    Shamrocks, Shuai 'n Sharapova St.Patrick's Day Contest

    Details coming this evening when I finish scheming this up. I will tell you ahead of time it will involve things related only to Maria Sharapova's match against Shuai Peng. Should be ridiculous.

    Still about an hour to get your entry in. Right now, five players [including me] in this one. Tough to rummage up traffic during the Big Dance.
