    Brutal loss yesterday. Had a W8, took Philly Union win or draw. They led 2-1 after 67, and conceded two goals to lose 3-2.
    Noles is now in position to win with a W9.

    "Only on SFTC" nominees of the day:

    1) RSL blows its first 2-0 lead in club history
    2) Balk and error lead to lone 8th inning run
    3) Cabrera and Fielder fail to get a hit in the 1st, and remain hitless for the rest of the game.

    4) First place HJK fails to beat Mariehamn for just the third time in their last 15 meetings.

    I blew my W7 this morning on tennis, not realizing five easy props were posting. Went 5 for 5 but it doesn't help much.

    I also missed a tennis pick because it kept getting pushed back and I assumed it wouldn't finish in time for soccer.

    Why bother with this? You might as well put your fingers in a meat grinder and crank slowly.

    Pretty absurd. They played to a draw and then had penalty kicks to decide it. Whatever buffoon runs the game decided it in favor of the 'win' rather than the 'win or draw'.

    I'm locked into a pick I don't like with my W10.

    The month will end anyway, but I was hoping to get a higher streak. I couldn't cancel out of it because my Internet went down.

    I took AOR than USA/Russia in gymnastics, but USA closed at like -220 for gold and Russia was like +375 for gold.

    Lost my W10 due to lost Internet.

    Still, my best month ever, with a winning percentage that was over 75% until just now.

    Leaderboard went heavy on Flipkens under 4.5 games won.

    Flipkens had 4 games won, was up 2-1 in the second set and serving, and then lost five straight games, including getting broken three times.

    This sucks. Tiger win or tie was an easy pick, but I took tennis instead because ESPN claimed tennis would be starting before 2 (meaning golf wouldn't end in time). The people on the discussion board were convinced it wouldn't end in time.

    I'm on an L1 and missed an easy win
