Finkle & Einhorn succumb to The Apes, 145.81-82.11

There's no sugarcoating it, Finkle & Einhorn underdelivered, at least compared to projections, as The Apes came out on top with a 145.81-82.11 victory. The Apes never trailed in this one after earning a 6.89-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind David Montgomery (18.6 points) and Troy Reeder (12). Jalen Hurts (214 Pass Yds, 44 Rush Yds) and the Green Bay Packers defense (10 Pts Allowed, 206 Yds Allowed) did their part for Finkle & Einhorn in the loss. The Apes (12-5) will look to get another W against FriendsOfDonCherry, while Finkle & Einhorn (11-6) will meet The Replacements in an effort to develop some positive momentum.
