Tourney Game, Final Round: [grumble], [grumble]
It was not to be for your loyal blog host. As Uberschuck pointed out in the comments to the last recap, this has been a most unusual tournament game. We've been doing this thing for a few years now, first by email among friends and now through blogs. This is the first one any of us can recall...
