I was just thinking on how Jamie and Chase (2 of my pics) were doing, with both in top 5 or 6.. that is till about 5 minutes ago

I might be competing for the low score of the season. I might have to deduct points from Marley, lol.

I heard earlier that for Brad to win 3 in a row at this point, was 1 in 640 000 or something crazy like that.
And Ryu went with it ... nice pic Ryu !!!
