Top players don't care and the matches are fixed. Anybody who picked Janowicz shouldn't even be allowed to play anymore though.

Pray tell, why is that? He already pulled two upsets so I said WTF...34 points comes in handy when my "safe" picks blew up early.

It's just a silly pick. Nobody in their right mind would actually think Janowicz had a chance of winning. I understand that's part of this game though so congrats on the win haha!

It was what one might call a power play? Why is this league called power play? I don't get the name at all! Li shouldn't abandon us after naming the league.
 
It's just the nature of the game. I know I've made some semi serious/silly picks in the past that worked out, so I'm not hating. Just a weird tourney. Some top players losing would be expected after a long hard season, but not given the matchups involved and form said players had been in.

LOL.....It was smart of them to see the tank coming. The ones should not be playing are the guy likes us who tried to deny that Murray will tank.

I agree. I really don't understand the name of the game lol. I think it should be changed to something else.

Don't think Janowicz is going to win at all, but purely because I'm screwed if he does...I have to go with it

Crazy tournament really...
