We'll see, I remember a few boxers talking like that. But then again they didn't use the word "might", so there must be some uncertaintly there :)

Sadly (for you) the shot I'm after requires no shutter lag so I'll have to resort to the 1Dn rather than the phone cam. Luckily (for you) I'm 'carp' at this!

I can't do this trashing when I'm currently 'carp' I wish you the best my friend (until the 10th of april that is ;)

Nope. This shot is right up there with my last Blue ribbon.

Even if it doesn't do well here, it's gonna sell like hot cakes on the stock market.

OK, here we go. In warmup to the real thing we find the following place finishings...

Qart with 8th in Low Key
sir bazz with 12th in Low Key
ursula with a 19th in Hands
pedro with 43rd in Low Key
Bear Music with 48th in Low Key
Rikki with a 73rd in Hands
Little King with 89th in Low Key
Judi with 118th in Low Key
mattmac with a 168th in Hands
Ecce Signum with 178th in Low Key

Man, I think the Qart/Bazz matchup is the headliner for the first round. I'll go on record as saying I picked Bazz to go the farthest of non-seeded contenders (it's too easy to pick the seeded ones), but I also said that it may be the worst prediction because he has to get past Qart first.

Bad pick doc.

Qart may win by default if I don't think of anything in the next few days.
