmund, how unbelievable creative, since it's not like the always show these teams. Of course I'm aware that the two of them are the clubs with the biggest following. Yet, ARD and ZDF are financed by public money with the explicite order to reflect diversity of opinion and society. That why broadcasting fees are collected,wit explicite mention of minority opinions and intersts for crying out loud! How about not running for ratings , if you're financed by a fee also collected from people, who aren't fans of the two biggest clubs, for a change? The cup's attractive because of possible upsets everybody is longing for- they should have shown two out of the matches at Offenbach, Dresden, and Bielefeld respectively. That is without even mentioning that those three clubs could do with a bit of recognition gor eliminating clubs from leagues higher in the pyramide in the first round! If it has to be matches between their precious Buli teams that they show Frankfurt Gladbach would've been a good alternative between clubs, that both have over 100k members! Well, at least, Bayern and Dortmund play away at Buli clubs and don't have home matches against 2.Liga clubs, saying that because the TV stations had shown the latter, as well, despite the almost inexistant potential for an upset these matches would have had. Rant over!

Nonetheless, it still didn't put off @6666 from attaining the highest score of the week, getting 17 points from the remaining 9 games. That meant he shot up to 1st place and now leads @nawoo by two points. The other 2 players in the top 4 swapped places too - @RandoEFC overtaking @Rucksackfranzose after outscoring him by 3 points and getting the 2nd highest score of the week (16 pts). There's a little bit of a gap forming after the top 4, with 3 players - @Viva la FCB / @Azeem / @Spike - all now on 46 points. Just one behind them is @Tommy who got 14 points. @CaaC (John) takes up the impressive feat of not getting a single outcome correct and the only points he gained were for actually just getting some predictions in...
