This is it Rocky Bowlers ...

You made it to the Fictitious BCS National Championship game. Rocky bowlers can rest easy that our Champion was decided before this farce of a game.  But, there is still plenty of prize money to be decided tonight.  So, you will need to stay tuned.  The Final results for both outcomes of the game 2nite have been posted on the Blog.

Congratulations to Steve "The Soss" Sossaman, aka "I'm Sauced man".  That's really what it takes to win the Rockybowl after all. Just a few drinks and few picks with precision placement of the 35 and the 1.  Maybe Steve could share his strategy with us.  Dart Board?  Spin the bottle?  Some sort of drinking game to determine winners?  In any event, all he needs to really do is bring up the Rockybowl website and say "Scoreboard baby, scoreboard".

And then there is the Toilet Bowl winner, Brad "Brother who works" Ericksen who edged out Kendall "It's good to be a Viking' Dunkley and CJ 'Showtime' Stafford for the bottom spot.  "Showtime" becomes the first Rockybowler on record to finish 2nd one year and 2nd to last the next. Sorry, no prize money for being the second to last loser. 

What can I say about 'Brother who Works",  the first Rocky Bowler to win the Bobbi Breeze, The overall Rocky bowl Championship and the Toilet Bowl.  You are good man, thanks for playing. He predicted his fate at the Rocky Bowl party, and he was right.  He was wrong about Wisconsin winning the Rose Bowl, but hey, he won the Toilet Bowl.  It sounds like he needs to take some time off of work next year to make his picks,  Or perhaps he can ask his twin brother "Underworked" to make his picks for him.

As always, we hope you have all had a good time participating in the Rockybowl and following the blog and Tweets.  If you didn't follow @Rockybowl this year on Twitter, there is always next year to make it into the social media scene.

If you have any suggestions for making the Rockybowl better in the years to come, please Tweet to @Rockybowl with hashtag #rockybowl, add your comments to this blog post (come on you can do it) or send your comments and feedback the old fashioned way to rockybowl@live.com.  Sorry "Sis", no letters sent through  the US Postal service will be accepted.

Happy New Year Everyone!

Jim "TopCoug" Stafford.

I was reading in the Australian Herald Sun (like I often read) about Psychopaths... and which Occupations they gravitate towards... it was interesting to see who was ranked #11 in the ALL TIME GREATEST Psychopath Occupations... Maybe I did edit it for spelling (you know how they spell down under)... but in now way did I add to this list... (link)

I DID think it odd that the only Twits who “tweeted” were the commissioners, with the most common “tweet” being, “ping.. uh... hello... echo.. echo... echo... sibilance...”

===========================
A leading psychotherapist last month warned Australian bosses they need to implement strategies to manage workplace psychopaths because they exist in most large companies.
"They don't suffer any guilt or remorse, or in fact they enjoy the suffering of other people," Dr John Clarke told a conference in Tasmania.
The book said psychopaths are drawn to and thrive in roles where people need the ability to make “objective, clinical decisions divorced from feelings”, the Business Insider reported.

Top jobs for psychopaths:
1. CEO
2. Lawyer
3. Media (TV/radio)
4. Salesperson
5. Surgeon
6. Journalist
7. Police officer
8. Clergyperson
9. Chef
10. Civil servant
11. Rockybowl Bloggers

On the other hand, psychopaths are likely to steer clear of professions that require empathy, human interaction and feelings.

Least likely professions for psychopaths:
1. Care aide
2. Nurse
3. Therapist
4. Craftsperson
5. Beautician/Stylist
6. Charity worker
7. Teacher
8. Creative artist
9. Doctor (non-Surgeon)
10. Accountant
