Hello Again!

by smbrannan

Yes this is sooner than expected, but I thought you should know that we have one more participant.

An entry form was submitted to me last week, but went MIA so I didn’t include it in the initial listing.  Welcome Ana G who picked NED to go all the way.

That means that the pot is $10 bigger, so maybe an extra latte for the victors.  Here is an updated version of your picks, including Ana.

PS, one rule that I forgot to mention….

  • You can’t claim 3rd prize (for being in the lead after the group matches) and also claim first or second place.   Third prize is intended to share the wealth (such as it is) with someone who has a promising start, but chokes in the elimination rounds.

PSS, I haven’t watched a single football/soccer “fixture” since the World Cup.  But now I remember how baffled I am by the apparent arbitrary nature of the referee seeing a legitimate tackle, a foul/free kick and a yellow card.   I honestly can’t see much difference between them.  Can anyone enlighten me?

PSSS, I miss the vuvuzelas!!!

PSSSS, Among the 47 entries are 13 CIBC drones,  10 slaves of other financial institutions and 24 normal people.
