Round 3: Pool Standings

With each Round 3 pick worth 6 points, those who correctly predicted a United v. Chelsea final now occupy the top three spots of the table. It should be noted that if two teams should finish tied for 1st place, there will be no second place prize, and the spoils will be split evenly among the two. This year the 3 bonus points for picking the overall winner at the start may be a deciding factor. Manchester United had a heap of early support with Banana Island, Big Bend, Cantona, the Continentalist, and Eastern Influence selecting them to win in Moscow. Once again, the Terrible Twos prove themselves to be cagey mavericks as they were the only team to pick Chelsea to win it all. As for those of us who are mathematically eliminated from the competition... I guess we just hope for an entertaining match to wrap it up. I will publish the post for the Final Pick a week or so before the event which will be played on Wednesday, May 21st.

This is why this is such a great place to live... The headline in the Jerusalem Post today:

- Israeli coach says will get drunk if his underdog club finishes atop of Premier League, Champions League.

Hell, why not?

i think chelsea is going to end the season with the blues... and no trophies. after today's heartless showing and man u rolling with momentum i think they will have a tough time taking the CL title. and if that's the case, a grant is done for.
